Israeli forces escalated their field operations across the occupied West Bank, including occupied Jerusalem over the past week, carrying out more than one thousand documented violations that included killings, abductions, invasions, property destruction, and attacks on religious sites, according to a weekly report issued by the Palestine Information Center.
The center recorded 1,024 violations between Sunday and Saturday, reflecting what it described as a continued intensification of Israeli military activity and colonizer violence across Palestinian communities.
One Palestinian killed, 27 injured:
According to the report, Israeli forces killed one Palestinian during the week and injured 27 others with live ammunition, rubber‑coated metal bullets, and direct physical assaults during invasions and confrontations.
The slain Palestinian was a child boy, Mohamad Saad Sami Naasan, 14, whom the soldiers killed the village of Al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah in the central West Bank.
The injuries were documented in multiple governorates, often during pre‑dawn operations or in densely populated areas.
167 abductions and 13 expulsion orders from Jerusalem:
As part of an ongoing policy of repression and pursuit, Israeli forces carried out 167 abductions targeting Palestinians from various districts of the occupied West Bank.
In occupied Jerusalem, authorities issued 13 expulsion orders banning Palestinians from the city or from the Al‑Aqsa Mosque compound, in measures that rights groups say directly restrict religious freedom and target prominent community figures.
Hundreds of invasions:
The Center documented 177 invasions of Palestinian cities, towns, and refugee camps during the week.
These violations included 167 home invasions, during which soldiers searched properties, damaged belongings, and in many cases forced families outside while the searches were conducted.
Israeli forces also imposed 202 movement restrictions at military roadblocks and carried out 47 road closures, blocking village entrances and main roads.
These measures severely disrupted daily life, delayed workers and students, and restricted access to essential services.
Property destruction and colonizer attacks:
The report recorded 43 incidents of property destruction, including damage to homes, commercial structures, and vehicles.
In parallel, illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers carried out 76 attacks against Palestinians, their agricultural land, and their property.
These attacks, often conducted in front of Israeli occupation forces, included assaults on farmers, vandalism of vehicles, destruction of crops, and attempts to seize land in areas threatened by settlement expansion.
Attacks on religious sites and disruption of education:
The week also saw five attacks on religious sites, including incursions into mosques and attempts to restrict access to places of worship. These incidents as part of a growing pattern of violations targeting religious freedom.
In some of the documented cases, Israeli operations and road closures disrupted the educational process, preventing students and teachers from reaching schools.
Forced displacement:
The week’s violations resulted in 20 cases of forced displacement, with families compelled to leave their homes due to military pressure, colonizers’ violence, or demolition threats.
The Center noted that these incidents form part of a broader pattern of systematic displacement, particularly in areas facing intensified settlement activity.
