The home was partially burnt, while a mother and her child suffocated due to extensive smoke inhalation, and received the needed medical treatment, the Palestinian TV said.
The assailants also burnt several Palestinian trees, belonging to the villagers of Burin.
They also caused damage to at least 15 Palestinian cars, in the Nablus district.

In addition, a number of Israeli extremists tried to attack a home, belonging to resident Marwan Najjar, near the main entrance of Burin, where he lives with four other family members, and caused damage to Palestinian ambulances that rushed to the village.
Medical sources in Nablus told the Maan News Agency that a Palestinian, identified as Jibreel Qadous, and three members of his family, were moved to hospital in Nablus, due to severe effects of tear gas inhalation, in Burin.
One Palestinian was also hurt after Israeli settlers hurled stones on his car, and was moved to a local hospital.
