Settlers reportedly paint racist graffiti in West Bank town, set car on fire
Palestinians report that a group of Israeli extremists attacked the West Bank town of Turmus Ayya overnight, setting a vehicle on fire and leaving racist graffiti.
Pictures and video show a car with Israeli license plates smoldering with firefighters nearby, and a wall with “revenge, death to Arabs” daubed in black paint with a Jewish star in the town, which is about halfway between Ramallah and Nablus in the central West Bank.
