  "summary": "The Israeli security establishment reported a 63% increase in nationalist crime in the West Bank during the first half of 2026, with 660 incidents recorded compared to 405 in the same period the previous year. The rise in violence was marked by a 50% increase in attacks against security forces and 140 Palestinian casualties, including six deaths, compared to the previous six months. The data, released amid growing concern, also revealed a surge in July, with additional incidents reported, prompting the IDF to increase its deployment to 26 battalions.",
