‘This violence must stop’: USAID chief visits Palestinian youth center vandalized by settlers
Jacob Magid is The Times of Israel's US bureau chief
US Agency for International Development chief Samantha Power tweets footage from her visit this week to a Palestinian youth center in the West Bank that has been repeatedly vandalized by Israeli settlers.
“This youth center in the West Bank was once a place where thousands of Palestinians came together. Repeated attacks by extremist Israeli settlers have forced its doors to close and sent shock waves of fear through the community. This violence is intolerable and must stop,” Power tweets.
