The U.S. condemned the siege of Palestinian homes by Israeli settlers in the West Bank, where they cut off water, electricity and essential supplies to residents. U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee called the settlers’ actions an “act of terror,” adding to American pressure that has prompted Israeli forces to intervene. Nick Schifrin reports.

"The actions of those doing this to this family’s home are criminal," Huckabee continued. "The WH hasn’t 'intervened' because we have kept DC apprised of the situation already."
