The Guardian reports 235 Palestinian children have been killed by Israeli forces in the West Bank since October 7, 2023. A further 5 were killed by Israeli settlers. According to human rights group B'Tselem, Israel's system "effectively gives them a licence to kill." The military claims 96% of those killed were "involved in terrorism," but B'Tselem found no evidence that any of the 54 children killed in 2025 posed a threat or belonged to militant groups.
