Three Palestinians were slightly injured during an overnight attack by Israeli settler extremists on the West Bank village of Surif, according to an Army Radio report. The extremists allegedly set fire to buildings and cars, attacked Palestinians with clubs and tear gas, and spray-painted threatening graffiti on buildings. IDF troops were dispatched to the area shortly after the attack to search for suspects and collect evidence. They located the burned vehicles and graffiti, but no arrests have been made. Israel Police also opened an investigation, with officers from the Judea and Samaria District collecting evidence and testimonies. The attack follows a similar incident in Huwara in June, where several Palestinians were hospitalized after being attacked by masked extremists. On Monday, the IDF deployed two extra battalions to the West Bank to curb recent escalation in extremist settler violence and Palestinian terrorist attacks.
