Police in the Judea and Samaria region have launched an investigation following reports of arson attacks and vandalism targeting vehicles and property in the Palestinian villages of Ras Karkar and Deir Abu Mashal overnight. Forces from the police and the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have arrived at the scenes to collect evidence and gather witness testimonies as part of the ongoing inquiry.
The incident in Deir Abu Mashal, a village northwest of Ramallah, occurred on the night of September 28. Several cars were set ablaze, and Hebrew graffiti was spray-painted on walls. One inscription read, "God of vengeance, Lord, God of vengeance, appear," accompanied by a Star of David symbol. The local council of Deir Abu Mashal has attributed the attack to Israeli settlers.
Similar incidents also took place in Ras Karkar, where vehicles were reportedly vandalized and set on fire.
