History

Historical Context

The 2005 Gaza disengagement removed about 8,000 Israeli settlers from 21 settlements, yet the UN and the 2024 International Court of Justice still deem Gaza occupied. Between 2023-2026 Human Rights Watch documented 107 Palestinian communities displaced, a pattern echoed on 21 August 2026 when settlers killed Karim Shalaldeh, prompting Turkey’s justice minister to warn Prime Minister Netanyahu.
