Fear Spreads from Gaza to the West Bank:...

The New Arab
About this episode

Violence in Gaza has continued to intensify. 

The death toll passed the grim milestone this week, with over 10,000 now killed. 

In addition to the ongoing violence in Gaza, the West Bank is also seeing an increased level of attacks by Israeli settlers and increased oppression by the Israeli occupation forces. 

This week on The New Arab Voice, why is violence rising in the West Bank, how are Palestinians in the West Bank feeling about the conflict in Gaza, and what is the Palestinian authority doing?

Joining us to explain the situation on the ground, we’re joined by The New Arab’s West Bank correspondent, Qassam Muaddi (@QassaMMuaddi). 

Also, we speak with Nur Arafeh, a fellow at the Malcolm H. Kerr Carnegie Middle East Center (@CarnegieMEC).
