UN reports 13 Palestinians killed by Israeli troops in West Bank

Israeli forces have killed 13 Palestinians and injured 26 over an eight-day period across the occupied West Bank, according to a UN report. The report also noted 35 attacks by Israeli settlers that resulted in injuries to Palestinians and damage to their property.

Of the 13 fatalities, five—including a child—occurred between October 29 and November 4. The remaining eight were killed on November 5, when Israeli forces conducted four military operations in Jenin, Tubas, and Tulkarem.

The UN stated that all victims were either shot, killed in airstrikes, or targeted with “other lethal war-like tactics.”

The report added that Israeli soldiers obstructed the Palestine Red Crescent Society from assisting one victim, who “was left bleeding for nearly an hour” and was amongst four killed during an Israeli raid.
