Israeli occupiers set fire to 2 mosques in occupied West Bank
Israeli occupiers storm villages of Jiljilya and Mazra’a al-Nubani amid surging violence against Palestinians
RAMALLAH, Palestine (MNTV) – Israeli occupiers set fire on Wednesday to parts of two mosques in the villages of Jiljilya and Mazra’a al-Nubani, north of the central occupied West Bank city of Ramallah, and sprayed Hebrew slogans on their walls.
A group of occupiers stormed Jiljilya at dawn and set fire to its mosque, burning the women’s prayer hall and causing damage to the mosque’s exterior walls, local sources said.
Jiljilya has recently witnessed an escalation in occupier attacks, they said.
Last month, occupiers attacked the village and stole a flock of sheep.
In a separate incident, the occupiers attacked Mazra’a al-Nubani and set fire to a mosque there, causing material damage. They sprayed Hebrew slogans on the walls of the both mosques.
The occupied West Bank has seen escalating attacks by the Israeli army and occupiers against Palestinians and their property, including arson, land confiscation and preventing farmers from accessing their land, particularly in areas near settlements and outposts.
Since Oct. 8, 2023, Israel has killed 1,169 Palestinians in the West Bank and injured 12,666 others, while around 23,000 have been arrested and 33,000 displaced, according to official Palestinian figures.
