Israeli military and Border Police forces entered the villages of Mazari al-Nubani and Jaljulia in the Binyamin Brigade sector following a report of mosques being set on fire and graffiti sprayed. Troops located two burned mosques and anti-Semitic graffiti on walls. The suspects fled before forces arrived, according to N12.
The IDF and Border Police confirmed Wednesday afternoon that troops located two burned mosques and anti-Semitic graffiti in the West Bank villages of Mazari al-Nubani and Jaljulia, after entering the area following a report of arson and vandalism. Security forces arrived to find the mosques ablaze and graffiti on walls, but the suspects had already fled. No arrests have been reported and the incident is under investigation.
The Zioneer has been tracking this story since overnight. At 02:22 Jerusalem on Wednesday, the desk reported an unverified Palestinian source claim that Jewish individuals set fire to a mosque in Jaljuliya, north of Ramallah. A follow-up item, also at 02:22 Jerusalem, identified the incident as a 'price tag' attack. A third item, again timestamped 02:22 Jerusalem, added that 'revenge' graffiti was sprayed at the scene. By Wednesday afternoon, the IDF and Border Police had entered the villages and provided official confirmation of two burned mosques and graffiti — corroborating and expanding the initial reports.
While unrelated context items are cited here, they have no bearing on this specific incident. The Zioneer has no prior reporting on this specific event outside the overnight thread.
Official identification of the suspects remains pending, and the number of attackers or any affiliation with hilltop youth has not been confirmed by Israeli authorities.
