❗️Israeli occupation authorities detain European lawmakers amid West Bank siege According to statements provided to Anadolu Agency, Israeli border officials detained a prominent international delegation for eight hours earlier today, denying them entry into the occupied West Bank. The 23-member Progressive International delegation—which included British MP Clive Lewis, Scottish National Party MP Lara Bird, and Scottish Greens MSP Kate Nevens—intended to travel to the territory to stand in solidarity with Palestinian farmers facing ongoing settler attacks during the olive harvest season. Nevens described the eight-hour interrogation and detention as a frightening ordeal, noting that it offered a small window into the systemic intimidation and movement restrictions that Palestinians endure daily at military border points. The exclusion of foreign lawmakers follows an announcement by the Israeli military imposing a total closure on all West Bank land crossings, citing heightened security measures ahead of today's national parliamentary election. While international observers were turned away at border crossings, Israeli occupation forces expanded a major military offensive in Hebron for a fifth consecutive day, imposing sweeping curfews and converting residential structures into military outposts. Statements from the Hebron municipality confirm that the ongoing Israeli military campaign has forcibly displaced nearly 5,000 Palestinians—comprising roughly 780 families—from the Deir Bahha and Al-Jilda neighborhoods.
