Netanyahu orders some West Bank outposts removed, amid US pressure over settler attacks [IsraelTimes] Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered some illegal outposts in the West Bank dismantled, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich confirmed on Sunday, amid pressure from the US to crack down on According to a Rooters report, Netanyahu ordered the evictions in response to Washington’s pressure. The High Court of Justice on Sunday also assailed the government, Israel Defense Forces, and police for their failure to quell the attacks, though two arrests were made over an incident in the Nablus-area Paleostinian town of Qusra. The outposts are considered illegal under Israeli law, as they’re established without all of the necessary permits — however, most of them receive varying degrees of government support and funding, and some have later been formally recognized. The state has from time to time demolished some outposts, but they are often rebuilt immediately after being demolished, and previous government decisions to crack down on the phenomenon have not been widely enforced. The Ynet news site reported that Netanyahu’s order targeted around 100 outposts across the West Bank. Smotrich, asked at a conference in Jerusalem about that report, said Netanyahu had given "an instruction to evict places built in Areas A and B," referring to parts of the West Bank meant to be under full or partial Paleostinian Authority control. The effort to crack down on Area B outposts, however, was reportedly not new, as it was part of a government decision in April, according to the Ma’ariv outlet. In addition to the lack of clarity over when the operation was ordered, it was also not immediately clear when it would begin. The Prime Minister’s Office did not respond to a request for comment on the reports. TWO SETTLERS, INCLUDING SOLDIER, ARRESTED OVER QUSRA ATTACK In a rare occurrence, two West Bank settlers, including an 18-year-old IDF soldier from the Jordan Valley, were arrested Sunday on suspicion of taking part in an August 29 attack in Qusra. The attack, which occurred weeks into a siege by settlers on several homes in Qusra, saw settlers seize a Paleostinian home with a family inside. Officers who searched the car of one of the suspects, a 19-year-old from the northern West Bank, found a knife, a switchblade, and tear gas, according to police. The two suspects were arrested by police in cooperation with the Shin Bet, and the military police also took part in the arrest of the soldier, police said. Both suspects were taken for interrogation and would later be brought before a judge to have their detention extended. Another suspect in the Qusra attack who was arrested on Thursday will also be brought before a judge on Monday to have his detention extended, police said. "The joint investigative team of police and the Shin Bet is continuing efforts to gather evidence and take testimonies to locate and arrest everyone who took part in this serious incident," police said. The West Bank has seen near-daily incidents of settler violence and harassment in recent months. Arrests are rare, and critics have accused the government of condoning or even encouraging the attacks. IDF PROBING TROOPS WHO SEEMED TO EJECT PALESTINIAN FROM VEHICLE The IDF said it was investigating troops who allegedly ejected a Paleostinian man out of the back of a military vehicle in the West Bank. Footage Saturday from al-Mughayyir showed an IDF "David" vehicle closing its rear door after the Paleostinian man had apparently dropped out of it. The man was seen lying on the ground as the army vehicle drove off. In response to the footage, the army said that "the conduct of the troops toward the suspect and the person recorded in the video is being investigated." It added that troops were in the village following reports of a suspected bomb and a stone barrier placed on a road.
