3 Palestinians Killed, Scores Injured and Abducted, in Continued Israeli Attacks to Subjugate the Palestinian People

May 21, 2022 

Editor's Note:

While brutal force has been used to create Zionist Israel and sustain it thus far, Zionist claims to Palestine are false. Actually, from the five thousand years of known written history, there has been a continuous Palestinian-Canaanite presence in the Holy Land. Despite the Zionist false claims, the ancient Israelites ruled part of the land for only 85 years (during the reign of David, Solomon, and Solomon's son).

 After that, the Egyptians conquered Palestine-Canaan in 925 BC, followed by Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans, before the Arab Muslim rule, starting from 636 AD.

By the Time Jesus started his mission, the three population groups of Canaanites, Palestinians, and Israelites were melted together in religion and language. Most of them became Christians when Constantine converted in 313 AD. Then, most of them became Muslims in the 7th and 8th centuries AD.

So, Palestinian Muslims, Christians, and Jews are the ones who have the right to claim descent from ancient Israelites, Palestinians, and Canaanites, not Zionists from other continents.

The following news stories are just examples of the Israeli occupation government abuse, mistreatment, and violations of Palestinian human rights, on daily basis.

Palestinian Dies From Serious Wounds He Suffered In Jenin 

 IMEMC, MAY 15, 2022

A seriously wounded Palestinian man died Sunday at an Israeli medical center from gunshot wounds he suffered after Israeli occupation soldiers shot him two days ago during an invasion of the Jenin refugee camp in the northern part of the occupied West Bank.

The Palestinian, Daoud Mohammad Zobeidi, 40, was shot with a live round in the abdomen before Palestinian medics provided him with the needed first aid and rushed him to Ibn Sian hospital in Jenin.

He was later transferred to Rambam Israeli medical center in Haifa due to the seriousness of his condition, and Israelis immediately said he was now considered to be under arrest and would be interrogated if he survived his wounds.

On Saturday, Israel officially informed the family that Daoud was in a life-threatening condition due to gunshot wounds to the abdomen.

Daoud was seriously injured Friday and was among twelve other Palestinians wounded during the Israeli refugee camp invasion, especially during protests and exchanges of fire that took place after the soldiers detonated one home.

Following his injury, his family said Daoud underwent two surgeries at Rambam hospital and then was placed in the Intensive Care Unit hooked to reparatory machines.

Doctors at the Israeli Hospital said they would know more about his condition after observing him in the ICU for 48 hours; however, he succumbed to his wounds.

Daoud, a former political prisoner, is the brother of Zakariyya, one of six detainees who escaped from the heavily fortified Gilboa prison and were captured a week later.

Dozens of Israeli fanatics, led by Member of Knesset Itamar Bin-Gvir, went to the Israeli medical center and held a protest demanding the Israeli authorities to refrain from providing Daoud any medical center “at Israels’ expense.”

It is worth mentioning that Daoud’s mother, and his brother Taha, were killed on April 6, 2002, by Israeli soldiers during the Israeli military offensive in the Jenin refugee camp.

Daoud was shot with a live round in the abdomen; after being transferred to the Israeli Hospital, the Israeli army declared that he was now considered under arrest and would be taken for interrogation if he survived his wounds.

Palestinian sources said an Israeli army sharpshooter shot Daoud after the soldiers surrounded a home in the al-Hadaf area in the refugee camp.

His family said Daoud underwent two surgeries at Rambam hospital and then was placed in the Intensive Care Unit hooked to reparatory machines.

Doctors at the Israeli Hospital said they would know more about his condition after observing him in the ICU for 48 hours.

Dozens of Israeli fanatics, led by Member of Knesset Itamar Bin-Gvir, went to the Israeli medical center and held a protest demanding the Israeli authorities to refrain from providing Daoud any medical center “at Israels’ expense.”

Seriously Injured Palestinian Dies From His Wounds

 IMEMC, MAY 14, 2022

On Saturday morning, medical sources reported that a young Palestinian man who was shot and seriously injured on April 22nd after Israeli occupation soldiers stormed the courtyard of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem died from his wounds.

