Israeli settlers continue attacks on Palestinian families in Qusra
Two Palestinian families have been trapped in their homes in the West Bank village of Qusra since Sunday due to ongoing attacks by a group of 10 to 15 Israeli settlers. Despite a brief intervention by Israeli soldiers on Wednesday morning, the settlers resumed their assault with stones and axes after the military withdrew. The Israeli army has reportedly assigned an additional battalion to the area to address the situation.
