Targeting Childhood in the West Bank-By Area

From October 7, 2023–July 31, 2024, Israeli forces and settlers killed Palestinian children in the West Bank at a rate of one child every two days. We partnered with Defense for Children International-Palestine (DCIP) to create visuals for their new report, “Targeting Childhood: Palestinian Children Killed by Israeli Forces and Settlers in the Occupied West Bank”.

They killed a total of 141 Palestinian children during the reporting period. The majority—116 children—were killed with live ammunition targeting vital areas like the head and torso.
