The United States has called on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to condemn settler violence in Qusra, according to Al Jazeera. The report says the call comes amid a weeklong siege in the area.

Mike Huckabee, the US ambassador to Israel, described the settlers in Qusra as “Israeli terrorists,” according to the report.

Al Jazeera reported that Israeli forces blocked activists from reaching besieged families in Qusra.

Further details were not provided in the source, including the number of people affected, the circumstances on the ground, and any response from the Israeli government or Netanyahu.
