An Israeli intelligence agency warned the military about an impending settler attack in the West Bank, but the IDF failed to act promptly, allowing the attack to take place and resulting in one Palestinian killed and several injured. The IDF’s slow response and inadequate force have been heavily criticized, raising concerns about the military’s ability to protect Palestinian civilians.
The United States has imposed sanctions on a prominent Israeli settler group and an individual for their alleged role in inciting violence against Palestinians in the West Bank. The move comes amidst escalating tensions and concerns over extremist settler actions, which the US believes are fueled by the Israeli government.
Canada has imposed sanctions on seven Israeli settlers, including prominent figures like Ben-Zion Gopstein and Elisha Yered, for their involvement in extremist violence in the West Bank. This is the second time in a month that Canada has taken such action, reflecting growing international concern over the escalating violence in the region.
