Asked by
To ask Her Majesty's Government what representations they are making to the Government of Israel about the alleged deaths of two Palestinians, the wounding of 75 others, the destruction of 3,400 trees and the killing of 25 sheep, caused by Israeli colonists on the West Bank since the beginning of 2009. [HL5771]
We are concerned by recent reports of attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank. The UK has consistently condemned such acts of violence. We continue to urge the Israeli authorities to enforce the rule of law and take action to prevent such incidents.
