The Israeli military says it is reviewing the killing of a 16-year-old Palestinian during a raid amid a surge in West Bank violence where 53 minors have died this year.
- On Dec 22, Reuters reported that 16-year-old Rayan Muhammad Abdul Qader Abu Mualla was shot and killed in Qabatiya, occupied West Bank, during an Israeli military raid.

- United Nations and local tallies indicate violence in the occupied West Bank has surged since October 2023, with over 1,000 Palestinians killed and 53 minors dead, the Palestinian health ministry said.
