IDF: Dozens of masked settlers carried out arson attack on Palestinian village near Nablus

Dozens of masked settlers entered the West Bank village of Beirut Furik, near Nablus, earlier this morning and set fire to several buildings and a car, according to the military.



A short while later, dozens of masked Israelis entered Beit Furik, where a “violent confrontation developed between them and the Palestinians who were there, which included mutual throwing of stones,” the IDF says.




The IDF says troops and Border Police officers were dispatched to the scene and they used riot dispersal means to disperse the sides.

The military says it is unaware of any injuries in the violence. No arrests have been made.

Here’s what it really says:
Dozens of masked settlers entered the West Bank village of Beit Furik, near Nablus, earlier this morning and set fire to several buildings and a car, according to the military.

The IDF says that before the violence, it received reports that Palestinians had stolen a herd of sheep and attacked an Israeli man.

A short while later, dozens of masked Israelis entered Beit Furik, where a “violent confrontation developed between them and the Palestinians who were there, which included mutual throwing of stones,” the IDF says.

The IDF says troops and Border Police officers were dispatched to the scene and they used riot dispersal means to disperse the sides. The military says it is unaware of any injuries in the violence. No arrests have been made.

“The IDF condemns events of this type and will continue to act with determination to maintain security and order in the region,” the military adds.


C’mon, you’ve read it. You know what’s in it. Does it sound to you like anything remotely resembling what you posted?

That was a cheap move.
