In the early hours of July 28, 2025, a group of Israeli settlers entered the predominantly Christian Palestinian village of Taybeh in the central West Bank and carried out a violent attack. According to eyewitnesses and local reports, the settlers set fire to two civilian vehicles and spray‑painted Hebrew graffiti on the walls of homes in the town. The slogans included threats directed at local residents.
Patriarchs and heads of local churches condemned the incident as part of an ongoing wave of violence against the Christian community in Taybeh. They urged Israeli authorities to hold the perpetrators accountable and to provide protection for civilians, noting that no effective police intervention or prosecutions have followed similar attacks in the past.
