Palestinian media outlets report that settlers overnight set fire to a mosque and several vehicles in the village of Jibiya in the Ramallah area.

Graffiti was reportedly also sprayed on the mosque, including the phrase “For the liberation of Jerusalem” — apparently in reference to Jerusalem Day being marked today.

No injuries are reported.
