Rights groups call for help stopping Israeli 'pogrom' against Palestinians in West Bank Israeli rights groups have called on the international community to intervene in order to prevent a "pogrom" in the occupied West Bank. Organisations including B’Tselem, Rabbis for Human Rights and the Palestinian-run Adalah said action was needed to prevent further deaths after Israeli settlers killed four Palestinians on Friday. A group of armed settlers killed the four Palestinians in the village of Tel, near Nablus, while a Palestinian seized a weapon from one of the settlers and opened fire, killing two of them.
Though an Israeli army investigation found that the settlers had entered an off-limits area, the Israeli government ordered the army to demolish the home of the Palestinian accused of killing the two settlers. The army said it had detained two Palestinians in the hospital due to their alleged 'participation in the shooting' in the village of Tel (Jaafar Ashtiyeh/AFP) B’Tselem calls for immediate action to stop Israeli violence in the West Bank B'Tselem called on the international community to take immediate action to stop Israel's violence and prevent pogroms by settler militias and the Israeli army across the West Bank, as settlers killed at least four Palestinians on Friday.
The rights group said in recent days, violence by settler militias, enabled and supported by the Israeli army, has escalated across the West Bank, including the torching and destruction of Palestinian property, and the forced expulsion of families and communities. "These attacks have been met with silence and inaction from much of the international community, allowing the violence to continue and intensify," the group said in a statement on X. "Experience shows that these events can escalate quickly into mass pogroms when met with silence.
We call the international community to act now," it added, saying that immediate pressure must be placed on Israel to stop further attacks, prevent pogroms and further killings.
