Several Israeli masks attacked Palestinian villages in the Occupied West Bank on Tuesday and attacked four Palestinians and attacked Israeli soldiers in the latest incident in the uprising in Setser.
Residents attacked the Palestinian villages of Beit Lid and Deir Sharaf, setting up cars and damaging property belonging to the cars left in the cars left the next day.
The Al-Hunyoiri Dairy factory, a large employer in the area, was also damaged in the attacks, and four of its trucks containing products.
Israeli violence has been mounting since the start of the war in Gaza two years ago, with at least 1,001 Palestinians killed by West Bank and East Celectriers and Israeli soldiers. According to the UN, 260 attacks took place in October, the deadliest month for settler violence since it began to be tracked in 2006.
Human rights groups and the UN have warned that settler violence is taking place in a “permissive environment” and with the support of key Israeli ministers. the UN Office Office The Settlers said they wanted to “facilitate the displacement of Palestinians from their land, raising concerns of forced displacement”.
In a rare statement, Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog, condemned the attacks on Wednesday, calling the incident “shocking and terrible”. He called on the authorities to “act decisively to eradicate the phenomenon and strengthen the IDF [Israel Defense Forces] The fighters and security forces who protect us day and night. “
His remarks were echoed by Israel’s top military official in the West Bank, Maj Gen Avi Bluth, who called the violence “unacceptable”.
Statements are rare for Israeli officials, who have largely ignored Palestinian settlements in the past two years even though they are increasingly widespread. Israeli military and government officials have rarely addressed the growing settler movement against Palestinians, despite Israeli opposition and international law.
Bluth said it was only “by Sheer Slowe” that violent incidents had not “resulted in deaths”, even though resident violence had accounted for more than 1,000 deaths in Palestine in the past two years.
Asked for clarification, the Israeli military said it was “investigating” the comments.
Violence in Israel has moved the head of the Israeli political scene, especially in the last two years. Israel’s JoimSet regularly hosts Settlers to weigh in on Pethymaking. Israeli police and armed forces are regularly targeted by those who commit acts of violence against Palestinians, only intervening when Palestinians fight back.
The Israeli soldiers said that the soldiers attacked the Settler on Tuesday, causing the residents to flee to a nearby industrial zone, where they attacked the soldiers and destroyed a military vehicle.
The police also said that they arrested four residents involved in the attacks, a great one, as the residents were largely unpunished in what human rights bodies called a system of no use.
In July, Yinon Levi, a resident who was previously under US sanctions, was caught shooting on video the death of Palestinian activist Awdah Hathaleen. He was widely arrested and later released by the Israeli authorities.
Human rights groups have accused the Israeli government of standing by residents who have carried out widespread attacks against Palestinians in the West Bank. They pointed to the far-reaching reforms of the current Israeli government, including the Ministry of Finance, Bezalel Smotrich, and National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, both of whom are prominent leaders of the Leader Settler Settler Movement.
Even as attacks against Palestinians increased, Ben-Gvir helped improve gun regulations and established “civilian guard units”, which activists warned of growing violence.
The increase in settler attacks led to international outcry abroad. Last month, a video of an Israeli resident punching a woman in the head – causing her to fall unconscious – prompted a wave of condemnations.
In October the UN Human Rights Office RESPONDENT Israeli authorities to investigate violence against Palestinians in the West Bank “in extremely rare cases”.
“In these few cases, there has been no progress, continuing the almost complete degradation for the use of unopposed force and the unopposed killing of Palestinians in the West Bank, including the East Bank, including the East Bank, including the East Bank, including the East Bank, including UNCH Jerusalem,” the UN said in a statement.
In Beit Tid, one of the two villages attacked on Tuesday, the government’s statements did not give rise to fears of violence in Setseler.
“But at any moment something happens… it can’t be. We can’t continue to live our whole lives in a state of fear and danger,” said Mahmoud Edeis, a resident of the village.
