The West Bank Is Being Reshaped Along With Gaza Post-Oct. 7
Tensions are rising with the UN saying in excess of 200 Palestinians have been killed and many more displaced in the territory since the Hamas attack on Israel.
In the weeks since Oct. 7, Issa Amro has watched as Israeli settlers have entered his community, shot at nearby families and damaged property. He’s erected a fence and barricaded his windows with bricks after men in military uniform broke into his home earlier this month.
“I’m living in a cage now from all directions,” said Amro, a Palestinian activist who advocates the use of nonviolent resistance living in Hebron, a city located in occupied territory of the West Bank. “It’s intimidation day and night.”
