NABLUS, August 23, 2026 (WAFA) — Israeli colonists set fire to a residential room and partially burned a Palestinian-owned vehicle and scrawled racist slogans in the village of Usarin, south of Nablus, late last night.

Local sources reported that the colonists burned a residential room belonging to a local Palestinian citizen in the northern part of Usarin. They also partially set fire to a vehicle and sprayed racist slogans at the site.

The latest attack comes amid a broader escalation of colonist violence across the occupied West Bank. The Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission reported that colonists carried out 798 attacks in July alone, with Nablus among the governorates recording the highest number of incidents.
