France: Israeli settler violence is ‘policy of terror’

France has denounced Israeli settler violence in the occupied West Bank on Thursday, calling it a "policy of terror" aimed at displacing Palestinians.

France urged Israeli authorities to protect Palestinians from the violence.

Speaking to reporters, foreign ministry spokesperson Anne-Claire Legendre also said that about half the 100 tonnes of aid France had sent to Gaza had now entered the enclave. 

She added that it was not up to Israel to decide the future governance of Gaza, which she said should be part of a future Palestinian state.
