Violence in Israeli-Occupied West Bank

Violence erupted in the Israeli-occupied West Bank as Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian villages following the killing of a missing Israeli teen in a 'terrorist attack.' Dozens were injured and multiple homes and cars were set on fire. Tensions have been high since the Israel-Hamas war in nearby Gaza began in October.
