‘Our aim is that children are protected’: besieged West Bank school fortifies its defences against settler violence
A school in the West Bank town of al‑Mughayyir is bolstering its security after five pupils were killed by Israeli settlers in the previous academic year. Teachers and students are on heightened alert, with new barriers, watch groups and stricter entry checks installed. Officials say protecting children remains the school’s top priority amid continuing settler‑related tensions.
