MP Khreisheh calls for responding to settler crimes in W. Bank

TULKAREM, ,(The Palestine Information Centre) Palestinian lawmaker Hasan Khreisheh has called for strongly confronting and responding to the ongoing crimes that are committed by extremist Jewish settlers in different areas of the West Bank.

MP Khreisheh, the second deputy speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council, called for necessarily leading a popular uprising across the West Bank to protect its towns against settler attacks.

In press remarks on Saturday, the lawmaker urged the Palestinian citizens in the West Bank to carry and use weapons as long as Jewish settlers use them in their attacks, which are “fully backed by the Israeli occupation army.”

He warned that the settler crimes in the West Bank are aimed to expel and displace the Palestinians from their homes and lands.

He called for activating all forms of resistance to confront the crimes that are committed by Israeli forces and settlers.
