Palestinians face rising settler attacks in Area B of occupied West Bank

Palestinians in Qaryut, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank, say increasing Israeli settler attacks and military restrictions are making life increasingly dangerous and forcing families to leave. The village is surrounded by at least seven illegal Israeli settlements and outposts. Residents say settlers are taking over more land and threatening Palestinian families, while Israeli soldiers prevent some farmers from accessing their olive groves. In March, two Palestinian brothers were killed by Israeli settlers near their home, and the attackers remain free, according to the report. Qaryut lies in Area B, which is under partial Palestinian control while Israel retains security control. Residents say this status offers them little protection. Dozens of families have already been forced to leave the village. Palestinians say Israeli authorities and settlers are creating a coercive environment aimed at driving them from their land.
