Settler Attacks on Palestinians Increase More Than Fivefold
Reports indicate that attacks by Israeli settlers, classified as hate crimes against Palestinians, increased by 560%, rising from 139 cases in 2019 to 779 in 2025, despite only 6% of these cases resulting in convictions. A security official confirmed that the proliferation of farms and illegal settlement outposts—supported and encouraged by the government and military—has contributed to the escalation of violence, with hundreds of outposts established, unlicensed roads built across Palestinian land, and restrictions imposed on access to, and confiscation of, these lands. Data shows that the government has intensified efforts to annex land and expand settlements, establishing thousands of new housing units and developing areas in the West Bank, aiming to increase control over Palestinian territory.
