Suspected ‘price tag’ arson in West Bank

A fire investigator rules that a Palestinian olive grove that burned down near Bat Ayin in the West Bank was deliberately set on fire, Ynet reports.

Bat Ayin is a settlement where many radical right-wing settlers reside. Recently a member of the community, who is serving in the IDF, was arrested on allegations that he leaked to his colleagues in the settlements sensitive intelligence information regarding investigations against them.
