French, Belgian and Polish diplomatic representatives were targeted in a settler attack in Taybeh in the occupied West Bank on October 17, according to French officials and reporting. A visiting French mayor was also assaulted during the olive-harvest visit. France and Poland condemned the attack. Israeli officials and the military also condemned the violence; Netanyahu’s office separately questioned the evidence. The incident is distinct from the previous day’s attack on a photojournalist.
