Clashes erupted with Palestinian residents, forcing the occupiers to retreat. Israeli military vehicles moved into the area afterward, according to the sources.
Footage of the fire circulated in local media, which reported that the flames were spreading toward nearby homes. Residents called for urgent assistance as firefighters struggled to contain the blaze.
The attack comes amid a sharp escalation in Israeli army raids and occupier violence across the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, since October 2023. Reports describe killings, arrests, home demolitions, arson attacks, land bulldozing and the displacement of Palestinian communities.
