EU, UK call on Israel to stop settler attacks on Palestinians in West Bank

LONDON: Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank must cease attacks on local Palestinians, Western politicians have said. The UK and EU both condemned the rise in settler violence since the outbreak of hostilities between Israel and Iran on Feb. 28. Six Palestinians have been killed by settlers in the 12 days since the start of the war, according to the UN. Israeli human rights group Yesh Din said it had recorded 109 separate incidents of violence committed by settlers at 62 sites in the West Bank during the war’s opening 10 days.
