"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).

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.

Gaza: Hospitals receive 47 martyrs, death toll climbs to 64,803 martyrs

Saturday 13-September-2025

GAZA, (PIC, WAFA) --

During the past 24 hours, hospitals in the Gaza Strip received the bodies of at least 47 civilians, as well as 205 people suffering from different injuries following Israeli attacks, according to Gaza’s health ministry on Saturday morning.

Accordingly, a total of 12,253 people have been killed and 52,223 others have been injured since the Israeli occupation army resumed its genocidal war on Gaza on March 18, 2025.

The new fatalities increased the death toll from the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza, which started on October 7, 2023, to 64,803 martyrs, including 2,484 aid seekers, the health ministry said.

The ministry added that the total number of the wounded also surged to 164,264 people, including 18,117 aid seekers.

The ministry also said that Gaza’s hospitals recorded seven new fatalities in the past 24 hours due to starvation and malnutrition, bringing the death toll from the famine to 420 victims, including 145 children.

Emergency services are still unable to reach many casualties and dead bodies trapped under the rubble or scattered on roads across the war-torn enclave, as Israeli occupation forces continue to target ambulance and civil defense crews, according to the health authorities.

The Israeli genocidal war on the Gaza Strip continues undeterred despite calls from the United Nations Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.

Israeli army continues to massacre civilians across Gaza

Saturday 13-September-2025

GAZA, (PIC)

The Israeli occupation army continued, last night and on Saturday, to carry out intensive deadly strikes and target civilians in different areas of the Gaza Strip.

According to local media sources, Israeli forces also continued today to detonate and bomb more homes and tents and displace families across the Gaza Strip, further deepening the dire humanitarian crisis as the population grapples with worsening famine.

According to the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) reporter in Gaza, Israeli attacks have continued across the Gaza Strip, including strikes on a house that killed three people and injured 27 others in Gaza City’s as-Sabra neighborhood.

The PIC reporter said that Israeli warplanes bombed and destroyed three schools used as shelters in Gaza City’s El-Shati refugee camp, without stating if there were casualties from the strikes.

The Israeli army also carried out intensive airstrikes on homes around Gaza City’s El-Yarmouk neighborhood, with no reported casualties.

Six people from the same family, including children and women, were massacred when a warplane bombed their house near the Abu 'Haleema gas station in El-Shati camp.

The Israeli army also launched attacks on other areas of the Gaza Strip last night and today, killing and wounding more civilians, including children and women.

Meanwhile, dozens of people were martyred or injured in Israeli attacks on aid seekers near distribution points in separate areas of Gaza.

Seven people were also proclaimed dead, including two children, due to starvation and malnutrition, while other Gazans were pronounced dead after they succumbed to injuries they sustained in recent attacks, according to Gaza’s health ministry today.

Gaza: Death toll from starvation climbs to 420, including 145 kids

Saturday 13-September-2025

GAZA, (PIC)

Seven Palestinian citizens, including two children, died of starvation and malnutrition in the Gaza Strip within the past 24 hours, according to a statement released by Gaza’s Health Ministry on Saturday morning.

The new victims have raised the total number of hunger-related deaths in the famished coastal territory to 420 people, including 145 children, the health ministry said.

According to the Ministry, 142 of the famine deaths, 30 of them children, occurred after the UN-backed hunger monitoring system Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) formally declared Gaza a famine zone last month.

Meanwhile, UNRWA has reiterated the urgent need for international action to end the war on the Gaza Strip and provide support for the agency.

“In Gaza, UNRWA staff continue to provide life-saving services, while aid supplies are still banned from entering by the Israeli authorities. Urgent international support is needed for UNRWA to deliver essential assistance to those in need,” UNRWA commissioner-general Philippe Lazzarini told Al-Mamlaka satellite channel on Friday.

“In Gaza, civilians are trapped with nowhere safe to go. Families continue to face extreme conditions and rising food insecurity,” UNRWA said on its X page.

“Urgent action is needed. Ceasefire, before it’s too late,” UNRWA added.

