U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called on Israel to take strong action against settler violence in Judea and Samaria. "We are very disturbed by these images and what we are seeing. We have asked the Israelis, and we continue to ask them, to take strong action against these things," Rubio said following the attack on American photojournalist Heidi Levine on Friday. According to him, the State Department has requested clarification on the circumstances of the attack, and he expects to receive answers from the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem by Sunday.
