Synagogue in settler village the cause of riots
Jewish settlers in a West Bank village have threatened riots if an illegally built synagogue at Ma’ale Shomron settlement is sealed.
They have warned they will stage protests, burn tyres and set Palestinian farmland ablaze if authorities seal a synagogue which was illegally built in the settlement of Ma’ale Shomron.
Settlers, warning of harsh retaliation, said they had been enraged that there had been talk of the synagogue being closed while an illegally built mosque in Burin, an adjacent Palestinian village, had been ignored.
