> Israeli settlers are carrying out violence and intimidation in Qusra, a Palestinian village in the occupied West Bank.

France 24 correspondent Noga Tarnopolsky says the defence minister is using settler violence for political propaganda, while far-right pressure keeps the army from removing violent settlers.
