The Occupied West Bank On Fire: Israeli Settler Violence and Annexation
Diana Buttu breaks down the escalating Israeli violence in Palestine. We've seen hundreds of Israeli settlers attacking Palestinian towns, setting homes and cars on fire. This comes on the heels of a violent invasion by the Israeli military into the Palestinian city of Jenin, which resulted in the loss of six Palestinian lives, including two children, and wounded at least 90 more. For the first time in 2 decades, Israel attacked Palestinians using a helicopter. The helicopter shot a rocket at a Palestinian refugee camp. Additionally, Israel announced plans last week to build over 4,000 illegal settlements homes on Palestinian land, signaling an unsettling intensification of the occupation. Together, these events paint a concerning picture of a far-right government escalating its daily violence against Palestinians, encouraging its citizens to participate, and stealing more Palestinian land.
