Since October 7, 2023, Israel has significantly increased its use of airstrikes in the occupied West Bank, leading to concerns that it is adopting the same military tactics used in the Gaza Strip. According to Israeli human rights group B’Tselem, there has been a significant rise in airstrikes in the West Bank, with at least 69 strikes resulting in the deaths of 261 people, including 41 minors. The intensification of airstrikes has been particularly notable since January 19, with at least 28 deaths occurring since then.
B’Tselem has condemned Israel’s use of airstrikes in the West Bank, stating that it is unprecedented in the history of the occupation. The rise in airstrikes is seen as part of a broader trend of escalating violence and human rights violations in the West Bank, with operations increasing since the ceasefire in Gaza on January 19.
The increasing use of airstrikes in the West Bank has raised concerns about the impact on civilians, particularly children. Human rights groups have called for an end to the airstrikes and for greater accountability for human rights violations in the region. The situation in the West Bank remains tense, with fears that Israel’s military actions could further escalate the conflict and exacerbate the humanitarian crisis in the occupied territory.
