Yossi Dagan, head of the Samaria Regional Council, expressed profound dismay at the swastikas in Huwara.

For the second time in the past week-and-a-half, signs of Nazism and endorsements of terror were discovered in the Palestinian village of Huwara, situated in the northern region of Samaria. Photos provided by the Samaria Regional Council depict a large mural on the village's main road. This mural is adorned with Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) flags and Nazi swastikas.

Yossi Dagan, head of the Samaria Regional Council, expressed profound dismay at the swastikas in Huwara. He fervently called upon security forces to dismantle the wall without delay. In his statement on Tuesday, Dagan declared, "This reveals the true intentions of the Hamas perpetrators and their backers, as well as the Fatah assailants from the Palestinian Authority. They are akin to aggressive Nazis. I urge the government and security forces to act as they would against Nazis: Remove the mural in Huwara at once."

'We demand safety'

He further added, "The leniency shown towards this Nazi-influenced terror is deeply concerning. We cannot be silently led to our ruin. We demand safety, national pride, and prompt action against the culprits. Such incidents must never happen again."

About ten days ago, the IDF demolished a pizzeria in Huwara. This decision followed the pizzeria's online advertisement, which depicted an elderly Israeli woman kidnapped by terrorists in Gaza. Settlers, outraged by the ad, gathered near the pizzeria, demanding its removal. The IDF responded by shutting the establishment and, using a bulldozer, took down the storefront. The army plans to seal the establishment permanently.
