A dozen settler outposts have been established within the same area over the past two years, with settler violence adding to pressures on this and other Palestinian communities to leave.<\/p>\n Humanitarian partners are now mobilizing response efforts in support of those newly displaced, while also supporting vulnerable communities \u2013 who are under pressure to leave across the West Bank \u2013 in sustaining their livelihoods.<\/p>\n In this context, FAO\u00a0reported<\/a>\u00a0today that herders in the West Bank have received 3.3 million vaccine doses from the agency and the Palestinian Ministry of Agriculture to safeguard livestock and their income over the past two years.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 2 September 2026 OCHA remains deeply concerned over the safety and welfare of civilians in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. ±¬ÁÏÍøICEF said in a\u00a0social media post\u00a0today that in Gaza, three boys and girls aged three to 13 had reportedly been killed in the preceding 24 hours, with at least five other children injured. ±¬ÁÏÍøICEF said […]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":299,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"country":[],"document-category":[2477],"document-source":[2169],"committee-meeting":[],"document-subject":[2005,1745,6251],"entity":[1729],"document-language":[6542],"class_list":["post-320069","document","type-document","status-publish","hentry","document-category-news-item","document-source-office-for-the-coordination-of-humanitarian-affairs-ocha","document-subject-gaza-strip","document-subject-refugees-and-displaced-persons","document-subject-west-bank","entity-united-nations-system","document-language-english"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document\/320069","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/document"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/299"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document\/320069\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":320092,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document\/320069\/revisions\/320092"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=320069"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=320069"},{"taxonomy":"document-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-category?post=320069"},{"taxonomy":"document-source","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-source?post=320069"},{"taxonomy":"committee-meeting","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/committee-meeting?post=320069"},{"taxonomy":"document-subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-subject?post=320069"},{"taxonomy":"entity","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/entity?post=320069"},{"taxonomy":"document-language","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.un.org\/unispal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/document-language?post=320069"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
