In Israel, authorities are investigating a fire at the human rights group B’Tselem for signs of arson. The NGO, which documents human rights abuses in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories, has been targeted in a recent Israeli government crackdown over funding sources abroad. In a statement, B’Tselem said “if it is discovered that this was an arson attack, it must be seen in the context of the wave of government incitement and smear campaigns against Israel’s human rights groups, and B’Tselem in particular.” Meanwhile, Israeli police have killed an Arab citizen of Israel who was accused of fatally shooting three people in Tel Aviv earlier this month.
