Illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers carried out an arson attack at dawn Friday, partially burning three Palestinian vehicles and spray-painting racist slogans in Rantis village, west of Ramallah in the central occupied West Bank.
Local sources said a group of colonizers infiltrated the village around 3 a.m. and set fire to three vehicles parked near homes. Residents confronted the assailants, forcing them to withdraw.
Residents added that the colonizers also spray-painted racist slogans on the walls of several Palestinian homes before heading toward nearby colonial outposts.
Friday’s attack was one of several recent incidents in the Ramallah area, reflecting a broader escalation in colonizer violence across the occupied West Bank.
