IDF Fails to Remove Settler Extremists Besieging Palestinian Home in West Bank, Reports Say

The IDF attempted to dismantle an illegal settler outpost and reopen access to homes in the West Bank village of Qusra, but the operation was unsuccessful after extremists obstructed the road with rocks and clashes erupted as troops arrived. A Palestinian family said they had been trapped since Sunday with water and electricity cut off. Security officials said the outpost evacuation plan was reportedly leaked in advance, allowing settlers to swarm to the area. The IDF later said additional forces would be deployed to restore order.
