Duma mayor accuses settlers of attempting to torch a home in the Palestinian village

Israeli settlers attempted to torch a home in the Palestinian village of Duma, hurling a Molotov cocktail into a children’s bedroom last night while the family was inside, the town’s mayor says in a statement.

The family managed to quickly put out the fire, which caused some damage to the home but no injuries.

There are no reports of arrests, which are highly rare in such incidents of settler violence that have been taking place across the West Bank daily.
