Hundreds of Israeli settlers attacked the Palestinian village of Sarra, southwest of Nablus, on Friday, burning homes, damaging property and assaulting residents.
The attacks forced several families in the occupied West Bank village to flee for safety, residents told Middle East Eye.
Residents said that at least two homes were set on fire, while several Palestinians suffered from smoke inhalation after the fires.
Eyewitnesses told MEE that villagers also attempted to confront the attackers and prevent further damage.
The attack on the village comes after a series of attacks carried out by settlers in the Nablus area, following the deadly attack on the town of Tell.
Mohammed Turabi, a resident of Sarra, said that he and his family were shaken by the settlers' attack on their home, where they hurled stones and Molotov cocktails.
The courtyard, vehicle and ground floor of the house were burned, but the family says it managed to escape unharmed.
