A new report by Defence for Children International-Palestine (DCIP) details how Israeli forces and settlers have killed more than 140 Palestinian children in the occupied West Bank since 7 October.
The researchers at DCIP documented the number of Palestinian children killed between 7 October 2023 and 31 July 2024, which totalled 141 children.
On average, this comes out to Israeli forces and settlers killing a child every two days during this period.
In many cases, the children were targeted by snipers, who are regularly deployed during military incursions into Palestinian communities across the West Bank.
