Huwara, a village on the edge: Settler violence in the West Bank escalates • FRANCE 24 English

Published 2023-06-06
In February, dozens of young Israeli settlers in the #WestBank led a punitive expedition to the Palestinian town of #Huwara in the north, near Nablus, following the murder of two of their own. They burned several buildings in the town and threw stones, injuring several residents and killing one, according to Palestinian authorities. One Israeli general described the violence as a "pogrom". FRANCE 24's Gwendoline Debono returned to Huwara to find out why the northern West Bank is now one of the most violent areas in the #PalestinianTerritories.
