Mr Abbas’s allegation was made during a speech at a conference in Ramallah on Friday night, according to the Jerusalem Post.
“Every night they release wild pigs against us”, the president was quoted as saying, before adding “Why are they doing this?”.
The latest comments come after a Palestinian house was set on fire in Ramallah, the location of Mr Abbas’s speech, at around 4am on Sunday by Israeli settlers throwing Molotov cocktails. Anti-Palestinian graffiti was also daubed on the walls.
The accusation of using wild pigs as a weapon is not new. In the past, the Palestinian authority has claimed that the IDF and Israeli settlers have released the animals to intimidate farmers and damage crops.

The Israelis do actually have ‘guard pigs’ to patrol the prison yards of the jails that they keep terrorist suspects inside. They have employed this method for some time.
