 The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) more than 12,000 Palestinian children are living in a state of “forced displacement” in the West Bank as a result of Israel’s ongoing military operation in the northern governorates. Since Jan. 21, 2025, the Israeli occupation army has been carrying out a military operation in the northern West Bank known as “Iron Wall,” which began in the Jenin refugee camp and later expanded to the Nur Shams and Tulkarm refugee camps. The UN agency stated via its account on X social media platform that “more than 12,000 children remain forcibly displaced in the occupied West Bank.” It added that in Feb. 2025, it launched an emergency education program for displaced children in the northern West Bank to ensure the continuity of their education through temporary learning spaces, online teaching, the distribution of self-learning materials, and psycho-social support. UNRWA noted that around 48,000 Palestinian children study in its schools in the West Bank. Since the outbreak of the war in the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, which lasted two years, the Israeli army and settlers have intensified their actions in the West Bank, including killing Palestinian civilians, demolishing homes and displacing their residents, and expanding settlement construction.
