Palestinian American challenges Israeli army outside his home in the West Bank

For more than a week, militant ​Israeli settlers have encircled Palestinian homes in the West Bank village of Qusra, despite the deployment of the Israeli military. The ongoing siege has prompted Palestinian-American Loui Ridi to come back to his hometown, out of fear that he could lose his property there. On Tuesday he confronted settlers on his land.
