Footage shows settlers throwing Molotov cocktails while attacking Palestinian village

Settlers from the illegal outpost of Givat Ronen raided the nearby Palestinian village of Burin in the northern West Bank, hurling stones and Molotov cocktails at residents and their property, footage shows.

A 68-year-old woman was also injured in the attack, according to Palestinian media.

The IDF arrived at the scene, but made no arrests, instead ordering local Palestinians to return to their homes, according to the left-wing Israeli activist group Looking at the Occupation in the Eye.

While settler attacks have become exceedingly common over the past year, arrests in such cases are rare which has led Western countries to begin sanctioning violent extremists.
