Israeli Military Reimposes Sentence on Former Prisoner from Occupied Palestine ’48
Picture

Palestinian former prisoners continue to face harsh persecution, as former prisoner Mohammed Zayed, released in the 2011 Wafa al-Ahrar prisoner exchange agreement (the so-called “Shalit deal”), became the latest person to have his former sentence reimposed, seven years after his liberation.

Zayed, 58, is a leader of the Abnaa el-Balad movement in occupied Palestine ’48. While he is a Palestinian citizen of Israel, his treatment makes clear the status of Palestinians in ’48 – colonized, occupied and subjected to a racist system.

When Zayed was released in 2011, he had already spent 19 years of his 35-year sentence in Israeli jails. Like his fellow released prisoners, he was forced to sign terms of release.

On Monday, 27 August, he was ordered to spend the remaining 16 years of his sentence behind bars. Louay Khatib, an Abnaa el-Balad representative, told Quds News that Zayed was arrested a short time ago on an unrelated matter not considered a “security” or political issue. He was sentenced to eight months in prison for this unrelated case, not referred to in the conditions of his release.

Khatib said that because he was sentenced to more than six months in prison, the Israeli military system re-imposed his former sentence, saying that the court’s decision in the other case “did not specify the nature of the matter.” Khatib also said that Zayed is appealing his case to the Central Military Court and the Supreme Court, despite the fact that his lawyer requires a fee of 100,000 NIS ($27,537 USD) to proceed.

He denounced this latest reimposed sentence against a Palestinian prisoner, demanding that “the Egyptian guarantor of the agreement must stand up to its responsibilities in this case. It is not reasonable that any conviction requires the reimposition of the former sentence.” Khatib also said that Zayed was told that he would not be housed with his fellow Palestinian prisoners but with criminal prisoners. Zayed, from the occupied city of Lyd in Palestine ’48, has a number of chronic diseases including diabetes and dyskinesia as well as suffering from a “difficult” psychological and social situation, according to Quds News.

Allam Kaabi, a former prisoner released in the Wafa al-Ahrar exchange and a leader of the prisoners’ committee of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, told Hadf News that “once again, occupation courts prove that they are criminal tools of repression of the Palestinian people.” He noted that around 55 freed prisoners had been re-arrested and their former sentences imposed as a form of pressure against the Palestinian resistance in any forthcoming prisoner exchange agreement. Kaabi also noted that more such arrests may be forthcoming in an attempt to escalate that pressure.

Palestinian resistance organizations have emphasized that the re-arrested prisoners of the Wafa al-Ahrar exchange must be released unconditionally before a prisoner exchange. Kaabi said that it is essential to ensure that these freed prisoners are not once again subject to re-arrest.

An Israeli military court on Wednesday decided to extend the detention of the Palestinian writer Lama Khater, 42, for the eighth time in a row.

Hazem al-Fakhouri, Lama's husband, wrote on Facebook that the Israeli court renewed his wife's remand for eight days "pending further investigation".

Al-Fakhouri said that he was able to talk to his wife for three minutes during which she sent her regards to all those asking about her and supporting her outside.

Khater two days ago was transferred from Ashkelon to Hasharon jail. According to the Palestinian Prisoner Society, she has been subjected to harsh and intensive interrogation since her arrest on 24th July.

A mother of five children, Khater has rejected all charges leveled against her by the Israeli occupation authorities.

300 Palestinian children deprived of their basic right to education
Picture
As over a million of children returned to school in occupied Palestinian territories on Wednesday, nearly 300 Palestinian children, including three girls, have been deprived of their basic right to education.

The Palestinian Center for Prisoners Studies said that Israeli authorities denied 300 Palestinian children to go back to their schools as they are kept in Israeli custody amid very difficult detention conditions.

Head of the center Raefat Hamouda called on children’s rights organizations to intervene immediately to protect Palestinian children’s right to have safe and unrestricted access to education.

Palestinian children are routinely and systematically tortured and otherwise ill-treated in Israeli jails, Hamouda explained.

Such practices totally violate international human rights laws and norms, he added, calling for an international protection to Palestinian childhood.

The Israeli army handed, Wednesday, a young Palestinian man a military order denying him access to the college where he studies, in Nablus, in northern West Bank, for six months.

Dweikat is a third-year Electrical Engineering student; he is also a former political prisoner who, on September 17th, 2017, was released from an Israeli detention center and being imprisoned for seven months.

He said that he contacted his college, and several human rights organizations, asking for help so that he can continue his studies.

Israeli forces use excessive violence towards Silwan residents

Israeli forces injured at least eight Palestinians, including three pregnant women, and detained three others from the Silwan neighborhood of occupied East Jerusalem, while demolishing a printing house, on Wednesday.

Local eyewitnesses told Ma'an that a large number of Israeli forces and police escorting staff members of the Jerusalem Municipality stormed the Palestinian neighborhood of Silwan.

Israeli forces surrounded the printing house before bulldozers began the demolition under the pretext that it was built without the nearly impossible-to-obtain Israeli building permit.

The demolished printing house belonged to Palestinian resident, Omar Siyam, who confirmed that the facility was established over 15 years ago.

Siyam noted that the municipality issued a demolition order against the building earlier this month, to which Siam and his lawyer responded by submitting an objection. However, the municipality did not respond to the objection nor deliver another demolition notice as a warning.

The Wadi Hilweh Information Center, in the neighborhood, said that Israeli forces were deployed across Silwan preventing residents from movement, whether by foot or using a vehicle; they also sealed a main road.

Clashes erupted following the demolition, during which Israeli forces assaulted several Palestinian residents, among whom were girls, women, and elderly, by beating and pushing them.

The center added that Israeli forces showered residents with sound and tear-gas bombs, in addition to firing live ammunition and rubber-coated steel bullets.

Dr. Haitham Yaghmour, director of the Ein al-Luza Medical Center, confirmed that eight residents were injured; several of them suffered injuries by rubber-coated steel bullets, while others suffered from tear-gas inhalation.

Yaghmour pointed out that among the injured were three pregnant women, who were present at the medical center to receive checkups when Israeli forces broke in and raided the center.

All of the injured were later transferred to a hospital to receive medical treatment.

Yaghmour added that Israeli forces attacked medical teams who were providing first aid to the injured in the field; they suffered bruising.

Additionally, Israeli forces detained three Palestinians during the clashes; they were identified as Ahmad Samrin, Izz Samrin and Tareq Ruwadi.
