But the officials did miss a hold (or two) on white which maybe could have stopped the play with just a common foul on White.
I wish we had a wider view to see the officials, and also more time after the foul to see how the officials reacted.

I agree. You really need some context in order to understand what's going on. Had the two players been going at it earlier in the game and should that have been addressed?
There is an illegal screen. Black moves and extends her hip. Perhaps time, score and the way the game had been called dictated passing on it, but it is still an illegal screen.
Clearly there is then an extended hold that deserved a whistle prior to the flagrant foul. I'm willing to bet this isn't the first altercation between those two during that game.
