Palestinian children bearing brunt of West Bank conflict, UK tells UN

The United Kingdom has highlighted the severe impact of violence in the West Bank on Palestinian children, who are particularly affected by repeated violence, displacement, and educational disruption. In July alone, 13 Palestinians and two Israelis were killed, and Israeli forces demolished three classrooms at a school. The UK urges Israel to protect the Palestinian population and condemns recent attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinian villages, alongside Israeli Defense Force personnel.

The UK also calls for an end to restrictions on humanitarian aid in Gaza and for Israel to comply with UN Security Council Resolution 2803. The UK emphasizes that settlements are illegal under international law and are hindering a two-state solution.
