Axios: US Pressuring Israel to Curb Attacks in West Bank

The United States is pressuring Israel to limit attacks by settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank, according to a report by Axios. President Trump and his top advisors discussed the issue with Prime Minister Netanyahu during a recent meeting. The West Bank, home to 2.7 million Palestinians, has long been at the center of plans for a future Palestinian state alongside Israel. The increase in violence and attacks by settlers has raised international concerns. The pressure on Israel is part of a broader effort to de-escalate tensions in the region and promote a sustainable solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The US stance indicates a growing concern about the situation in the West Bank and its implications for peace and security.
