A United Nations inquiry has accused Israeli authorities of enabling settler violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. The report states that Israeli security forces have frequently protected settlers during attacks, which have surged significantly since 2023. These incidents, often involving masked assailants, have resulted in Palestinian deaths, injuries, and displacement.
The commission found that financial and military support from Israeli authorities, coupled with a climate of impunity, has fostered this violence.

This report highlights serious allegations of state complicity in violence and human rights abuses, potentially escalating international scrutiny and legal challenges against Israel's actions in the West Bank.
