France strongly condemned the seizure of several Palestinian homes by Israeli settlers in Qusra, a town south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank. The French foreign ministry expressed condemnation of the violence against Palestinian civilians at the hands of Israeli settlers, urging Israeli authorities to arrest and prosecute those responsible.
