Israeli settlers attack Muslim cemetery

The attackers sprayed racist and anti-Islam graffiti on the headstones of the tombs on Thursday. “Death to the Arabs,” was smudged on one of the defaced stones.

“Price Tag” was daubed in Hebrew on another headstone, a term marking attacks by extremist settlers on Palestinian mosques, cemeteries and farmland.

The al-Aqsa Foundation said wine glasses were found in the area and that 30 graves were damaged in the attack.

Israeli police said they had opened an inquiry into the incident.

But the foundation held Israeli authorities responsible for the attack and urged Islamic countries to intervene to end the attacks on Muslim and Christian holy sites in al-Quds.


Human rights groups blame Tel Aviv for ignoring complaints by the victims of the growing settler violence.
