Two masked men have been caught on CCTV setting fire to a Palestinian home in the West Bank village of Jit, after dousing the exterior with flammable liquid. Camera footage shows the men, believed to be Israeli civilians, pouring the liquid onto several items of furniture, including a sofa and a baby walker, before setting the property alight.

The incident is thought to be part of a larger riot which took place in the early hours of Friday morning, following a raid by Israeli men claiming to be looking for a missing boy, in which at least one Palestinian was killed and several others injured, and numerous cars and buildings were torched.
