Palestinian American returns to West Bank home as settlers keep up pressure

Loui Ridi travelled back to his family property in Qusra on Monday after relatives had been guarding it during a confrontation with Israeli settlers.

Palestinian American Loui Ridi returned on Monday to his home in Qusra, in the occupied West Bank, to join relatives who had been staying there to protect the property from Israeli settlers. Video shared by Al Jazeera showed his arrival at the house.

The family has been defending the site while settlers have maintained pressure around it, according to the reports. Ridi’s return brought him back to the same home that had already been under strain before he arrived.

Qusra is a Palestinian town in the northern West Bank, an area that has seen repeated clashes between residents and settlers. The latest episode fits into the wider pattern of tension around Palestinian property in the occupied territory.
