By SCM Staff Writer I Monday, Nov.17, 2025
JERUSALEM – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has promised a harsh crackdown on Jewish settlers involved in violence and rioting in the West Bank.
In a direct and strongly worded statement, Netanyahu declared that settler violence would be handled with the ‘utmost SEVERITY,’ vowing to ‘apply the full weight of the law’ to those responsible for the unrest.
The Prime Minister’s firm promise follows an increase in attacks by some Israeli settlers on Palestinian communities in the disputed territory, particularly in the wake of recent regional conflicts.
These incidents, often involving property damage and physical assaults, have escalated tensions and drawn international criticism.
