Tensions have escalated in the occupied West Bank following an incident where a mosque and several residential buildings were set on fire by a group of Israeli settlers. The attack occurred in the early hours of July 19, 2026, in the Palestinian village of Al-Tuwani. Palestinian officials reported the incident, which was confirmed by a journalist from the Agence France-Presse, who observed the burnt entrance of the mosque, along with graffiti found on its walls.

The growing frequency of such attacks on Palestinian communities has been noted, particularly since the onset of the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
