Jewish settlers in West Bank more emboldened in attacking Palestinian towns

The National Office for Land Defence and Settlement Resistance says in its weekly report that Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank are exploiting the events of Israel’s aggression on the Gaza Strip to escalate the situation on the ground across the territory, Wafa news agency reported.

“Settlers have become more organised and dangerous, after the Israeli government decided to arm them and a large number of them have joined the army to fight in the Gaza Strip,” said the report by the Palestinian organisation that documents settlement activity and settler attacks. According to Israeli rights group B’tselem, Palestinian residents of 16 Bedouin and herding villages in Area C have been forced to leave their homes since October 7, due to the acts of violence and threats carried out by settlers.
