Death toll from Israeli occupation forces, colonists’ attacks in West Bank rises to 100 since start of year

 

RAMALLAH, September 8, 2026 (WAFA) – The Ministry of Health reported that the death toll of Palestinians killed in the occupied West Bank as a result of Israeli occupation forces’ aggression and attacks by colonists since the beginning of this year has risen to 100.

In a brief statement issued Tuesday, the ministry said that four Palestinians were killed over the past 24 hours in the governorates of Nablus, Qalqilya, and Tulkarm.

In Nablus governorate, Mahmoud Mohammad Arabi Mohsen, 34, from the town of Qabalan, was killed after succumbing to wounds sustained from Israeli forces’ gunfire. His body remained in the custody of the occupation forces as of the publication of this report.

Abdel Karim Mohammad Khader Suleiman was also killed in the town of Aqraba after Israeli forces surrounded a house where he had taken refuge for about five hours and fired live ammunition and shoulder-fired projectiles at it.

In Qalqilya governorate, Omar Al-Toubasi was killed after succumbing to a gunshot wound to the head sustained during an attack by colonists on the village of Hajja. Three other Palestinians, including a child, were injured in two separate attacks carried out by armed colonists.

In Tulkarm governorate, Civil Defense crews recovered the body of Asaad Mleiha, a Palestinian from the Gaza Strip and one of the workers residing at the Zakat Committee branch in Tulkarm city that was raided by Israeli forces.

The death toll in the occupied West Bank has thus risen to 100 since the beginning of 2026, amid continued daily raids by Israeli forces into Palestinian cities, towns, and refugee camps, and an escalation in attacks by armed colonists on villages and towns, alongside the ongoing aggression against the Gaza Strip.
