TL;DR Summary

Violence in the West Bank has escalated since October 7, with eight Palestinians killed by Israeli settlers and 147 killed by Israeli forces, according to the United Nations. The rise in settler violence has been attributed to financial incentives and the far-right influence in the Israeli government. The Israeli Prime Minister has condemned the actions of settlers, but critics argue that settlements continue to expand, causing displacement and a deteriorating humanitarian situation. The situation has led to increased tensions and fear among Palestinian families, who face the threat of violence and forced transfer from their land.