The Palestinian, Walid Sharif, was seriously injured when the soldiers invaded Al-Aqsa on the third Friday of the holy Muslim month of Ramadan and assaulted hundreds of worshipers.

Walid, from Beit Hanina north of Jerusalem, suffered a profoundly serious head injury near the al-Magharba Gate before the soldiers abducted and assaulted him.

The soldiers dragged the wounded Palestinian out of the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque. Then, they assaulted him despite his serious wounds before taking him to Hadassah Medical Center. Still, the army and the police were deployed there in the dozens and prevented the family from seeing him for several hours.

His brother Abdul-Rahman, a medic in Al-Aqsa, said Walid suffered a skull fracture and Hemorrhage in the brain after the soldiers shot him with a rubber-coated steel bullet in the head from a very close range.

He added that his brother remained in a coma after his brain was deprived of oxygen for at least twenty minutes.

Walid also suffered a skull fracture and brain hemorrhage.

At the time, the doctors at the Hadassah Israeli Medical Center in occupied Jerusalem said there is nothing more they can do for the young man and that he is in a coma in the intensive care unit.

Although Walid was shot in the afternoon, the family could not see him until the early night hours.

During the Israeli assault on the worshipers, the army injured 152 Palestinians, including many women and children, especially after the army used drones to fire gas bombs at the worshipers in the Al-Aqsa compound.

The Israeli army also abducted and detained more than five hundred Palestinians from the courtyard of Al-Aqsa.

Israeli Occupation Soldier Killed, 11 Palestinians Wounded Near Jenin

 IMEMC, MAY 14, 2022

A 47-year-old Israeli occupation soldier, identified as Noam Raz, was shot and killed by Palestinian fighters Friday when the troops invaded the village of Burqin and Jenin refugee camp, in the Jenin District, in the northern West Bank.

Raz died on the same day that a young Palestinian who was wounded by Israeli occupation soldiers last month while praying during the Holy Month of Ramadan died of his wounds, and just two days after a world-famous Palestinian journalist, Shireen Abu Akleh, was shot execution-style by Israeli soldiers while standing with other journalists in front of a stone wall in Jenin.

Shireen was shot with a live round in the head while wearing her press vest and helmet when an Israeli army sharpshooter fired one round at her.

The Ministry added that the soldiers first shot journalist Ali Sammoudi with a live round in the back, just as the journalists from various media agencies gathered in an open area in a clear line of sight from Israeli soldiers when the army committed its heinous crime.

Sammoudi, who was shot in the back, said that he, Shireen, and several other journalists gathered near a UNRWA-run school near Jenin refugee camp and were all wearing press vests and helmets before the soldiers shot him in the back and then shot Shireen with a live round in the head.

Raz was part of a squadron of troops that attacked the family home of Mohammad al-Dab’i in the village of Burqin in a pre-dawn raid.

The soldiers besieged the home for hours, while Palestinian resistance fighters gathered inside to try to protect the home. Some of those inside the home eventually came outside with their hands raised and were taken by the soldiers, but Israeli forces continued the siege and began to open fire on those that remained inside, wounding eleven.

During the invasion of the Palestinian village, the invading Israeli soldiers came under fire from Palestinian resistance fighters, one of whom apparently fired a bullet that hit Raz. Israeli soldiers shot 11 Palestinians during their assault on the village.

One of the Palestinians who was shot and injured was identified as Daoud Zubeidi, brother of the famous Palestinian prisoner Zakaria Zubeidi, who was one of six prisoners who managed to escape from a high-security Israeli prison last year by digging a tunnel with spoons.

The high-profile prison escape was a source of embarrassment for the Israeli government, which prides itself on its security measures — arms and security equipment are Israel’s biggest export.

After he was shot, Raz was taken to the Rambam Hospital in Haifa with critical gunshot wounds, and later died of his wounds.

Also on Friday, Israeli troops shot a Palestinian who allegedly threw a rock at a passing Israeli vehicle.
