According to a new analysis by Oxfam, 1,244 Palestinians, including 268 children, have been killed in the occupied West Bank over the past three years in attacks by Israeli forces and settlers. Citing United Nations data, the organization said this figure exceeds the total from the previous 17 years, when 1,036 Palestinians, including 225 children, were killed in the same region.

During the same three-year period, 43 Israeli settlers, including 10 children, were killed in attacks by Palestinians, compared to 86 deaths, including 12 children, over the prior 17 years. Oxfam also reported that nearly 46,000 Palestinians were displaced in the past three years, up from about 13,000 over the previous 14 years, due to military operations, settler violence, home demolitions, and movement restrictions.

The report noted that in the first three months of this year alone, there were more than 540 settler attacks, 33 Palestinians killed, and over 2,200 displaced. Oxfam official Bushra Khalidi described the civilian killings in the West Bank as horrific and said violence there has sharply increased alongside the conflict in Gaza.
