Israeli settlers attacked a village in the West Bank, resulting in one death and one critical injury. Israeli leaders condemned the attack, promising to punish the perpetrators. Footage on social media shows houses and cars set ablaze in the village. Prime Minister Netanyahu vowed to prosecute those responsible, while President Herzog called for immediate action to bring them to justice. The IDF deployed forces to disperse the attackers and launched an investigation.
Palestinians accuse Israeli security forces of allowing such attacks, with over 1,000 incidents reported since October, displacing many and causing fatalities. While the focus remains on the Israel-Hamas conflict, international sanctions have been imposed on settler leaders due to the escalating settler violence. This incident underscores the ongoing tensions in the region and the need for swift and decisive action to prevent further tragedies.
