Israeli President Denounces Settler Attacks Amid Fury Over Abuse of Aid Activists

Israel's president has issued a strong condemnation of settler violence as international anger grows over the mistreatment of Gaza aid activists.

The controversy erupted following the abuse of flotilla detainees by far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, sparking widespread outcry both domestically and abroad.

Critics say the government's handling of the incident underscores a broader pattern of impunity for extremist settlers. The president called for calm and respect for human rights, urging authorities to hold perpetrators accountable.
