This is a list of individual incidents and statistical breakdowns of incidents of violence, including property damage and expropriation, taking place between Israel and Palestinians in 2014 as part of the ongoing Israeli–Palestinian conflict, but exclusive of particular events that fall within the parameters of any full outbreak of war hostilities.

January

  • 1 January, 2015. Israeli forces at a checkpoint opened fire on, and critically wounded, a Palestinian youth as he was about to cross the road near the Burin intersection south of Nablus in the northern West Bank.
  • On 3 January, Jamal Numan, a fisherman from al-Shati refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, was critically wounded when an Israeli warship machine-gunned his fishing boat off Rafah. The vessel was destroyed. Israeli sources claimed it was close to the Egyptian border and engaged in smuggling. Poverty among Gaza's fishermen has increased 40% since 2008, when Israel placed strict limits to the waters where they may fish.
Three Palestinian shepherds, Falah Youssef Bani Jaber, Ahmad Bani Jaber, and Judeh Bani Jaber of Yanun suffered wounds, respectively to hands and stomach when they were attacked by settlers and then fired on by Israeli forces near the Israeli outpost of Gidonim, an extension of the Itamar settlement. They Palestinians claimed they were seeking restitution of their stolen herds. Israeli sources claim they had fired in the air to quell a riot, and that the herds were later found, and had not been stolen.
  • 4 January Haytham Ziad Hijazi al-Rajabi (18) of Hebron was shot in the foot during clashes with Israeli forces at the Jabal Juhur neighborhood by a security guard from the Israeli settlement of Kiryat Arba.
  • 5 January, Israeli authorities bulldozed several shops in the village of Husan in the West Bank, near Bethlehem, on the grounds they had not given permits for their construction.
The house, under construction, of Abd al-Rahim al-Jaabari in the Ein Bani Sleim area of eastern Hebron was razed to the ground by Israeli forces on the grounds that the structure was being erected without Israeli permission.
