Earlier today, Israeli forces shot dead four Palestinians, including a pair of brothers, in the West Bank. At the United Nations, U.N. Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process Tor Wennesland warned Monday that the situation in the occupied West Bank is reaching a boiling point.

Tor Wennesland: “Mr. President, after decades of persistent violence, illegal settlement expansion, dormant negotiation and deepening occupation, the conflict is again reaching a boiling point.”
