Event Summary

Canada issued a statement on July 29, 2026, condemning ongoing violence by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank and demanding a halt to Israeli settlement expansion, which it called illegal under international law. The statement came amid intensified Israeli military operations and settler attacks since the Gaza war began in October 2023. According to Palestinian figures, over 1,180 Palestinians have been killed and thousands injured or arrested in the West Bank since then. UN figures indicate 18 Palestinians have been killed in settler-related incidents in 2026, surpassing the 17 killed in all of 2025. Canada urged de-escalation and protection of civilians.
