HRW: Settler Violence Forcing Palestinians Out
Reports from Human Rights Watch indicate an escalation in settler attacks in the West Bank, leading increasingly to the forced displacement of Palestinians. Since the beginning of 2023, approximately 5,900 residents have been forced to leave their homes due to these attacks, which have included the killing of 15 people, including two children, assaults, property destruction, and restrictions on access to vital resources such as water and grazing lands. Israeli authorities arm and fund the settlers, granting them immunity, while legal investigations against the attackers have significantly diminished. These attacks, supported by millions of shekels and the expansion of settlements, contribute to the deepening of unlawful settler-driven displacement and worsen the humanitarian and political situation in the region.
