Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is due to hold a press conference this evening. It comes after Israeli troops fired warning shots toward foreign diplomats visiting the Occupied West Bank on Wednesday, its military have admitted. The military said “the delegation deviated from the approved route and entered an area where they were not authorised to be” and that soldiers fired “warning shots to distance them away”. EU diplomats were part of the delegation, diplomatic sources said.
