Settlers are filmed raiding the northern West Bank Palestinian village of Huwara under the apparent protection of the IDF.
Palestinian media claims that the settlers are hurling stones at houses and terrorizing locals, without any intervention by the army.
Footage shows the settlers dancing in apparent celebration of the ongoing strikes in Iran.
Several settler attacks have been reported over the past day, with no arrests made.
