Settler attacks on Nablus

A recent UN report shows that Nablus has a high count of settler attacks (from October 2023 to November 2024).

The map shows the accumulated number of attacks by illegal Israeli settlers during the two months of October and November 2024.

These 394 incidents happened over just 13 months. While some might be relatively minor, others involve arson, violence and murder.

Settlers are allowed to carry guns – indeed, their government encourages them and even arms them.

Palestinians are not armed and so they live in great fear. These settlers have established their illegal settlements close to Palestinian communities.

FONSA cannot stop these attacks but our work together encourages Palestinians to know that there are people in the world who care.

Our donations help to maintain life during these difficult times.
