Israeli Ministers Criticise Settler Attacks in West Bank
- A delegation of about 20 European ambassadors, including those from Canada and the UK, visited Kafr Malik on Monday to assess damage from a deadly settler attack last Wednesday that killed three Palestinians and injured seven.
- The attack took place during a marked increase in settler violence in the West Bank, which has escalated since the nationalist Israeli administration assumed office in 2022 and has pursued a pastoral settlement strategy aimed at appropriating Palestinian land.
- A large group of Israeli settlers carrying weapons entered Kafr Malik, where they set Palestinian vehicles ablaze and engaged in clashes with local residents, prompting intervention by the Israeli military.
- EU representative Alexander Stutzmann condemned the escalating violence by settlers, describing it as intolerable, and emphasized that killings and vandalism of homes are unacceptable, calling for those responsible to be held accountable.
- The visit expressed the EU's solidarity with Palestinians, reaffirmed that Israeli settlements violate international law and obstruct peace, and stressed that violence must stop with those responsible held accountable.
