EU and UK denounce settler violence in West Bank The European Union and United Kingdom have issued statements calling for an end to Israeli settler violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank this week. “We are appalled by the killing of five Palestinians in incidents of settler violence over the past week,” the British Consulate General in Jerusalem said in a statement posted on X. It added that “Israeli security forces have described such violence as ‘unacceptable’” and called on them to follow with “swift, thorough investigations and accountability for those responsible”.
