Israeli settlers raided Iskaka village overnight slashed tires of dozens of Palestinian vehicles and spray-painted racist anti-Palestinian and anti-Arab slogans on the walls of Palestinian homes and the local mosque.
Settler violence against Palestinian civilians and property in the occupied West Bank has been on the rise in recent years.
Settlers’ violence includes property and mosque arsons stone-throwing uprooting of crops and olive trees attacks on vulnerable homes among others.
Between 500000 and 600000 Israelis live in Jewish-only settlements across the occupied Palestinian territories in violation of international law.
All settlements across the West Bank are illegal under international law particularly article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention which establishes that the occupying power shall not deport or forcibly transfer civilian population in territory it occupies.
