Netanyahu accuses defamation over settler attack
According to a report from the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, settlers in the West Bank are being systematically accused of a smear campaign following a violent attack carried out by extremists against a European diplomatic convoy during an on-site tour. The assault targeted vehicles belonging to French, Belgian, and Polish diplomatic missions in the town of Al-Tuba, where settlers violently assaulted the delegation, including the French mayor of Eméry, who was kicked and knocked down, resulting in bruises and injuries. The incident occurred amid rising tensions during the olive harvesting season. The Israeli government described the attacks as part of a campaign to discredit the occupation, while the police have launched an official investigation into the matter amid concerns over increasing settler violence against Palestinians and foreign collaborators.
