JAKARTA - A mosque in the Israeli-occupied West Bank caught fire on Monday, July 27. Palestinian officials are hooked. They accuse the Israeli settlers of being behind the arson.

The allegation of burning the mosque is considered reasonable. This is because a sentence in Hebrew was written on the mosque wall with black paint. "The land of Israel for the people of Israel." The sentence is reminiscent of Israel's historical claim to territory that includes the West Bank.

"This is racism and apartheid," Erekat said in a statement.

Launching Reuters, a Palestinian emergency services official said the arson incident occurred before dawn. Unidentified people reportedly started burning the bathroom areas of the Al-Bir and Al-thsan mosques using flammable liquids.

The fires were contained after residents living near the mosque called the fire brigade. The prayer area saved. A number of other parts were damaged.

Not only Erekat, Israeli Cabinet Minister Amir Peretz became angry with the mosque destroyer. On Twitter, Peretz called on those responsible for the burning of the mosque to be brought to justice.

Previously, sentences in Hebrew written using black spray paint had been scattered outside the mosque area. In fact, they are often used in attacks on Palestinian property. Israeli police suspect Israeli ultranationalists are behind the chaos.

Historically, Israel captured the West Bank in the Middle East War in 1967. Therefore, 400 thousand Israeli settlers later occupied the West Bank. In that place they live side by side with about three million Palestinians.
