Settlers protest outside the brigade commander—and the general's backing: 'works day and night'
הפגנת המתנחלים מול המח"ט - והגיבוי מהאלוף: "פועל לילות כימים"
Summary
Tensions flared in the West Bank as protesters gathered at the Shomron Brigade headquarters after clashes in the village of Kusra, claiming the brigade commander prevented treatment of a wounded Jewish civilian—though footage suggests otherwise. Central Command chief Avi Bluth said the conduct would be examined but defended the commander: 'I stand behind him. The forces were attacked.'
