Israel Kills a Child Every 2 Days on West Bank

A new report from @DCIPalestine finds that Israeli forces and settlers killed Palestinian children in the West Bank at a rate of one every two days from October 7, 2023–July 31, 2024.

Twenty percent of the Palestinian children killed by Israeli forces and settlers in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, since 2000 have been killed after October 7, 2023 at a rate of one child every two days, Defense for Children International – Palestine said in a latest report released on 9 September, 2024.

The report, “Targeting Childhood: Palestinian children killed by Israeli forces and settlers in the occupied West Bank,” details and analyzes Palestinian child fatalities in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, between October 7, 2023, and July 31, 2024.

Israeli forces routinely targeted Palestinian children with live ammunition and aerial attacks, prevented ambulances and paramedics from reaching wounded children, and confiscated children’s bodies in violation of international law.

Everyone sees it and understands.” – The Palestine Project
