Two mosques have been set on fire in the Israeli-occupied West Bank in an apparent Israeli settler attack following a spate of deadly violence that killed four Palestinians and two Israeli soldiers. Palestinians and the Israeli opposition accuse Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government of ignoring rising settler attacks. Israeli forces have increased their presence, closing roads and arresting over 70 Palestinians. The military on Sunday condemned the mosque arson overnight and said it was investigating. Netanyahu said troops are seizing weapons and making arrests. Pope Leo XIV called for peace, urging both sides to find a negotiated solution.
