Israeli settler extremists set fire to several homes in the West Bank Palestinian village of Kisan on Friday night, according to Palestinian media and the Israel Defense Forces.

The IDF said troops were dispatched to the scene upon receiving reports of the arson, and several suspects were detained and handed over to police.

No injuries were reported in the attack.

According to Palestinian media, six homes were set ablaze, and several residents fled their homes during the attack.

The reports said the attackers came from a nearby hilltop outpost that had recently been erected.

Friday night’s arson attack was the latest in a string of settler attacks on Palestinian villages and towns in the West Bank, with multiple violent incidents reported throughout the West Bank over the past week.

On Tuesday, a group of settler extremists allegedly torched several cars in the West Bank village of Beitin, near Ramallah.

Images from the site of the arson attack showed graffiti with the word “revenge” sprayed in Hebrew.
