Previous reports from July 22, 2025, indicated that over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed while trying to access food in Gaza since the end of May, according to the United Nations. On July 21, 2025, at least 85 people were reported dead after Israeli troops opened fire on crowds waiting for aid, making it one of the deadliest days for aid seekers in over 21 months of conflict. Gaza's Health Ministry reported over 50,944 confirmed deaths and 116,156 wounded in Israel's war on Gaza as of April 13, 2025.
Concurrently, tensions remain high in the West Bank. A Palestinian was injured by occupation forces' gunfire in the Bab al-Zawiya area in the center of Hebron. This incident adds to a grim tally of casualties in the occupied territory.
Violence in the occupied West Bank has dramatically escalated since the start of the war on Gaza.

Another report from July 25, 2025, stated that over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed and nearly 7,000 injured in the West Bank since October 7, 2023. These figures highlight the persistent and widespread nature of the conflict across both Gaza and the West Bank, contributing to a severe and ongoing humanitarian crisis.
