Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz has said settler attacks and the scenes in Qusra in the occupied West Bank are “costing Israel” and “its friends", Al Jazeera reported.
The Israeli attacks, as well as the building of new illegal settlements and outposts across Palestinian territories, have continued, the report said.
The minister of defence inaugurated a new settlement in the Jenin area on Thursday, shortly after Israeli soldiers demolished Palestinian shops and properties on the same day.
