TEL AVIV (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 09th December, 2019) A string of vandal attacks in the Arab-majority Shuafat district in Jerusalem left 160 vehicles damaged overnight, Israeli national police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said Monday.

"In #Jerusalem, Shuafat neighborhood damage caused to 160 vehicles. Police searching for suspects that fled scene & investigating background," Superintendent Rosenfeld tweeted.

A statement by the Israeli police said that vandals had smeared walls with nationalist slogans. Local media said police suspected it was an anti-Arab hate crime.

Far-right Israelis have been known to target Arab and Palestinian property in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem. They refer to the attacks as a "price" for alleged crimes against Jews.