Since March 2, the Israeli occupation army has been closing all the border crossings with Gaza, preventing the flow of humanitarian aid and vital needs. Although limited quantities of aid have recently been allowed in, they remain insufficient to meet the minimum basic needs of the population.

Two Palestinians killed, others injured in Israeli strikes on homes and schools in Gaza

WAFA Archive

GAZA, September 13, 2025 (WAFA) –

Two Palestinians were killed and several others injured on Saturday after Israeli fighter jets bombed a home south of Gaza City and targeted shelters in Al-Shati refugee camp west of the city, as well as three UNRWA schools, medical sources reported.

Al-Shifa Hospital confirmed that two civilians were killed and others injured following the strike on a home south of Gaza City. Earlier, an Israeli drone targeted shelters housing displaced residents in Al-Shati refugee camp, injuring several people, who were subsequently transferred to Al-Shifa Hospital.

Israeli occupation forces also hit a home near Al-Sina'a Street, south of Gaza City, causing additional injuries. In addition, three UNRWA schools were targeted by Israeli airstrikes, displacing thousands of internally displaced Palestinians who had sought refuge there.

According to eyewitnesses, the schools were sheltering people who had fled northern and southern Gaza City but refused to leave the city. Israeli forces reportedly gave prior warnings via phone calls to evacuate the schools, but the time allowed was insufficient for residents to gather their essential belongings.

Earlier on Saturday, the Israeli occupation military dropped leaflets over wide areas of Gaza City instructing residents to evacuate to southern parts of the Strip, a directive largely rejected by civilians.

Gaza City, home to 1.3 million people, is witnessing a surge in internal displacement as Israeli attacks intensify, with most residents crowding into the western neighborhoods, which have been subjected to concentrated airstrikes for over two weeks.

WEST BANK, (PIC)

A Palestinian young man died Saturday evening from wounds he sustained the previous day when the Israeli occupation forces (IOFs) shot him near the entrance of Dair Jareer village, northeast of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.

According to medical sources, 21-year-old Mu'hammed 'Alawi died of serious bullet injuries after efforts to save his life at Palestine Hospital in Ramallah were unsuccessful.

Alawi was critically injured early Friday morning after Israeli soldiers fired live bullets at a group of local youths at the entrance of Dair Jareer village, particularly near the road leading to the nearby village of Silwad.

In a separate incident, a number of Palestinian citizens, including a woman, suffered injuries and two others were kidnapped on Saturday evening after a horde of the illegal extremist Israeli settlers escorted by Israeli occupation forces attacked the villages of Al-Rakeez and Al-Tuwanah in the Masafir Yatta area, south of Al-Khaleel (Hebron).

The Red Crescent said that its paramedics provided medical assistance for three wounded citizens after settlers beat them in Masafir Yatta.

Chief of the Tuwanah village council Mu'hammed Rab’iee said that settlers stormed the Sha’ab El-Tuwanah area and embarked on assaulting local residents and throwing stones at them.

Rab’iee added that several local residents suffered injuries and bruises, including a woman who was transferred by the Red Crescent to Yatta Hospital.

Local activist Osama Makhamra also reported a similar settler attack in Al-Rakeez village, affirming that some villagers suffered injuries, including 60-year-old Sa’eed Al-'Umour, who had previously suffered a leg injury and amputation after being shot by a settler.

According to Makhamra, the IOF declared the two villages a closed military zone and prevented a Red Crescent crew from transporting the wounded elderly man to the hospital.

WEST BANK, (PIC)

The Israeli occupation forces (IOFs) opened fire at a Palestinian elderly man and kidnaped two young men during raids in the West Bank on Saturday morning.

The Red Crescent said that its paramedics evacuated a 60-year-old man to the hospital after Israeli forces opened fire at him and injured him in his thigh in Toulkarm refugee camp.

The IOFs have displaced tens of thousands of Palestinians by destroying homes and civilian infrastructure in the West Bank refugee camps of Jineen, Toulkarm and Nour Shams rendering them uninhabitable, as part of a large-scale ethnic cleansing campaign targeting the Palestinian people.

