Suspected Jewish vandals torched a mosque overnight in Bazariya, Samaria, and sprayed graffiti threatening U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee and Kan military correspondent Roy Sharon. The messages included ‘Evictions = chaos. Be warned,’ ‘Roy Sharon, look out for your car,’ and ‘Regards from the terrorists,’ addressed to Huckabee. Kan condemned the threat against Sharon, said intimidation would not deter its reporting and urged authorities to locate and prosecute those responsible. Separately, police announced eight arrests over other arson and assault incidents in the South Hebron Hills; the verified report did not link those arrests to the Bazariya attack.
