For the past year, Israel escalated its assault on the occupied West Bank and accelerated killings, forced displacement, state-sanctioned settler terrorism and mass arbitrary arrests. This has been happening amid Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza, employing the same tactics of violence, destruction, and displacement.

In September 2024, Israel launched a major coordinated military invasion of major areas in the West Bank, the biggest since the early 2000s, particularly in the northern areas of Jenin and Tulkarem.
