Israeli settlers burn, deface West Bank mosque
In the Middle East, Israeli settlers have burned and defaced a mosque in a Palestinian village in the West Bank. An Associated Press reporter found that walls and carpeting were scorched, as were multiple copies of the Koran, and there were hateful messages written on the building’s exterior.

The torching comes a day after Israeli leaders condemned an earlier attack by settlers on two Palestinian villages. On Thursday, a government official said the Israeli military does not condone any such acts of violence.

Palestinians and human rights groups say that Israel’s far right government does little to prevent the growing acts of settler violence in the West Bank. So far, there have been no arrests in the mosque attack.
