A US envoy has called a settler blockade of Palestinian homes in Qusra, near Nablus, an “act of terror”, as Israel moved into the area, NDTV reports. Settlers have blocked the homes since Sunday, cutting residents off from food and other essential supplies. One of the properties belongs to a US citizen. The report does not identify the envoy or provide details on the Israeli operation. The account centres on the blockade and the reported impact on residents in the West Bank.
