💨 Abstract

A deaf Palestinian man, Basim Saleh Yassin, was severely beaten by Israeli settlers in the West Bank after he couldn't hear their warnings. The 67-year-old suffered multiple broken bones and injuries. Settlers also burned four vehicles. The West Bank, nominally Palestinian, is largely controlled by Israel, with settlements encroaching on Palestinian territory. Daniella Weiss, a prominent settler leader, was sanctioned by the UK for inciting violence.
