Israeli police evacuated two West Bank outposts, sparking scuffles with settlers. Wednesday’s raid on Hazon David, a cargo container and tent set up in the “Pilgrim’s Passage” linking Hebron’s Cave of the Patriarchs with Kiryat Arba, was the second this week. Hundreds of settler youth descended on the site and had to be removed by police. There was no resistance at Bat Ayin West-West, in Samaria, where two abandoned caravans were removed.
