West Bank Violence Erupts: Israeli Settlers Rampage and Palestinian Gunmen Kill Israelis
Israeli settlers from the West Bank settlement of Shilo rampaged through the Palestinian village of Turmus Ayya, leaving at least one Palestinian dead and 12 injured, a day after four Israelis were killed by Hamas gunmen near an Israeli settlement. The settlers torched dozens of homes, cars, and trees and shot at residents. Violence is surging across the West Bank as Israel expands settlements and Palestinian militant networks attract recruits.
