In the seven-day period between June 17 and 23, the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) says it documented at least 23 attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians that resulted in casualties, property damage or both, Al Jazeera reports.

The attacks left one Palestinian man dead and 14 injured, OCHA said.

Arson, killing, and vandalism of sapling trees — mostly olive — were recorded during the attacks carried out on Palestinian communities across the occupied West Bank, the UN agency said.
