Israeli settlers attacked villages in the occupied West Bank, wounding several Palestinians and setting fire to houses and cars, under full protection from the Israeli army.

The rampage came after hundreds of settlers, many of them armed, stormed the village of al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah on Friday. 

Barakat Dawabsha, a resident of Duma, south of Nablus, told Middle East Eye that more than 500 armed settlers attacked the village from the northern, western and southern sides.
