The Israeli authorities are looking into allegations of another "price tag" attack in the West Bank.

According to Mickey Rosenfeld, spokesman for the Israeli police, the phrase was daubed on the side of a house in the village of Beit Ummar. It is thought that three cars there were damaged during the night.

This week the police said that the number of people arrested in connection with another price tag attack, on a mosque in northern Israel, has risen to eight.
