Additionally, Israeli settlers have been reported to commit acts of assault and property destruction against Palestinians. These actions are reportedly supported by the Israeli military and have resulted in injuries and fatalities among Palestinian civilians.

Recently, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir sanctioned the issuance of gun licenses to Israelis in 18 more settlements within the West Bank. This decision aligns with the government’s efforts, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to expand illegal outposts, thereby impacting the viability of a two-state solution.
