Under the protection of the army.. Settlers burn the livelihoods of Palestinians in Nablus.

An industrial site and a Bedouin gathering west of Nablus city in the northern occupied West Bank turned into a scene of fire and destruction after dozens of Israeli settlers attacked the area located between the towns of Beit Lid and Deir Sharaf, burning vehicles and warehouses and assaulting Palestinian workers.

Eyewitnesses and local officials described the attack carried out by extremist settlers on Tuesday evening as the "most violent" in months, confirming that the assault occurred in an organized manner under the protection of Israeli army forces, who did not intervene to stop it.

The West Bank has been witnessing an unprecedented escalation for months by settlers who carry out repeated assaults against Palestinians and their properties under the protection of the Israeli army.
