2026: Surge in West Bank Martyrs
The West Bank recorded an unprecedented escalation in attacks by Israeli settlers in 2026. The first eight months saw the highest number of Palestinian martyrs since monitoring began in 2019, with 25 citizens killed by August—an increase of 79% compared to the total for 2025. Most assaults occurred in Ramallah and Al-Bireh (36 martyrs), Nablus (26 martyrs), and Hebron (9 martyrs), involving shootings and arson attacks on homes aimed at intimidating residents and forcing them into forced displacement. This escalation coincides with the expansion of settlement outposts, under direct protection from the occupying army, accompanied by Palestinian calls to the international community to take practical measures to protect the Palestinian people and hold those responsible accountable.
