More than 100 Palestinians have been killed across the occupied West Bank since October 7, according to the health ministry.

Since October 7, killings have surged in the West Bank, including east Jerusalem, with the death toll reaching 101 Palestinians, it said.

Three Palestinians were killed in Jenin and one in Qalqilya, both in the northern West Bank. One Palestinian was also killed in Qalandia, just north of Jerusalem. The health ministry said they were killed by Israeli “bullets and missiles”.
