"Disgraceful": Rashid Khalidi Slams Israeli Attacks on Journalists, Detention of Rep. Ro Khanna

Israeli settlers have recently targeted Palestinian communities, foreign journalists, and even a U.S. congressman in the occupied West Bank. Congressman Ro Khanna was detained by Israeli settlers while visiting a village that had been destroyed by them, during which he witnessed the use of U.S.-made weapons. Separately, a group of journalists, including CNN's Jeremy Diamond, were attacked by settlers using clubs, rocks, and knives. These incidents occurred at a site linked to the previous murder of Palestinian-American Saif Musallet, whose killers remain unpunished. According to B'Tselem, over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank since October 2023, including more than 200 minors. Meanwhile, the U.S. and Israel have agreed to establish a permanent U.S. Embassy in West Jerusalem.

Rep. Ro Khanna says he was detained by Israeli settlers during West Bank visit

Rep. Ro Khanna claimed he was detained by Israeli settlers during a visit to the West Bank. The incident occurred amid heightened tensions in the region and has drawn attention to the complex dynamics between Israeli settlers and Palestinian authorities. Khanna's account highlights concerns about the safety of international visitors in the area and raises questions about the treatment of foreign diplomats and officials in occupied territories. His statement comes at a time of ongoing geopolitical discussions involving Israel and Palestine.
