🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
Even journalists aren't safe from settler violence, which means the story is getting harder to ignore.
💡 Why it matters
These attacks threaten press freedom and escalate tensions in a region already on edge.

BBC and NBC News documented attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians and a news crew in the occupied West Bank over the past week. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the violence by a handful of rioters.
