Israeli Settlers Destroy Finland-Funded Schools Amidst Government Endorsement
Images from the West Bank between 2022 and 2024, captured by groups including B’Tselem and journalist Pieter Stockmans, show EU-funded sites, some of which have been destroyed. Finland channels aid to Palestinian territories through various programs, notably contributing to the West Bank Protection Consortium, which supports infrastructure like schools. Despite joint funding making exact attribution difficult, Finland has expressed concern over settler violence and, alongside the EU, has urged Israel to take action against such destruction and sought compensation for the demolished donor-funded structures.
