Colonists Burn Mosque West of Jericho in West Bank

Jericho: Colonists set fire to a mosque in the Arab al-Malihat community, west of the city of Jericho in the West Bank.

According to Qatar News Agency, the general supervisor of the local Al-Baydar Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights, Hassan Mleihat, informed the Palestinian news agency (Wafa) that a group of colonists poured a flammable substance and set fire to a mosque in the Arab Malihat community. The attack resulted in the complete destruction of the building, and a nearby agricultural tractor was also set on fire.

This attack occurs in the context of expanding colonial outposts at the end of Al-Ma'rajat Road, northwest of the city of Jericho. This incident is part of a series of attacks aimed at displacing Palestinians and seizing their homes and properties.
