Israeli Settlers Set Fire to Mosque in West Bank, Reports Say

Two news reports agree that Israeli settlers set fire to Al-Rahma Mosque in Qusra, a town in the occupied West Bank near Nablus. The arson occurred as Israeli forces arrested dozens of Palestinians during a campaign that followed an earlier incident in the village of Tal, where four Palestinians were killed while confronting a settler and an Israeli military raid. Two Israeli soldiers were also shot dead in that incident.

Middle East Eye reports that Al Jazeera verified videos showing the fire consuming the mosque. It also cites the Palestinian Information Centre, which said local sources confirmed the mosque was set ablaze by settlers. Middle East Eye includes a post from the Palestinian Information Centre on social media calling the arson a "new crime" and showing damage to the mosque.

Al Jazeera's report, from its live blog, states the same facts more briefly: settlers set fire to the mosque and Israeli forces arrested dozens of Palestinians. It does not include the video verification or the Twitter post. Both outlets frame the event as an attack by settlers, but Middle East Eye provides more context about the preceding violence in Tal, while Al Jazeera focuses on the immediate incident.
