It accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and members of his government, particularly Defence Minister Israel Katz, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, of providing political backing for occupier attacks.
According to the report, the attacks are aimed at displacing Palestinian farming and pastoral communities and seizing their land while perpetrators enjoy widespread impunity.
Citing data from the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, the report said more than 1,330 illegal settler attacks had been documented in the occupied West Bank since the beginning of 2026.
It said the attacks included arson targeting homes and mosques, damage to agricultural facilities and water networks, and violence that forced Palestinian families, as well as Bedouin and pastoral communities, to leave their homes.
The Palestinian Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission said Israeli illegal settlers carried out about 12,500 attacks in the occupied West Bank during the first 1,000 days of Israel’s genocidal war in Gaza, killing 82 Palestinians, starting 890 fires and establishing 200 illegal settlement outposts.
According to official Palestinian figures, Israeli military and illegal settler attacks in the occupied West Bank since October 2023 have killed more than 1,182 Palestinians, injured about 13,000 others and resulted in the arrest of 24,600 people.
