Health Ministry: 100 Palestinians killed in the West Bank since the beginning of the year

Ramallah—The Ministry of Health reported that the death toll in the West Bank has risen to 100 since the beginning of this year, following the deaths of 4 citizens over the past 24 hours by Israeli occupation forces' gunfire and aggression in the governorates of Qalqilya, Nablus, and Tulkarm.
The Ministry stated in a brief press release on Tuesday that four citizens were killed during the past 24 hours in the Nablus, Qalqilya, and Tulkarm governorates.
In the Nablus Governorate, Mahmoud Muhammad Arabi Muhsen (34 years old) from the town of Qabalan died from injuries sustained from occupation forces' gunfire. The forces continue to withhold his body as of the time of this report.
Additionally, young man Abdul Karim Muhammad Khader Suleiman was killed in the town of Aqraba, after occupation forces besieged a house he was inside for about five hours, firing live ammunition and shoulder-fired missiles at it.
In the Qalqilya Governorate, young man Omar Al-Tobasi died from a gunshot wound to the head sustained during an attack by settlers on the town of Hajja. Three other citizens, including a child, were injured in two separate attacks carried out by armed settlers.
In the Tulkarm Governorate, Civil Defense crews recovered the body of As'ad Mleiha, a worker originally from the Gaza Strip who was staying at the Zakat Committee branch in Tulkarm city, which was raided by occupation forces.
With these latest casualties, the death toll in the West Bank rises to 100 since the beginning of the current year, 2026, amid ongoing daily raids by occupation forces into Palestinian cities, towns, and camps, and escalating attacks by armed settlers on villages and towns, coinciding with the continuous aggression on the Gaza Strip.

"UN: Over 900 checkpoints block aid access in the West Bank, UN says

New York, Aug. 15, 2026 – UN humanitarian partners have warned that relief work in the West Bank is facing delays and restrictions due to a network of more than 900 "physical obstacles" imposed by the Israeli occupation, including checkpoints, gates, roadblocks, and other restrictions.
The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) explained in a statement that these barriers obstruct the delivery of humanitarian aid, leaving those in need without adequate services and assistance.
It added that aid and municipal workers are struggling to secure access to three Palestinian families in the village of Qusra, south of Nablus. "These families have been trapped there since Tuesday, following the establishment of a settlement outpost next to their homes and the tightening of access restrictions in the area."
It continued, "In cooperation with municipal workers, UN partners are trying to deliver food, water, infant formula, medicine, and hygiene supplies to the people trapped inside, but these attempts have not succeeded so far."
The UN office warned that efforts to protect Palestinians have been ineffective, amid reports that settlers have re-erected a tent that Israeli occupation forces had dismantled last Thursday.
In the northern West Bank, OCHA explained that humanitarian conditions remain extremely difficult. Child protection partners have provided vital assistance, including psychosocial support, case management, and services for children with disabilities, to approximately 30,000 children and 15,000 adults since the beginning of this year.
In Gaza, OCHA indicated that humanitarian workers continue to deliver vital aid to the Strip's population despite continuous insecurity and imposed restrictions. It noted that over the past week, the UN and its partners mobilized rapid support for people who lost their shelters or were displaced again due to attacks, house fires, and other incidents.
It added that in more than 12 reported incidents, people were displaced and lost their property as a result of occupation attacks, affecting about 290 families. Additionally, two families were affected by house fires, which are often linked to unsafe cooking inside shelters in the absence of proper power sources.
It further noted that five other families were affected by the placement of new yellow concrete blocks, a measure that often leads to the displacement of residents in Gaza, as it indicates the expansion of areas where the occupation enforces access restrictions.
