Israeli settlers stage new attack on home in West Bank

Israeli settlers launched an attack on a Palestinian home in the occupied West Bank village of Qusra, trapping seven Palestinians inside while throwing stones. Witnesses reported that Israeli military personnel used tear gas, detained the residents, and allegedly beat them before releasing them. The Israeli military described the attackers as 'rioters' and claimed to have acted to protect the residents. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the violence but blamed a 'handful of rioters'. Rights groups dispute the government's characterization of settler actions, and a UN inquiry found Israeli authorities involved in attacks against Palestinians. The incident follows previous settler sieges in the area that drew international criticism.
