Palestinian vehicles damaged in suspected hate crime days after Israeli injured
Police say in a statement that several vehicles were damaged overnight in the Palestinian village of Hawara in the West Bank.
An investigation has been opened into the suspected hate crime.
The left-wing B’Tselem group blames the action on settlers, commenting that “the urge to commit hate crimes trumps the fears of coronavirus.”
The incident takes place after a series of reported rock-throwing attacks on Israeli vehicles near Hawara and four days after a 14-year-old Israeli teenager was seriously injured in one such suspected attack.