For several months, the IOFs have been preventing displaced citizens from entering those camps under the pretext they are closed military zones.

In a separate incident, the IOFs kidnaped two young men following dawn raids on homes in Baitounya town, west of Ramallah, and stormed Ras 'Atiya town in southern Qalqilya without making kidnappings.

In Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), Israeli police forces stormed at dawn Kafr I'qab town and El-Matar neighborhood while firing tear gas canisters and stun grenades at homes and local residents. No one was hurt during the IOFs raid in these areas.

On Friday, police forces stormed the towns of Qatanna and Qibya in the northwest of Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem) and raided two homes belonging to martyrs’ families.

Local sources said that police officers had already handed the families of martyrs Mu'hammed Taha and Muthanna Amr in these towns a notice ordering the confiscation and closure of their homes.

Recently, Mu'hammed and Muthanna carried out a shooting operation that killed six Jewish settlers and injured several others near an illegal settlement in east Jerusalem.

Israeli police forces also stormed Shu'fat refugee camp in northern Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem) and raided the house of Mu'hammed Al-Shawamra, who carried out a stabbing operation in Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), on Friday morning. He was arrested after injuring two of the illegal Israeli settlers.

Following the stabbing incident yesterday, Israeli occupation forces stormed the camp and opened fire at local residents, injuring three of them.

WEST BANK, (PIC)

The Israel occupation forces (IOFs) carried out raids in several areas of the West Bank last night and early Saturday morning, involving house searches and the detention of Palestinian citizens.

In Jineen, which has been facing Israeli aggression for 238 days, Israeli forces with bulldozers stormed the towns of Zubouba and Ti’inik west of the city.

Local sources said that the IOFs blocked the entrances of the towns with mounds of dirt and prevented the local residents from entering or leaving, amid heavy traffic congestion at an IOFs checkpoint leading to the Silat Al-Dthahiriya town, south of Jineen.

In El-Khalil (Hebron), the IOFs stormed the Samou' Boys’ High School and its classes in the south of the city and detained the principal and a staff member in its yard.

In Ramallah, Israeli forces raided some homes in Al-Mughayyir village and one commercial store in Baitounya town.

The IOFs also stormed other areas of the West Bank, with no reported kidnappings.

In a related context, the Asra Media Office has accused the IOFs of carrying out systematic and widespread arrest campaigns in the West Bank, affirming that these campaigns have escalated since the beginning of the genocidal war on Gaza.

According to Asra Media on Friday, over 19,000 Palestinian citizens have been arrested in the West Bank since the Israeli war on Gaza started in August 7, 2023.

Asra Media said that the IOFs had kidnaped about 1,000 citizens within a few hours during violent raids in Tulkarem province last Thursday.

A group of the armed illegal Israeli settlers attacked a Bedouin community on Saturday near the town of Jaba, east of occupied Jerusalem.

Local sources said the colonists assaulted the Al-Arara Bedouin community and set fire to several residential structures. There were no reports of casualties.

The community has been repeatedly targeted by Israeli forces and colonists as part of a policy aimed at displacing residents, particularly in Bedouin communities around occupied Jerusalem, to make way for settlement expansion and colonial projects.

Palestinian Maqdisi (Jerusalemite) activists sound the alarm over the illegal Israeli settler plans targeting Al-Aqsa Mosque, in Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem)

Palestinian Maqdisi (Jerusalemite) activists have warned of grave dangers facing Al-Aqsa Mosque in the coming days, citing the illegal Israeli settler groups and their far-right government’s escalating schemes.

Fakhri Abu Diab, a Jerusalem-based researcher and member of the Aqsa’s Board of Trustees, said the holy site is entering “extremely dangerous and difficult days.” He warned that the Israeli occupation is intensifying efforts to alter the Mosque’s status quo, using tunnel excavations to falsify history and fabricate a supposed link between Judaism and the Aqsa, with backing from the US administration.

Abu Dthiyab stressed that developments at the Aqsa confirm that the conflict is fundamentally religious and ideological, as Zionist institutions seek to rewrite history by promoting the false narrative of an ancient Jewish civilization at the site.

