BBC films dozens of settlers attacking Palestinian community in West Bank | BBC News

BBC News witnessed an attack by dozens of Israeli settlers on Palestinians living in the occupied West Bank. In the illegal outpost of Or Nahman, settlers attacked local Palestinian farmers, setting fire to vehicles and destroying property. The violence comes as the Israeli government plans to sign off the building of thousands of new homes elsewhere in the territory, a plan deemed illegal under international law and said to "bury the idea of a Palestinian state" by a far‑right minister. Israeli settlers have been expanding their illegal seizures of Palestinian land since the start of the Gaza war, while Israel claims it does not support the creation of unauthorized new settlements. Many Palestinians accuse the Israeli government of complicity in the attacks and land seizures. A BBC team was in the West Bank near Or Nahman when Palestinian communities came under attack.
