On June 21, 2023, two Palestinian attackers opened fire at a restaurant and gas station near an Israeli settlement, killing four Israelis and wounding several others. In response, Israeli settlers stormed Palestinian towns, setting fire to dozens of cars and homes, and the Israeli military deployed additional forces. This incident has sparked outrage among Palestinians and raised tensions between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, with both sides accusing each other of inciting violence. The international community is closely monitoring the situation and has urged both sides to exercise restraint and work towards a peaceful resolution.
