Radical Israeli settlers have vandalised and set fire to a mosque in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian news agency WAFA reported on Thursday.
It said the settlers had sprayed racist slogans on the walls of the mosque, located in a village in the north-west of the territory, early in the morning.
Other media outlets said that the graffiti included insults against the prophet Mohammed in Hebrew.
The Israeli military said it was investigating the allegations.
There were no initial reports of injuries, but footage circulating in Palestinian and Israeli media showed damage to the place of worship.
Violence by radical settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank has increased since the start of the Gaza war in October 2023, which was triggered by the Hamas-led attacks on Israel.
Since then, there has also been an overall increase in deadly attacks involving Palestinians and the Israeli army in the West Bank.
The Israeli military is frequently accused of not taking firm enough action against settler violence.
