From The Guardians Today in Focus, this is the latest with me, Lucy Hoff.

A British activist was reportedly kidnapped by Israeli militant settlers in the West Bank, handed to Israeli police and now deported back to the UK.
voice-verified
Emma Graham Harrison, you're our chief Middle East correspondent.
voice-verified
What happened to Finn Jokin in the West Bank?
voice-verified
Because the footage of his abduction kidnapping is particularly harrowing to watch.
voice-verified
Okay, and he has now been deported yesterday back to the UK.
voice-verified
Um what is the Israeli justification for his arrest and deportation?
voice-verified
Well it speaks to something about the systemic nature of this, doesn't it?
voice-verified
That someone protesting against the illegal settler activity in the West Bank is arrested and deported rather than the settlers themselves by Israeli police.
voice-verified
Um, given the illegality of settlements in the West Bank under international law, what's been the response of the British government about this case thus far?
voice-verified
Okay.
voice-verified
Well that's disappointing to s to say the least.
voice-verified
Since October the seventh there has been a surge in attacks on Palestinians, ethnic cleansing in parts of the West Bank, in addition, of course, to the decades of such activity prior to October twenty twenty three.
voice-verified
But there has been a real surge in such attacks, in such violence in the last few weeks in particular.
voice-verified
Can you tell me what's been going on?
voice-verified
So this attack on foreign journalists was an attack on the American broadcaster MBC who'd sent a team to cover this surge in in violence in these particular towns.
voice-verified
Does America responding in any way?
voice-verified
Yeah.
voice-verified
So Israel are moving forward with what's being called the E One settlement, which is effectively seeking an end to the two state solution.
voice-verified
It has been met by huge international condemnation.
