i24NEWS reports that the Palestinian Authority has engaged in severe incitement following the stabbing attack near Itamar in which farmer Itamar Cohen was seriously wounded.

i24NEWS reports that the Palestinian Authority has escalated its rhetoric following Thursday's terror attack near Itamar in Samaria, in which farmer Itamar Cohen was seriously stabbed while helping extinguish a fire. According to the report, the PA issued a statement referring to settlers as a 'snake' whose head must be cut off — a severe incitement in the wake of the attack.
As The Zioneer reported earlier, Itamar Cohen, a founder of agricultural farms in Judea and Samaria, was wounded in the attack. The IDF swiftly eliminated the two assailants and imposed a siege on the nearby village of Sirik. Defense Minister Israel Katz wished Cohen a speedy recovery and praised the security forces.
The incitement comes amid heightened tensions in the region, with the PA's inflammatory language drawing criticism from Israeli officials. The quote, attributed to PA sources, has not been independently verified by The Zioneer.
