UNRWA says October ‘on track to be the most violent month’ since it began tracking settler violence in 2013.
Israeli settlers have intensified attacks on Palestinians during the olive harvest in the West Bank, with UNRWA reporting October as potentially the most violent month since 2013. Recent incidents include shootings of Palestinian farmers and extensive vandalism of olive trees. The UN highlights that these assaults threaten the livelihoods and heritage of Palestinians, exacerbating tensions amid ongoing conflict. Israeli settlement expansion further complicates access to farmland, drawing international condemnation.
