Israeli military raids and settler attacks are intensifying across the occupied West Bank, with Palestinians reporting growing destruction, displacement and violence. Al Jazeera correspondent Nida Ibrahim reports from Qalandiya, where Palestinian homes and businesses have been damaged during Israeli operations.
In Masafer Yatta, residents describe an increase in settler attacks, including arson and assaults that have injured civilians, including children. Palestinians say the escalation has created a climate of fear and accuse the international community of failing to hold perpetrators accountable.
