Hundreds of Israeli settlers stormed at dawn Thursday Islamic shrines in Nablus’s southern town of Ourata in the third such break-in this week.
Ourata resident Ali Louleh said Israeli army patrols escorted by sniffer dogs stormed Ourata at predawn time and raked through the town shortly before buses carrying Israeli settlers showed up.
Local Activist Najm Awad also said dozens of Israeli soldiers and fanatic rabbis accompanied the settler hordes as they stormed three Islamic shrines in Ourata and performed sacrilegious rituals for over two hours.
