Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu strongly condemned Israeli rioters who broke into a home in the Palestinian village of Kuseira in the West Bank while the residents barricaded themselves inside and threw stones. Several Palestinians were injured during the incident. Netanyahu described the actions as "wicked violence that harms Israel's standing in the world."

New footage published by the AP news agency showed settlers inside the house in Kuseira. Security officials told N12 that the first IDF force to arrive at the scene faced a difficult situation. The unit consisted of only six reservist soldiers who encountered about 50 settlers storming the home and confronting the family inside. The soldiers decided to separate the opposing sides rather than arrest the majority, allowing most rioters to escape.

Later, Border Police forces arrived with riot dispersal equipment, causing the settlers to flee. This explains why no arrests have been made so far, according to the military. Security sources characterized the event as an organized attack supported by a logistical infrastructure, involving approximately 70 armed settlers carrying stones and clubs who came to raid the village homes in a coordinated manner.
