Breaking the 15-year record, only in the West Bank
According to data from Palestinian health authorities and according to data from the United Nations, since October 7th, the number of Palestinian martyrs in the occupied West Bank has exceeded those in any similar period during the past 15 years.
Up to 95 Palestinians in the Occupied West Bank have been martyred, most of them during confrontations with the IOF, while others were martyred in settler attacks.
According to Palestinian health officials, settlers wearing masks shot and murdered three Palestinians in the village of Qusra on October 11. During the funeral procession the very next day, a Palestinian father and his son were also killed.
UN data shows that after the IOF raided the Nour Shams refugee camp on Thursday, 13 Palestinians, including five children, were killed. The Israeli military announced earlier that the Nour Shams Camp is a closed military zone and has since then worked non-stop to destroy civilian infrastructure, including roads.
