Israeli settlers punctured the tires of 25 Palestinian cars and spray-painted "Price Tag" on a nearby wall in the town of Salfit in the West Bank, the Yesh Din organization reported.
A Palestinian woman whose car was vandalized told Haaretz that the settlers arrived from the Nof Avi farm, outside the northern entrance to Salfit. "There was a truck loaded with gas canisters among the vehicles, it is lucky they didn't cause an explosion," she said. "The situation is terrifying and unbearable. What is most concerning is that everyone knows what is happening but no one will do anything about it."
The 'price tag' attack follows in the wake of Sunday's shooting attack in the West Bank town of Hawara in which an Israeli American man in his 30s was seriously wounded after his car was shot at. Another passenger who was with him, identified as a family member, was not hurt but was treated for shock.
The Israel Defense Forces are treating the incident as a terrorist attack and apprehended the assailant shortly afterward. IDF sources believe that the shooter arrived on foot with a makeshift gun, fired on the Israeli vehicle and then fled the scene.
In a separate incident revealed on Monday, IDF soldiers were filmed vandalizing a truck belonging to a Palestinian. Last Wednesday, soldiers from the 931 Nahal battalion arrived in the village of Na'alin. According to the footage and testimony by other soldiers, a group of soldiers smashed the truck windows, slashed the tires and tore up the truck's seats and dashboard.
