Between November 25 and December 1, four Palestinians, including a child, were killed by Israeli forces, bringing the Total number of Palestinians killed in West Bank since start of year rises to 227.
Nearly half of all deaths in 2025 were recorded in Jenin and Nablus governorates.
Large-scale operations in Jenin and Tubas governorates alone have affected more than 95,000 Palestinians in the past week.
In Tubas, large-scale raids, curfews and bulldozing activities caused extensive damage to homes, roads and water networks, displacing families and cutting off water supplies to almost 17,000 people.
Settler violence also remained at high levels. So far this year, OCHA documented 1,680 settler attacks in more than 270 communities – an average of five per day – with the current olive harvest season marked by widespread attacks on farmers, trees and agricultural infrastructure.
Situation in Gaza
In Gaza, daily airstrikes, bombings and detonations of buildings continue. reported near the so-called “Yellow Line,” which runs through more than half of the territory where Israeli forces remain deployed.
Line changes last week triggered new displacements from eastern Gaza City, as winter rains worsened already dire living conditions.
Since the ceasefire came into force in October, more than 774,000 displacement movements have been recorded. In the last week alone, more than 20,500 movements were recorded, largely due to flooding and insecurity.
Humanitarians warn that winter conditions, overcrowding and repeated displacement increase risks for children, the elderly, people with disabilities and female-headed households.
Food and health services
The health system in Gaza remains on the verge of collapse. Although 42 health facilities have reopened or partially resumed services since the ceasefire, 61 percent of all health service points remain non-functional, putting enormous pressure on what remains of the system.
According to the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO), more than 16,500 patients – including around 4,000 children – still require medical evacuation because the advanced care they need is not available in Gaza.
Food security and nutrition remain crucial.
The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) reported that two-thirds of children under five consumed only two or fewer food groups in October, exposing the entire population under the age of five to the risk of acute malnutrition.
While food aid has expanded in recent weeks, shortages of fuel, cooking gas and cash continue to limit access to diverse diets.
The scale of the physical destruction is immense. More than 80 percent of buildings in Gaza damaged or destroyedand UN estimates indicate that debris clearance alone could take at least seven years, even with stable access and sufficient funding.
Funding and relief supplies
Despite the scale of the needs, humanitarian funding remains severely limited. As of December 4, only 40% of the $4 billion required for the Gaza and West Bank response by 2025 had been received.
The UN also continues to coordinate humanitarian missions in Gaza.
Wednesday, six out of seven of these attempts were facilitated by Israeli authoritiesenabling humanitarian teams to collect fuel, medical supplies, diapers, dignity and hygiene kits, soap, winter clothing and other essential items at the Kerem Shalom and Zikim crossing points.
