NNA - Britain's foreign minister, David Lammy, on Friday called a deadly Israeli settler attack on a Palestinian village "abhorrent" and condemned it "in the strongest of terms".

"The scenes overnight of the burning and the torching of buildings, of the Molotov cocktails thrown at cars... and chasing of people from their homes is abhorrent, and I condemn it in the strongest of terms," he told reporters during a visit to Jerusalem. -- AFP
