Palestine weekly: Global outcry fails to break West Bank siege
- For more than a week, Israeli settlers have besieged three Palestinian families in their homes in Qusra, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank, cutting them off from basic supplies and emergency services.
- Settlers used the same tactic just last month to force the al-Tubassi family from their home in Jalud.
- This time, however, with one of the besieged Qusra homes belonging to a Palestinian-American, the siege has become front-page news.
