Israeli police arrest 10 over settler attacks on journalist and diplomats in West Bank

Israeli police arrested 10 suspects in the occupied West Bank after separate attacks by masked settlers on Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine and European diplomats last week. Levine suffered four broken vertebrae, a broken rib and lacerations when attacked while covering an olive harvest in Abu Falah on Friday; diplomats from Belgium, France, Poland and the Catholic Church were assaulted the following day in nearby Taybeh. Israeli human rights group Yesh Din documented 269 incidents of settler violence linked to the olive harvest over 20 days, including 98 cases of physical assault against Palestinian harvesters.
