Settler groups hold protests across West Bank in wake of deadly shooting attack

Groups of settlers are protesting at several sites this evening in the wake of the murder earlier today of Meir Tamari.

Some are gathering at the site where Tamari was shot dead earlier today in a Palestinian attack near Hermesh.

Other groups are gathering near Tekoa and Kiryat Arba in the southern West Bank, and near the Shiloh Junction and near Beit El, as well as a handful of other places.

Activists behind the protests say they are “not waiting for more funerals,” and instead are “going out to fight for our lives.”

Some settler groups have blamed the IDF for not having enough of a presence in the West Bank near where Tamari was shot dead. A number of Israelis have been hurt or killed in West Bank terror attacks in recent months.
