The US State Department spokesman, Ned Price, condemned the escalating settlers’ violence in the West Bank since yesterday, which resulted in the killing of one Palestinian, injuries to over 100 others, and the destruction of extensive property.

“These developments underscore the imperative to immediately de-escalate tensions in words and deeds,” he said in a tweet.

“The United States will continue to work with Israelis and Palestinians and our regional partners towards restoring calm,” the US spokesman concluded.
