Israeli forces kill Palestinian child, assault worshippers in occupied West Bank raid

Assaults targeting residents, their property

Illegal settlers stormed the al Khalayel area south of the village early Friday, fired live fire in its surroundings, and carried out repeated assaults targeting residents and their property.

Israeli forces and illegal settlers have killed at least 1,107 Palestinians in the West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem, injured nearly 11,000, and detained around 21,000 since October 2023, Palestinian figures showed.

In a landmark opinion last July, the International Court of Justice declared Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory illegal and called for the evacuation of all settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
