19 Palestinians Killed, Including 8 in an Air Raid on Jenin, Scores Injured and Abducted, by Israeli Occupation Regime Forces

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, not a systematic record, of the Israeli occupation government abuse, mistreatment, and violations of Palestinian human rights, on daily basis.

Palestinian Killed After Reportedly Carrying Out Car Ramming And Stabbing In Tel Aviv

 JUL 4, 2023

According to Israeli sources, a Palestinian from the occupied West Bank reportedly rammed several Israelis with his car and stabbed one pedestrian before he was fatally shot dead by an Israeli civilian.

The sources said seven Israelis were injured in what they dubbed a car-ramming and a stabbing attack by the Palestinian on Pinchas Rosen Street in Tel Aviv before he was shot dead.

The Jerusalem Post said that, according to social media footage, the Palestinian was killed after he ran over several Israelis with a car and stepped out of the vehicle before stabbing one in the neck.

The Palestinian has been identified as Abdul-Wahab Khalayla, 23, from the As-Samoo’ town, south of Hebron, in the occupied West Bank’s southern part.

According to Israeli sources, he carried a medical permit to receive treatment at an Israeli hospital a few days earlier.

The Jerusalem Post said an Israeli civilian at the scene fatally shot the Palestinian before paramedics arrived and started treating the wounded Israelis.

The Israeli Ynet News said a security camera footage shows the car the Palestinian was driving crashing into a bus stop, striking several Israelis, before he climbed out of the car window and chased onlookers while carrying a knife.

The Ynet quoted the police stating that the car veered onto the bicycle land and the sidewalk before striking pedestrians.

A video from the scene shows the Israeli executing the Palestinian by shooting at least three times, within a few seconds between each shot, after he was already shot and lying on the street bleeding.

Israeli daily Haaretz said one of the wounded Israelis is a pregnant woman, 46 years of age, who suffered serious wounds, two Israelis in their thirties sustained moderate wounds, and two were mildly injured due to the impact with the vehicle.

Haaretz quoted Tel Aviv Police District Commander Ami Eshed stating that the incident was a deliberate attack and that the Palestinian appears to have acted alone, but the police are trying to find out if he was accompanied by anybody else.

Shortly afterwards, the police detained several Palestinians believed to be involved in the incident and said that Abdul-Wahab’s background and affiliations are currently under investigation.

On Tuesday dawn, Israeli soldiers killed a young Palestinian man, Odai Ibrahim Khamaisa, 22, in Jenin City, in the northern part of the occupied West Bank, bringing the number of slain Palestinians in Jenin to ten on the second day of the Israeli offensive.

He was the nineth Palestinian the soldiers kill in Jenin, after the army killed eight earlier Monday, in addition to wounding more than 100, twenty seriously.

The Palestinian Health Ministry identified the eight slain Palestinians as Samih Firas Abu Al-Wafa, 21, Aws Hani Hannoon, 19, Husam Muhammed Abu Theeba, 18, Nooruddeen Husam Marshood, 16, Muhammed Muhannad Shami, 23, Ahmed Muhammed Al-Amer, 21, Ali Hani Al-Ghool, 17, and Majdi Ar’arawi, 17.

The Israeli military spokesperson said Israel still has ten targets to achieve in its Jenin refugee camp offensive and said the soldiers have abducted about 120 young men.

In a press conference, the spokesperson said that the army estimated that there are 300 Palestinian fighters in Jenin and added that it has a list of names of about 160.

Hundreds of Palestinian families (approximately 3000 Palestinians) were displaced from their homes in the refugee camp and went to the nearby Jenin governmental hospital and mosques after the army ordered them to leave as it continues its offensive.

Israeli military bulldozers and missiles caused excessive damage to homes and buildings, and bulldozed streets, in addition to destroying cars, and blocking access to the refugee camp, and attacking ambulances, medics and journalists.

Israeli daily Haaretz said the Israeli army spokesperson Daniel Hagari confirmed that the soldiers invaded the Jenin refugee camp, however, Palestinian sources said all entrances to the refugee camp were blocked.

Haaretz stated that the Palestinians in Jenin received a message from the army, ordering them to remain in their homes, and added that “Hagari stressed that this is not an operation against the Palestinian Authority or the residents,” according to the Israeli report.

Hagari said the offensive in Jenin may continue and expand but is “currently limited to the Jenin area.” The Israeli army claimed it targeted a “unified command center” used as an “advanced observation and reconnaissance center,” by Palestinian resistance fighters in Jenin, Haaretz added.

Published on: Jul 3, 2023, at 06:19: Over 200 armored Israeli military vehicles, including bulldozers, invaded Jenin city from several directions and advanced to surround the Jenin refugee camp before the soldiers stormed and occupied many homes and buildings.

