Settlers filmed setting fire to field belonging to Palestinians in northern West Bank

Footage released by the Yesh Din rights group appears to show masked settlers who descended from the flashpoint settlement of Yitzhar setting fire to a field belonging to Palestinian farmers from the nearby village of Burqa for the second time in days.

The incident takes place near the Palestinian land encroached by settlers earlier this month in what sparked a clash during which an Israeli shot dead a 19-year-old Palestinian.
