Record rise in settler violence since start of 2025: Report

A notable escalation of Israeli settler violence has been reported across several areas in the West Bank, warned the National Bureau for Defending Land and Resisting Settlements.

"The occupation authorities are wreaking havoc and destruction in the West Bank and expanding their use of brutal tools in all villages and towns," the latest report read. 

According to the bureau, the pace of settlements has only increased since October 2023, as settlers destroy agricultural land and infrastructure alongside the protection of Israeli forces.

So far, at least 11 Palestinians have been killed in settler attacks since the start of this year, with over 696 wounded.
