Israeli Politicians Condemn Far-Right Settlers After IDF Facility Torched in West Bank
By The Media Line Staff
On Sunday night, far-right Jewish settlers set fire to a military security facility in the central West Bank, in one of the most serious recent acts of settler violence against Israeli forces. The arson targeted a multi-million-shekel installation near Ramallah used by the Israeli military to monitor threats and prevent attacks. According to the military, the damage “poses a danger to the security of the residents.”
The attack came hours after dozens of settlers rioted outside the nearby Binyamin Regional Brigade base, vandalizing military vehicles and assaulting soldiers with pepper spray. The military released photos showing graffiti sprayed across the burned facility. Officials are still assessing whether the site’s operational capacity was compromised.
