I can’t remember seeing any muslim, let alone palastinian publicly apologizing for this desecration of Jewish scripture similar to that we are currently hearing being repeated by every western leader regarding any minor disrespect of islam.
Also, it should be clear, although the article below doesn’t make it so, the reason they have been arrested is that the books they were burning were not theirs to burn, books of psalms are often kept in cemeteries.

Three Arab youths were caught Saturday night desecrating Jewish holy books at a sacred Jewish cemetery in Jerusalem. The vandals were in the process of trying to burn several Tehillim – volumes of the Book of Psalms authored by the Biblical King David – at the ancient Mount of Olives Cemetery.
The three perpetrators, Arab teens about 16 years old, are residents of the Arab neighborood adjacent to the cemetery. All were arrested; two confessed to the crime, and the third was also found to have been involved although he continued to deny it. Police told reporters they plan to expedite prosecution of the case.
