NABLUS, April 25, 2018 (WAFA) – In an incident that is being repeated almost daily this week, Jewish Israeli settlers Wednesday slashed tires of four Palestinian-owned vehicles and spray-painted anti-Arab slogans in the village of Jaloud, south of the northern West Bank city of Nablus.
Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors settlement activities in the north of the West Bank, told WAFA that settlers vandalized the cars and wrote hate slogans on walls of homes in the eastern part of the village, an area where two illegal Jewish outposts were built.
He added that Jaloud is surrounded by illegal Israeli settlements and is a target of many settlers’ attacks, noting that the attacks have escalated after the Israeli government announced its intention to build a new settlement on the village lands.
Settlers this week vandalized cars in Beit Iksa and Burqa, near Ramallah, and painted hate slogans on cars and walls. They also vandalized cars in Nazareth, an Arab city inside Israel. No one was arrested in any of these incidents.
