WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The United States has determined that alleged human rights violations by a Israeli Defense Force unit have been “effectively remediated” after reviewing new information provided by Israel, the State Department said on Friday. Following the determination, the unit involved, the Netzah Yehuda battalion, can continue to receive U.S. security assistance, spokesperson Matthew Miller said in an email.The U.S. had called for a criminal investigation after battalion soldiers were accused of being involved in the death of a 78-year-old Palestinian-American man. Before receiving new information in April, Washington was reportedly intending to designate the unit under a U.S. law that prohibits military assistance to those committing gross human rights violations.
