Palestine calls for deployment of UN monitors in West Bank amid settler attacks
RAMALLAH, Palestine (AA) – Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh on Monday called for the deployment of UN monitors in the occupied West Bank.
The call came after two Palestinians were killed on Saturday when an Israeli settler rammed his car into them in the city of Nablus.
“We call on the United Nations teams stationed in Palestine to deploy monitors on the roads and in the areas targeted by settlers,” Shtayyeh said during a Cabinet meeting in Ramallah city.
“The UN has more than 400 vehicles and more than 1,000 staff that can be trained as UN monitors to observe and document the actions of the army and settlers for the purpose of prosecution,” he added.
According to Palestinian estimates, at least 169 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli army in the West Bank in 2022.
UN figures also show that Israeli settlers carried out 793 attacks against Palestinians and their property this year, 582 of which caused damage and 211 resulted in injuries.
