Simultaneously, the Israeli occupation army renewed its artillery shelling on an UNRWA school housing displaced persons in the camp, resulting in damages but not casualties.

Several Palestinians were injured by gunfire and dozens of homes were set on fire this afternoon in a large-scale attack by Israeli settler militias on the village of Duma, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.

Suleiman Dawabsha, the head of Duma Village Council, told WAFA that confrontations erupted in the town during which a number of local Palestinian citizens were shot with live bullets while trying to fend off the settlers’ attack, who set fire to several homes in the village.

Settlers attacked the homes of citizens in the village yesterday evening, coinciding with a widespread raid by the occupation forces. Another big-scale attack by settlers also took place yesterday on the nearby town of Al-Mughayyir.

Israeli settler militias, under the protection of the Israeli army, have closed the entrances to the towns of Silwad, Turmus Aya, Sinjil, and Deir Dibwan, east of Ramallah Governorate, and attacked passing vehicles.
