Ramallah, November 12 (RHC)-- Israeli settlers have set a Palestinian mosque on fire amid worsening unrest in Israel and the occupied West Bank. The torching of the mosque near the West Bank city of Ramallah follows separate Palestinian knife attacks that killed an Israeli settler and an Israeli soldier.

On Tuesday, Israeli forces shot dead a Palestinian man in the West Bank after a crowd of protesters threw stones and fuel bombs. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyhahu is vowing to crush renewed Palestinian protests, while Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has accused Netanyahu of seeking to ignite a "religious war."

The latest round of tensions escalated following new Israeli settlement expansion in occupied East Jerusalem and an attempt by extremist Israelis to enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
