Since October 7, 2023, and extending through June 2026, Israeli forces have killed 235 Palestinian children and teenagers in the West Bank, according to a report by the Israeli rights group B'Tselem. The surge in fatalities highlights the severe impact of ongoing military actions and violence in the region on minors.
Among the families affected is that of Alia al-Hallaq, a Palestinian homemaker whose nine-year-old son, Mohammed, was killed by an Israeli army bullet last October. She continues to struggle with the psychological and emotional reality of her loss, still viewing herself as a mother of five children rather than four as she navigates the grief in her home.
