Israeli military operations in West Bank cause largest displacement since 1967

Israeli military operations in the West Bank have displaced about 40,000 Palestinians, the largest civilian displacement since 1967. This follows intensified actions against armed groups in northern areas. Displaced individuals are seeking shelter with relatives or in public buildings. The Israeli military claims these operations target terrorists planning attacks on civilians. The United Nations reports significant damage to water and sanitation facilities in four refugee camps. While some displaced people have returned home, most remain without shelter.
