Escalating Tensions in the West Bank

1 week ago 0

This past weekend, violence intensified in the West Bank amid reports from Palestinians claiming Israeli settlers set fire to two mosques. The UN has accused Israeli settlers of escalating attacks and expanding their presence in the West Bank, a territory Palestinians envision as their future state. In contrast, Israel attributes the violence to Palestinians. The situation was covered by Producer Karl Bostic and Correspondent Nick Schifrin.
