Israeli forces and settlers killed 534 Palestinians in the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem in 2024, including 80 children, 21 women, and 23 elderly individuals. The killings reflect the ongoing brutality of the Israeli occupation against Palestinians and their land, as reported by the Palestinian Information Center, "Ma'ti."
Amid this violence, Palestinian resistance surged dramatically, with 1,143 shooting incidents, 31 stabbings or attempted stabbings, and 21 car-ramming operations reported. These actions resulted in the deaths of 48 Israelis and injuries to over 386, showcasing the resilience of a population fighting for survival and dignity.
In a moment of significant resistance, Ja'far Muna from Nablus carried out a martyrdom bombing in Tel Aviv during the Al-Aqsa Flood Battle. This operation, claimed by Al-Qassam and Al-Quds Brigades, injured an Israeli settler and evoked memories of the first and second Intifadas, symbolising the enduring spirit of defiance against occupation.
The human toll on Palestinians, particularly the loss of children and families shattered by violence, underscores the dire need for justice. These escalating crimes against civilians reveal the deepening humanitarian crisis in the occupied territories.
As international silence persists, Palestinians remain steadfast, facing immense suffering while continuing their struggle for freedom, dignity, and their basic human rights.
