Israeli settlers attack and desecrate mosque in occupied West Bank

Israeli settlers attacked and vandalised a mosque in the occupied West Bank, in the latest string of escalating attacks on Palestinians in the occupied territories. 

Palestinian news agency Wafa reported that settlers on Friday vandalised the contents of a mosque in Khirbet Tana, a hamlet located near the town of Beit Furik, east of Nablus.

Thaer Hanani, a member of the Defence of Tana Lands, said that settlers stormed the Bayt al-Sheikh Mosque and vandalised the inside.
