Palestinian homes torched by extremist settlers in northern West Bank — report

Several Palestinian homes have been torched amid a reported Israeli settler raid in the northern West Bank village of Beit Imrin.

There are no immediate reports of injuries, but residents of the village have taken to social media to plead for help.

Earlier Tuesday, a settler reservist reportedly shot dead a 14-year-old Palestinian boy and a 32-year-old young man in the central West Bank village of al-Mughayyir. The reservist has been suspended from duty but not arrested — a step that is highly rare in cases of settler violence, which take place with near impunity on a daily basis.
