Israeli MK involved in tear-down of Palestinian memorial
Reports have indicated that Israeli Member of Knesset Tzipi Soqut from the "Religious Zionism" party participated with a group of settlers in destroying a Palestinian memorial in the village of Madama near Nablus in the occupied West Bank. Soqut appeared in videos smashing the monument with a hammer, while another person filmed him, and a settler was seen participating in the attack, striking the shrine of the martyrs. This occurred amid the presence of Israeli forces and a military vehicle at the scene, which sparked criticism within Israel over the military's involvement in securing the incident, especially following the rejection of left-wing lawmakers' requests to visit Palestinian areas in the West Bank, and accusations that there had previously been a lack of necessary forces to escort the settlers.
