UN Condemns Israeli 'War-Like' Tactics and Settler Attacks in West Bank

The United Nations raises alarm over increased violence affecting Palestinian lives and livelihoods amid ongoing regional tensions.

The UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) criticized Israel for employing 'war-like' tactics in the West Bank.
Between October 8-14, nine Palestinians, including a child, were reportedly killed by Israeli forces.
Israeli settlers have allegedly attacked Palestinians and vandalized olive groves, a crucial economic resource for many families.
Reports include the death of a Palestinian woman while harvesting olives in Jenin, highlighting the violence during the olive harvest season.
International concern is growing, with some countries imposing sanctions on violent settlers and urging Israel to curb the violence.
