European countries warn against demolishing West Bank hamlet
Major European countries have issued a rare joint statement warning Israel against its planned demolition of a Bedouin encampment in the West Bank.
France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom said on Monday its strategic location is important to maintain "contiguity of a future Palestinian state."
"The consequences a demolition and displacement would have on the residents ... as well as on the prospects of the two-state solution would be very serious," their statement said.
