Palestinian foreign ministry condemns Israeli attacks on Bedouin community

The Palestinian foreign ministry has issued a statement calling attention to the repeated attacks on the occupied West Bank’s Bedouin community, Al Jazeera reports.

It says the violent attacks by settlers are an attempt to seize more areas of the occupied Palestinian territory, and cites the burning down of a Palestinian’s home in the Ma’rajat area and an Israeli settler’s attempt to bulldoze another home in the village of Jiftlik.

“The ministry observes this aggressive war with extreme seriousness and considers it an attempt by the settler associations to plunder and steal Palestinian land,” the statement reads.

It said Israeli far-right ministers are aware of the attacks and support them.
