West Bank settler attacks: October’s reported count and its final week

OCHA reported 397 settler attacks resulting in casualties or property damage from October 1–26, 2026, and 62 such attacks from October 20–26. The weekly count is within the monthly period; don’t add the two.

The first answer

Keep the attribution and dates beside each count: 397 reported incidents, October 1–26; 62 documented incidents, October 20–26.

Keep the monthly window attached

In its Humanitarian Situation Report dated 29 October 2026, OCHA said 397 incidents were reported between October 1 and 26. It described this as the highest monthly number of settler attacks resulting in casualties or property damage since documentation began in 2006.

Read the weekly figure as a narrower window

For October 20–26, OCHA documented 62 such attacks across 49 West Bank communities, including 38 related to the olive harvest. That week falls inside the October 1–26 count, so the figures describe overlapping periods, not separate totals.

What the figures establish

These are OCHA’s reported and documented incident counts for the stated periods. They do not provide a count of people killed or injured, and the monthly figure does not cover all of October.
