Israeli settlers attack West Bank Palestinian community, burn homes

Israeli settlers attack West Bank Palestinian community, burn homes Israeli settlers attacked a small Palestinian community in the occupied West Bank, injuring people, destroying homes and smashing their power source, the military and residents said Thursday, in the latest in a spate of violent confrontations. AFP journalists in remote Khirbet al-Tuba saw buildings blackened by fire and smoke, the interiors of three homes completely burned and graffiti in Hebrew spray-painted on remaining structures. The dozen solar panels the isolated southern community relies on for power had also been smashed to render them unusable.
