Summary
Issa Amro, a Palestinian activist known for his work against illegal settlements in Hebron, had his home raided by Israeli soldiers after appearing in Louis Theroux’s documentary *The Settlers*. Accused of spreading false information during the raid, Amro faces harsher language from soldiers and settlers alike. Meanwhile, the IDF accuses him of providing "false information," while international bodies like the UN Security Council have condemned the settlements as illegal. Theroux has reached out to Amro’s supporters for clarification amid growing tension in the West Bank.
