民主党联邦众议员罗・卡纳于周六表示，本周早些时候他在约旦河西岸一处村庄考察时，遭到以色列定居者以及军方短暂扣留。
这名来自加利福尼亚州的议员在社交平台发文称，周三他一行人前往约旦河西岸小镇希尔贝特・扎努塔附近，“手持美制 M4 步枪的定居者” 将他和同行的其他美国人围困在大巴车内。
卡纳周四接受路透社采访时介绍，定居者先是封堵道路，随后联系了军方。
卡纳在 X 平台上声称，以色列国防军抵达现场后，“选择偏袒定居者，并继续扣留我们。”
这名议员向路透社补充，以色列国防军官兵和以色列平民沟通之后，才移走了堵路车辆。
以色列国防军发布声明表示，周三接到报警，有以色列平民 “非法阻拦外国公民与媒体车辆通行”。 声明写道：“接到通报后，以军部队立刻赶赴现场，迅速驱散相关平民，恢复道路通行。在该区域执勤的以军士兵并未参与封路。”
以军还称，正在核查事件中持枪人员的身份。
卡纳在社交帖文中表示，以色列国防军 “犯下严重错误”，并在文末写道：“后续大家会了解更多详情。”
Rep. Ro Khanna says he was 'detained' by Israeli settlers, military during West Bank visit
Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said Saturday that he was briefly "detained" by Israeli settlers and the military during a visit to a West Bank village earlier in the week.
The California congressman said in a social media post that while he was on the trip on Wednesday near the West Bank hamlet of Khirbet Zanuta "settlers, brandishing American made M4s" detained him and other Americans who were with him in a bus.
In an interview with Reuters on Thursday, Khanna said the settlers blocked the road and then called the military.
Khanna claimed in his X post that when the Israel Defense Forces arrived, they "sided with the settlers&continued our detention."
The IDF moved the vehicles blocking the roadway after speaking with the Israeli civilians, the congressman told Reuters.
The IDF said in a statement that it received calls on Wednesday of Israeli civilians who "were unlawfully blocking the vehicles of foreign nationals and members of the media."
"Upon receiving the report, IDF troops were dispatched to the scene, quickly dispersed the Israeli civilians, and reopened the blocked road. The IDF soldiers operating in the area did not take part in blocking the road," the IDF said in a statement.
The IDF added the identity of the armed individual connected with the incident is under review.
Khanna said in the social media post that the IDF "made a big mistake," and ended his statement with "you will be hearing more soon."
