بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

"مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَٰلِكَ كَتَبْنَا عَلَىٰ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَ نَفْسًا بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسَادٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا"  (الْمَائِدَةُ ، 5: 32).

"وَمَنْ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُّتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا" (النِّسَاءُ ، 4: 93).

"إِنْ أَحْسَنتُمْ أَحْسَنتُمْ لِأَنفُسِكُمْ ۖ وَإِنْ أَسَأْتُمْ فَلَهَا ۚ فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ الْآخِرَةِ لِيَسُوءُوا وُجُوهَكُمْ وَلِيَدْخُلُوا الْمَسْجِدَ كَمَا دَخَلُوهُ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَلِيُتَبِّرُوا مَا عَلَوْا تَتْبِيراً ‎(الإسْرَاءُ ، 17: 7). 

In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

"Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul, unless for a soul, or for corruption in the land, it is as if he had killed humankind entirely" (The Holy Quran, Al-Ma-ida, 5: 32).

"And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, wherein he will abide eternally, and Allah has become angry with him, and has cursed him, and has prepared for him a great torment" (Al-Nisa, 4: 93).

"If you do good, you do good for yourselves; and if you do evil, (you do it) to yourselves. Then, when the latter (final) promise came, they (your enemies) will sadden your faces, and to enter the Masjid (in Jerusalem), as they entered it the first time, and will destroy what they had taken over with (total) destruction (Al-Isra, 17: 7).

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 human 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 Prophets David and Solomon , peace be upon them, 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, peace be upon him, 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.

No matter what the Zionists and their supporters do, they cannot change the will of God, Who promised the Holy Land to Abraham and his descendants, basically the Palestinian Muslims and Christians.

No matter how much persecution and aggression the Zionists and their supporters inflict upon the Palestinian people, they will never be able to force them out of the Holy Land, which Allah, praise to Him, promised for them, and kept His promise ever since.

This is a necessary brief background to understand the US-Backed Zionist Israeli continuous wars against the Arab nation generally, and the Palestinian people in particular, which included the wars of 1948, 1956, 1967, 1978, 1982, the brutal crushing of the two Uprisings (1987-1993 and 2000-2004), 2009, 2012, 2014, 2021, and the current genocidal war on Gaza (Since October 7, 2023), which has culminated a blockade of Gaza since 2007. In addition, the Israeli occupation and apartheid regime launched so many covert operations, raids, and air strikes on many Arab states since 1948.

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.

IOF destroys 3,250 housing units in Jineen refugee camp

Saturday 29-March-2025

Jineen, (PIC)

The media committee in Jineen refugee camp reported that 3,250 housing units have become uninhabitable due to the ongoing aggression of the Israeli occupation forces (IOFs) for the 68th consecutive day Saturday, while the number of displaced persons from the camp has reached 21,000.

The Jineen municipality said that the camp has become completely uninhabitable due to the continued aggression, which includes the demolition and burning of homes, as well as converting others into military barracks.

The Jineen municipality added that the IOFs continues to impose a severe blockade on the Jenin governorate, which is home to 360,000 residents. The municipality noted that the IOFs have destroyed about 600 homes and the entire infrastructure in the camp.

The IOFs sent military reinforcements along with bulldozers to the Jineen refugee camp, where demolition operations, street expansions, and the opening of new roads are ongoing. The army continues to fire live ammunition around the camp amidst movements of infantry units inside it and intensive drone flights.

The number of displaced persons from the camp has reached 21,000, who are distributed between the city of Jineen and surrounding villages.

In the meantime, the Hebrew website Walla reported that the IOFs is increasing the level of engineering operations, referring to demolition and clearing operations in the camps of northern West Bank.

The site quoted the commander of the central region in the occupation army as saying that the Israeli government has decided to dismantle the camps, considering them a “fortress” for Palestinian resistance, and to convert them into residential neighborhoods belonging to the cities of Jenin and Toulkarm.

Israel continues its military aggression against the governorates of Jineen and Toulkarm (north) since January 21, which has included systematic kidnapping operations and field investigations targeting dozens of families, in addition to converting homes into military barracks.

