Claim 1: “Settlers have continued their attacks openly, despite the presence of Israeli soldiers”
SINGLE SOURCE
While Wikipedia provides general context on Israeli settler violence and the location of Qusra, and one web search result mentions the IDF's presence/instructions during a siege in Qusra, there is no specific corroboration from multiple independent sources confirming that settlers conducted attacks 'openly' specifically 'despite the presence of Israeli soldiers' in this particular instance. Most provided results for 'settlers' were irrelevant (video games/films).
