Seven Democratic senators have sent a letter to US President Joe Biden urging him to further intensify Washington’s efforts to combat the uptick of settler violence, arguing that the deadly phenomenon threatens stability in the West Bank as well as broader US national security interests.
The Yesh Din rights group said Friday that there had been over 172 incidents of settler violence and harassment against Palestinians in at least 84 Palestinian towns and communities in the West Bank since Hamas’s October 7 terror onslaught.
“We urge your administration to enhance its diplomatic efforts to prevent further violence,” the US lawmakers write in the letter organized by Sen. Jon Ossoff and shared exclusively with The Times of Israel.
Ossoff is joined by Intelligence Committee chair Mark Warner (D-VA), Armed Services Committee chair Jack Reed, Sen. John Hickenlooper, Sen. Martin Heinrich, Sen. Tim Kaine and Sen. Chris Van Hollen.
