The term price tag attack refers to acts of vandalism and violence by Israeli extremist settlers against Palestinians and their property, as well as against Israeli security forces. These attacks are intended as a form of retribution or deterrence against actions perceived to be anti-settler, such as the dismantling of illegal outposts or Palestinian attacks on settlers.
