Dozens of Israeli settlers entered the village of Sira near Havat Gilad following the funeral of Binyahu Malat, who was killed Friday morning. Palestinian sources report that buildings were set on fire.
After the funeral of Binyahu Malat, who was killed earlier Friday morning in a terror attack, dozens of Israeli settlers entered the adjacent Palestinian village of Sira. Palestinian sources reported that buildings were set on fire. The incident follows the death of Malat, a security coordinator for Havat Gilad, who was killed while defending Jewish hikers from a Palestinian mob, as The Zioneer reported earlier today. His funeral took place at 16:11 Jerusalem. The report of the settler descent comes from a single source and remains unverified by additional independent channels. The Zioneer is monitoring the situation.
