against Israelis, particularly in the occupied West Bank, have surged
dramatically since the start of the year, Hebrew media reported on 16
August.

According to Israeli news outlet Channel 12, hundreds of operations have
been carried out since the start of 2024. Despite most of them being in the
West Bank, the operations have targeted “every point in Israel.”

Israel’s Channel 10 correspondent Noam Cohen also noted a surge in
resistance operations across Israel and the occupied West Bank over the
past 10 months.

Between 7 October and the current month, 338 resistance operations were
carried out against Israelis, Cohen said, adding that this marks an 82
percent surge compared to 2022 and around a nine percent jump since last
year.

Commenting on the increase in the average number of operations per month,
Cohen said the average was five in 2020, 10 in 2021, and 17 in 2022. Since
7 October, it has become an average of 31 per month, the correspondent
added.

The majority of the over 300 operations since October have been in the West
Bank. Ten were in occupied Jerusalem and 28 took place in the territories
occupied in 1948.

The operations have killed 28 settlers and wounded over 250.

Two Israelis were killed in a stabbing operation

An Israeli prison guard was found dead
<https://thecradle.co/articles-id/25864>in his home in the occupied West
Bank in early July. It was discovered later that month that he was killed
by a member of Hamas’ Qassam Brigades, Ibrahim Mansour, who was detained
<https://t.me/thecradlemedia/18061> by Israeli forces on 22 July.

One soldier was killed and others injured in a stabbing operation in
the Karmiel
settlement <https://t.me/thecradlemedia/17400>on 3 July. These are just a
few examples.

The surge in operations comes as there has also been a massive spike in
settler violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank since 7
October.

Around 100 armed Israeli settlers invaded

the Palestinian town of Jit in the occupied West Bank on 15 August, firing
bullets at residents and setting homes, cars, and other property on fire.

Settlers killed 23-year-old Rashid Sedda during the pogrom.
