STORYLINE: Hundreds of Israeli settlers launched an attack against the Palestinians on Tuesday afternoon in the town of Turmus Ayya, northeast of Ramallah, "under the protection of the Israeli army." The settlers reportedly set fire to homes and vehicles, causing chaos and destruction. With over half a million Israeli settlers residing in the West Bank, occupied by Israel since 1967, alongside 3.2 million Palestinians, confrontations between the two sides have often escalated into violent clashes. The tense atmosphere between Israelis and the Palestinians in the West Bank has persisted since early January, leading to the loss of 175 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli gunfire in the West Bank.
