Palestine demands international protection after West Bank settler attacks
Palestine’s Foreign Ministry has condemned settler attacks across multiple cities in the occupied West Bank and called for urgent international intervention.

Settler militias attacked citizens in Nablus, Ramallah, Bethlehem, and Hebron on Friday, burning and destroying homes, demolishing property, and storming residential areas.

In a post on X, the ministry described the violence as “systematic terrorism” and part of a “dangerous and ongoing escalation” aimed at facilitating ethnic cleansing.

Settler attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank have surged this year, with the week beginning November 11 registering 29 attacks.

Israeli authorities rarely take measures to stop the violence or hold perpetrators to account.
