Jewish settlers attack Burin town set fire to olive fields

Sunday 16-April-2017

Violent clashes broke out on Saturday evening between local residents and extremist Jewish settlers after the latter set fire to olive fields in Burin village south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.

A local source reported that the settlers tried to enter the village after they lit its nearby fields prompting residents to use loudspeakers to call for repelling the attack and putting out the fires.

Consequently many residents clashed with the settlers in an attempt to fend them off before a large number of Israeli troops showed up attacked the villagers and escorted the assailants out of the area.
