For the second consecutive night, Israeli settlers rampaged through Palestinian towns and villages in the occupied West Bank, injuring at least nine Palestinians.

The attacks coincided with the Eid al-Fitr holiday and followed the death of an Israeli settler in a collision with a Palestinian vehicle. Israeli police are investigating the circumstances of the collision. The violence occurs as the Israeli government continues expanding settlements in the West Bank, despite international law.