Meanwhile, Jerusalem archaeologist Bashar Abu Shamsiya revealed that newly exposed tunnels in Silwan connect the neighborhood directly to Al-Maghariba Gate. He said the tunnel links key areas of the 'Abbasi quarter in occupied Jerusalem, passing beneath the main street and ending at the gate, effectively facilitating settler incursions and Judaization projects.

Abu Shamsiya noted this tunnel is part of a larger network of excavations under the Old City, where construction has recently accelerated at an alarming pace.

Last week alone, 915 settlers stormed the Aqsa under Israeli occupation police protection. At the same time, the illegal settler extremist group “Bidino” has called on its followers to carry out a large-scale raid on the Mosque between September 22–24, coinciding with the Jewish New Year rituals. These incursions often feature settlers performing Temple rituals, particularly the blowing of the shofar.

The Aqsa Mosque endured a series of unprecedented violations last month, considered the most dangerous in decades. Data shows more than 8,134 settlers entered the compound in August, engaging in rituals such as shofar-blowing.

On August 3, coinciding with what Israel calls the anniversary of the “Temple’s destruction”, a record 3,969 settlers stormed the Mosque in a single day. The raid was led by Israel’s far-right national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, alongside senior Israeli officials and Knesset members.

Settlers also desecrated the adjacent Bab El-Ra'hma Cemetery, smashing Muslim gravestones. One rabbi issued a religious ruling to replace the Mosque’s paved flooring to allow settlers to kneel in prayer inside. Some settlers even held wedding celebrations inside the compound, waving Israeli flags and dancing.

In response, calls have been issued in Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem) and across occupied Palestine urging mass mobilization, presence, and steadfastness in the Aqsa’s courtyards to thwart settlers and government schemes. Activists emphasized the importance of maintaining a strong presence, performing prayers at the site, and breaking Israel’s attempts to isolate the Mosque from its people and religious identity.

Protests across the world demand end to genocide in Gaza

Saturday 13-September-2025

CAPITALS, (PIC)

Massive demonstrations erupted in cities and capitals around the world on Saturday, calling for an immediate end to what protesters described as the genocide being carried out against Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip.

In Auckland, New Zealand, thousands gathered to denounce Israel’s ongoing genocide and starvation policies targeting Palestinians. Protesters waved Palestinian flags and carried banners demanding an end to the killing of civilians. They also urged their government to impose sanctions on Israel.

New demonstrations are expected later today in several European countries, with calls to halt the war and provide urgent relief to Palestinians trapped under siege.

In Berlin, Germany, around 15,000 people have registered to take part in a rally under the slogan “Stop the genocide in Gaza.” German lawmaker Sahra Wagenknecht, one of the organizers, said musician Roger Waters, co-founder of Pink Floyd and a prominent supporter of the Boycott Israel movement, is scheduled to speak at the event.

Wagenknecht dismissed accusations of anti-Semitism against Waters, stressing that criticism of the Israeli government should not be conflated with hatred of Jews.

Weekly demonstrations have been taking place in Germany and other European states against the war on Gaza. Despite restrictions, particularly in Germany and Britain, turnout has grown significantly in recent weeks.

In the Arab world, several Moroccan cities witnessed rallies on Friday condemning Israeli attacks on Doha and Gaza. Crowds gathered outside the parliament in Rabat, calling for Israeli leaders to be held accountable for crimes against the region’s peoples.

Organizers, the Moroccan Commission for the Support of the Ummah’s Causes, said this was the 93rd consecutive week of mobilization. According to the group, 105 protests were staged across 56 Moroccan cities in solidarity with Gaza.

In Libya, protesters in Tajoura, east of the capital Tripoli, rallied after Friday prayer to show support for the “Fleet of Steadfastness,” a humanitarian flotilla preparing to sail from Bizerte, Tunisia, toward the besieged Strip.

Demonstrators condemned Israel’s ongoing war on Gaza, raised banners backing the Palestinian resistance and its leaders, and demanded an end to the blockade, safe entry of humanitarian aid, and protection for displaced families.

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.
