Israeli Soldiers Kill 3 Palestinians as Dozens of Israeli Settlers Attack West Bank Village
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the occupied West Bank, dozens of Israeli settlers attacked the town
of Kafr Malek Wednesday, setting homes and vehicles on fire in an attack
that culminated in Israeli soldiers killing three Palestinians.
Officials in the West Bank said the settlers were acting "under the
protection of the Israeli army." Meanwhile, Israeli forces fatally shot
a 15-year-old Palestinian boy during a raid on al-Yamoun.

Meanwhile, President Trump has called for the immediate cancellation of
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption trial in Israel,
which is set to resume on Monday. In a rambling social media post, Trump
condemned the case as a "witch-hunt" and said Netanyahu should be
pardoned.
