U.N. Update on the West Bank. Dec 26

One in every four Palestinians killed by Israeli forces or settlers in the West Bank is a child, based on data from 2025.

Over the past two weeks, over 100 Palestinians were displaced by demolitions and evictions.

Half of them were displaced in the Silwan area of East Jerusalem when Israeli authorities demolished a four-storey building for lacking Israeli-issued building permits, which are near impossible for Palestinians to obtain.

Meanwhile, Israeli authorities issued demolition orders for 25 buildings in Nur Shams Camp (Tulkarm governorate), affecting about 70 households; while the orders were frozen following legal action, residents faced access restrictions and limited time to retrieve belongings.

In the past three years, settler violence and access restrictions have driven displacement across 85 Palestinian communities and areas in the West Bank, with 33 fully emptied of their residents.
