Israel committed to stop authorization of any settler outposts in the occupied West Bank for six months during a meeting on Sunday with Palestinian officials in Jordan when the sides pledged to prevent more violence.
In a joint statement at the end of a meeting in the Red Sea resort of Aqaba, Israeli and Palestinian officials said that after "thorough and frank discussions" they would work closely to prevent "further violence" and "reaffirmed the necessity of committing to de-escalation on the ground".
