Israeli Settler Violence, Military Raids Intensify Across West Bank

The occupied West Bank, particularly areas like Masafer Yatta and Nablus, is experiencing escalating violence and displacement due to Israeli military operations and settler attacks. Palestinian residents face frequent home demolitions, physical assaults, and psychological trauma, with some villages losing up to 85% of their homes and many individuals requiring hospitalization. Israeli forces have conducted widespread raids, resulting in multiple abductions, at least one shooting injury, and obstruction of medical services, further exacerbating the humanitarian crisis. In Gaza, ongoing Israeli airstrikes and ground operations continue to destroy homes and critical infrastructure, forcing thousands to flee and heightening concerns over violations of international law, including potential war crimes related to forced displacement. The expansion of Israeli settlements in the West Bank has increased significantly since the October 2023 Hamas attack, intensifying tensions and drawing international scrutiny, including legislative efforts abroad like Ireland's proposed Occupied Territories Bill. These developments underscore the severe and worsening humanitarian impact on Palestinians living under occupation, marked by daily threats to life, health, and stability.
