Nablus, 23 Shawwal 1436/ 8 August 2015 (MINA) – Extremist Israeli settlers attacked a Palestinian home with fire bombs and rocks in the village of Duma south of Nablus in the northern West Bank on Saturday morning, Palestinian officials told Ma’an.

Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors settler activities in the northern West Bank, told Ma’an that “a number of extremist settlers hurled two fire bombs at the home of Mahmoud Fazza al-Kaabna.”

The fire bombs, Daghlas said, landed on the outer wall of the home near a window, but did not make it inside the house, Maan News Agency  quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.

The attackers also hurled stones at the house, with one of them hitting al-Kaabna in the abdomen.
