RAMALLAH, September 15, 2026 (WAFA) - Israeli colonists on Tuesday evening torched Palestinian property in the Burqa village, east of Ramallah, according to local sources.
They reported that the colonists attacked the outskirts of the village and set fire to structures, causing at least one vehicle to catch fire, while the villagers attempted to confront the attack.
Colonists’ violence against Palestinians and their property is routine in the West Bank and is rarely prosecuted by Israeli authorities.
Colonists’ violence includes property and mosque arsons, stone-throwing, uprooting of crops and olive trees, and attacks on vulnerable homes, among others.
Approximately 1 million Israeli colonists are living in colonies in the West Bank and East Jerusalem in violation of international law.
