The United Nations has warned that the West Bank is 'at the breaking point' after documenting over 1,430 incidents involving Israeli settlers this year. Deputy Special Coordinator Ramiz Alakbarov told the Security Council that about 3,800 Palestinians have been displaced in 2026 due to settler violence, demolitions and evictions. The UN also reported that 76 Palestinians, including 18 children, have been killed in the West Bank this year. UNICEF said 174 Palestinian children have been killed in the West Bank since January 2024. Russia warned the territory was approaching a 'point of no return', while the US said it strongly condemns violence by any party.
