Israel’s forcible displacement of Palestinians in the West Bank is rising, the UN warns, with 14 more families ordered to leave Tulkarem city while tens of thousands are being prevented by the military from returning to their homes in the Jenin and Tulkarem refugee camps, Al Jazeera reports.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) also reports in its latest situation update that Israeli settler violence and home demolitions displaced seven families in Ramallah.

A Palestinian man suffered a fatal heart attack triggered by tear gas deployed by Israeli troops during an attack by settlers on a Palestinian village earlier this week that was aided by the Israeli soldiers.

In another settler attack, six Palestinians were injured include one who was shot and later had to have their leg amputated.

Between April 15 and 21, six Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces, including one child, in the occupied West Bank. Over the same period, two Palestinians died in Israeli custody in what the UN called “unclear circumstances”.
