Settlers set fire to vehicles, spray graffiti in West Bank village near Ramallah – Palestinian media

Nurit Yohanan is The Times of Israel's Palestinian and Arab world correspondent

Palestinian media reports that settlers set fire to several vehicles overnight in the village of Rammun near Ramallah in the West Bank.

Images show Hebrew graffiti reading: “Regards from Tzeela, revenge” — referring to Tzeela Gez, an Israeli woman shot to death by a Palestinian terrorist in the West Bank two weeks ago while on her way to hospital to give birth.

There are no reports of injuries in the apparent attack by the settlers, and no comment from Israel Police.

Israeli authorities rarely arrest Jewish perpetrators in such attacks. Some rights groups lament that convictions are even more unusual and that the vast majority of charges in these types of attacks are dropped.
