Assailants launched two overnight raids in the occupied West Bank, targeting Palestinian communities. The attacks resulted in significant property damage and the disruption of essential services.
In the village of Al-Mughayyir, east of Ramallah, attackers set fire to multiple vehicles. Separately, in a hamlet in the northern Jordan Valley, they deliberately severed main water lines.
These incidents are part of a pattern of violence by Israeli settlers in the territory. Israel captured the West Bank in the 1967 war, and settlements there are considered illegal under international law, though Israel disputes this.
The attacks have left residents without reliable transportation and access to water. No injuries were immediately reported.
