Timeline of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict in January–June 2015

This is a list of individual incidents and statistical breakdowns of incidents of violence, including property damage and expropriation, involving a violation of rights, taking place between Israel and Palestinians in 2015 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.

Housing demolitions are regarded by Israel as justified as a deterrent response to acts of terrorism or on the grounds that the houses in question in East Jerusalem, and the occupied West Bank were built without permits from the Israeli Military Authority governing the West Bank. The practice is condemned as discriminatory, a form of collective punishment, sometimes as a war crime in violation of international law, by the United Nations, many human rights organizations, the United Nations, and scholars such as Meron Benvenisti and Saree Makdisi. Israel has clashed with the EU's funding and construction of buildings for Palestinian residents in Area C, and ordered the demolition of 400 units saying that under international law, such structures do require Israeli permits.
