Settlers attacked the Abu Bakr al-Siddiq Mosque located between the towns of Tel and Surah, southwest of Nablus in the northern occupied West Bank. They attempted to burn down the mosque by pouring flammable materials on it, resulting in significant damage to the property. In addition to the arson, the attackers inscribed racist slogans that incite violence against Arabs. This incident is part of a concerning trend of violence and hostility shown by some settler groups against Palestinian communities in the region.

The act of vandalism was reported by Al Jazeera's correspondent, who indicated that several settlers arrived in the area and executed the attack during the night. These types of incidents have been increasing in frequency, exacerbating tensions in an already volatile region. The mosque represents not just a place of worship, but also a cultural and community hub for local Palestinians, making the attack particularly egregious.

International reactions to such incidents often call for accountability and an end to the violence, highlighting the need for a comprehensive resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The ongoing attacks on places of worship point to the broader issues of discrimination and conflict in the occupied territories, emphasizing the urgent need for peace and dialogue to prevent further escalation.
