Amid escalating raids and statements by Israeli officials promising a massive military operation against refugee camps in the West Bank, Palestinians in Ramallah-area camps say it’s not a question of whether their turn will come, but when.

Israel dumps some of its most toxic waste on Palestinian land in the West Bank. In places like Hebron, families living near electronic waste dumps face serious health repercussions, with no relief in sight.

Hebron’s Palestinian municipality held planning authority over the city for nearly 30 years. Israel revoked it this month, then swiftly approved a yeshiva in the Old City — redrawing who controls the city’s land and future.
