Fatalities in West Bank Rise Amid Increased Military and Settler Violence
During a United Nations Security Council reporting period ending April 28, 2026, Israeli forces and settlers killed 21 Palestinians, including six children, in the occupied West Bank. The violence has been accompanied by increased harassment, vandalism, and movement restrictions. The situation in northern West Bank refugee camps like Jenin and Tulkarm remains critical, with over 33,000 residents facing prolonged displacement amidst the largest humanitarian crisis in the territory since the ceasefire began in late 2025.