The Israeli army is still pushing more vehicles into the area, while many tanks have been seen near the Al-Jalama military roadblock north of Jenin in preparation for invading Jenin.

Palestinian resistance fighters from various factions exchanged fire with the invading soldiers and military vehicles and detonated explosive charges near the armored vehicles.

The Palestinian Health Ministry identified one of the slain Palestinians as Samih Firas Abu Al-Wafa, 21, and seriously injured at least one when the army fired a missile at a home in the center of the refugee camp.

The sources added that the missile caused massive damage and fire and stated that the soldiers refused to allow Palestinian medics to enter the area.

Medical sources in Jenin said the number of victims is likely higher, but the medics cannot enter invaded areas due to the ongoing offensive and closures.

So far, the confirmed number of injuries is 13 including three who suffered life-threatening wounds.

Most of the wounded are being treated by young men and women who have received first aid and emergency medical training over the past few months in preparation for the offensive, which Israel has been discussing for some time.

Palestine TV said the soldiers have also encircled its headquarters in Jenin and are using equipment to disrupt live coverage.

It added that the Israeli war jets and armed drones fired at least twenty missiles at several buildings in the Jenin refugee camp.

Furthermore, Palestinian resistance fighters in Jenin said they managed to destroy an armored Israeli military bulldozer after detonating an explosive charge near an Israeli military bulldozer.

The Israeli occupation army has confirmed it was conducting an extensive military offensive throughout Jenin refugee and the Jenin refugee camp and added that one of its airstrikes targeted a building allegedly used by Palestinian fighters where they gather, and store weapons and ammunition, according to the statement issued by the army and the Israeli Security Agency “Shin Bet.”

The army said more than 1000 soldiers and at least a hundred military vehicles are participating in the offensive.

The number of victims in the ongoing Israeli offensive in Jenin is likely higher than what is being reported, especially since the army is imposing a tight siege on the invaded areas, denying the entry of ambulances and media outlets, in addition to causing power outages and disrupting internet and cellphone coverage.

Various Palestinian factions, including the Islamic Jihad, said the offensive would fail in achieving its goals and would only intensify the resistance against the Israeli occupation and more steadfastness and unity among the Palestinians.

The Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Islamic Jihad, said Palestinian resistance fighters would never surrender, Jenin would never surrender and added that Israel would fail in achieving its goals and bear the consequences of its offensive.

“All options are open to striking the enemy; we will retaliate to this aggression and continue to resist the occupation,” the Al-Quds Brigades stated.

Four Israelis, Two Palestinians Killed Near Eli Colony in West Bank

 JUN 21, 2023

On the same day that Israeli occupation troops killed four Palestinians in the northern West Bank, a shooting attack at a gas station resulted in the deaths of four Israelis and the wounding of four others. One of the Palestinians was shot and killed at the shooting scene, and the other was killed two hours later by Israeli occupation soldiers.

The Israelis who were killed in the attack were identified as Elisha Antman, 18, from Eli colony; Harel Masoud, 21, from Yad Binyamin; Nachman Shmuel Mordoff, 17, from Ahiya, and Ofer Feierman, 63, from Eli colony.

Of the wounded, one was listed as seriously wounded, while three were wounded lightly.

The shooters were identified as Muhannad Falih Shahada, 26, who was killed on site by an Israeli paramilitary colonial settler, and Khalid Mustafa Sabah, 24, who managed to escape from the scene of the shooting but was pursued by Israeli soldiers who killed him and wounded another Palestinian civilian.

According to eyewitnesses, the two Palestinians drove up to the gas station, entered a restaurant attached to the gas station, and shot at the Israelis who were dining there, killing four people and wounding four.

Israeli media reported that the two Palestinian shooters had been imprisoned together at the Israeli prison of Megiddo two and a half years ago.

A paramilitary Israeli colonizer at the gas station fatally wounded Shahada while Sabah managed to escape in a car, but the soldiers found and killed him and moderately injured another Palestinian.

After the attack,  Islamic Resistance Movement – Hamas, praised the shooting, saying the shooting was “a response to Israel’s crimes carried out at the Jenin refugee camp and the aggression against the Al-Aqsa Mosque. The struggle won’t stop until our people are free and independent.”

The Israeli army later invaded Orif town, south of Nablus, before storming the family homes of the two Palestinians and took measurements of the properties to prepare for demolishing them as part of Israel’s collective punishment policies, illegal under International Law and all related human rights treaties, including the Fourth Geneva Convention.

Israeli daily Haaretz said that while this attack could lead to accelerated operations to prepare for a large-scale military offensive in the West Bank, such an offensive would occur due to political leadership pressure.

Haaretz said the offensive, which would be dubbed Guardian of the Walls II, which refers to the original operation in 2021, could be different than what its name suggests but likely a limited offensive that would last for a few days “to calm things on the ground,” and to appease demands from the Israeli right-wing.
