Israeli settlers storm Palestinian community in occupied West Bank
Israeli settlers have stormed the Palestinian community of Shalla al-Auja, north of Jericho in the occupied West Bank, the Wafa news agency is reporting.
A group of settlers entered the Bedouin community and released their sheep into their homes, vandalising their property.
Hassan Malihat, of the Al-Baidar Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights, said the latest incident was part of a pattern of attacks by Israeli settlers from illegal outposts surrounding Shalla al-Auja, aimed at driving the community from their homes.
Majority of Israelis ‘very frustrated’ yet passive in face of war in Gaza
Israeli columnist Gideon Levy says many Israelis feel “frustrated, angry and helpless” about the lack of clarity around Israel’s war in Gaza and what it hopes to achieve.
“A big part of Israelis, I guess it is the majority, is very, very frustrated, angry and helpless, because people are going to the army and people [are] going to this war without knowing where it is aiming, what is the goal, and above all, what is the legitimacy of this war?” he told Al Jazeera.
Despite this discontent, Levy noted that most Israelis are unwilling to take any meaningful action.
“This war can continue because this majority… is not refusing to serve in the army, it is not taking any measures. They go to protests, to demonstrations in the evenings, which doesn’t affect Netanyahu at all.”
