United Nations Report Documents Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza and West Bank

A new report by the United Nations Human Rights Office has documented widespread human rights abuses in Israel’s military campaign and blockade of Gaza. The report, released on Thursday, covers the period from November 1, 2024 to October 31, 2025.

According to the report, there have been intensified attacks and methodical destruction of entire neighborhoods in Gaza, which appear to aim at a permanent demographic shift in the enclave. The report also highlights widespread arbitrary detention and extensive unlawful demolition of Palestinian homes in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem.

In Gaza, the report condemns the killing and maiming of unprecedented numbers of civilians, as well as the spread of famine and destruction of civilian infrastructure. At least 463 Palestinians, including 157 children, have starved to death during the 12-month period.

The report states that Palestinians faced an inhumane choice between starving to death or risking being killed while trying to access food. The findings directly attribute the famine and deaths to actions taken by the Israeli government.

Israeli forces have launched new air strikes and artillery attacks across Gaza, causing casualties and destruction. Medical officials at Nasser Medical Complex confirmed two Palestinian deaths due to Israeli fire near Khan Younis.

The report also notes that Israel’s repeated breaches of the ceasefire have resulted in 603 Palestinian deaths and 1,618 injuries as of Monday. In the occupied West Bank, violence has intensified, with settlers opening fire on Palestinian farmers, killing one person and wounding three others.

In Jerusalem, Ramadan has brought further restrictions at Al-Aqsa Mosque, where the imam reported increased security measures.
