A UN report on the humanitarian situation in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, issued Saturday dawn, said Israel killed 43 Palestinians, including 8 children, in less than a week.

5 of the victims were killed by settlers and 38 by Israeli forces, while the Israeli occupation forces injured 700 Palestinians, including 92 children, the United Nations said.

Settler-related violence in the West Bank, especially in Palestinian communities adjacent to Israeli settlements, is on the rise, as a total of 63 attacks launched by settlers against Palestinians were recorded since October 7, 2023.