IOFs continue its aggression on Toulkarm amid deployment of military reinforcements

Saturday 29-March-2025

Toulkarm, (PIC)

The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) continue their military aggression on the Toulkarm and Nur Shams refugee camps on Saturday amidst a complete siege, deploying more vehicles and infantry units into the alleys and streets, accompanied by extensive search operations.

On the 49th day of the siege of Nour Shams camp, the IOFs sent new military reinforcements including heavy machinery and bulldozers, while a continuous military campaign and a suffocating blockade are ongoing. IOFs soldiers fired flares in the Al-Mahjar neighborhood and spread around Mount Al-Salihin inside the camp, amidst extensive search operations.

Meanwhile, the Toulkarm refugee camp has been experiencing wide military deployment for the 62nd day in its alleys and streets, where IOFs continue to raid homes after breaking down doors and vandalizing their contents. This coincides with the continued displacement of residents from the Al-Hadaida and Al-Rabai’a neighborhoods after being forced out of their homes by the IOFs under threat, and the seizure of dozens of homes, converting them into military barracks.

In a related context, the occupation forces intensified their military presence throughout the city of Toulkarm, setting up temporary military checkpoints at its entrances, especially at the Firoun roundabout to the south, the Al-Salam roundabout to the east, and on Nablus Street opposite Tulkarem camp, in addition to the Dthannaba neighborhood near the Attar platforms.

Eyewitnesses reported that the IOFs stopped passing vehicles, checked the identities of passengers, and subjected many of them to field interrogation and humiliation, causing delays in citizens’ movement and hindering their access to their destinations.

The IOFs also kidnapped two young men, Maysara Majali and Asid Abu Mahrouq, from the Dhannaba neighborhood east of Tulkarem, before releasing them later.

In another development, the occupation authorities informed the family of the young man Anas Ayman Al-Turabi from the southern neighborhood of Tulkarem that he is detained, after losing contact with him for two days, amid concerns for his fate.

The continuous aggression on the city and its camps has resulted in the martyrdom of 13 citizens, including a child and two women, one of whom was eight months pregnant, in addition to the injury and arrest of dozens, and the forced displacement of more than 4,000 families from the Toulkarm and Nur Shams camps, along with dozens of families from the northern neighborhood of the city after their homes were seized and several of them converted into military barracks.

The IOFs aggression on Toulkarm has caused extensive damage to infrastructure, homes, commercial establishments, and vehicles, which have been subjected to complete or partial demolition, burning, vandalism, and looting. Since the beginning of the aggression, the occupation army has completely destroyed 396 homes and partially destroyed 2,573 in the Tulkarem and Nur Shams camps, in addition to closing their entrances and alleys with earthen barriers.

===============================================================================================================================

Editorial Notes about terms & names of people and places:

1. Names of people and places have been standardized to match standard Arabic grammatical rules.

2. Underlined letters and letters preceded by an apostrophe are references to Arabic letter sounds, which does not exist in the English alphabet.

3. The English letter i is equivalent to the Arabic short vowel known as kasra, as in Ibraheem and Qasim as well as in the English words sit and bit. So, it is incorrect to use it as a long vowel for such Arabic names as Jameel and Jibreel.

4. The English letter e is equivalent to the Arabi short vowel known as fat'ha, as in A'hmed and Mu'hammed.

5. It is more accurate to refer to the land-grabbing Israelis, who establish illegal settlements in the Palestinian territory of the West Bank, as illegal Israeli settlers, than referring to them as colonists.

The term colony is a reference to a large entity or a country, such as American states before independence. It was also a reference to Egypt, and India, when they were British colonies.

In addition, the term "colony" represents a positive nostalgic theme, in the minds of native speakers of English, particularly in America and Britain.

6. It is more accurate to use the verbs "abduct" and "kidnap" than the verbs "detain" and "arrest," in reference to taking Palestinian citizens by force to prisons and interrogation centers, by Israeli occupation regime soldiers. This is because the presence of the Israeli occupation regime forces is illegal in the Palestinian territories, and they have no jurisdiction over the Palestinian people.
