Violent clashes burst out at daybreak Tuesday in the West Bank provinces of Jenin and Qalqilya between Palestinian anti-occupation youth and heavily-armed Israeli patrols.
A PIC news correspondent said dozens of Israeli soldiers broke into Qalqilya’s eastern town of Azzoun and showered the area with teargas canisters. Several Palestinians sustained breathing disorders in the assault.

The “Ofer” Israeli military court decided, Monday, to remand world-renowned teen journalist ‘Ahed Tamimi, for four more days, after refusing to release her on bail, and accusing her of “threatening Israel’s security.”
‘Ahed Tamimi, 17, will be sent to court again this coming Friday, and is facing charges, which include “attacking officers,” along with her detained cousin, Nour Naji Tamimi, 21, when the army raided her family home in Nabi Saleh town, near Ramallah, last Tuesday, before abducting her along with her mother, Nariman Tamimi, 43.
The court will later be determining the fate of her detained mother, and cousin. Both ‘’Ahed and Nour, were seen on tape, arguing with Israeli soldiers who invaded Nabi Saleh.
When Ahed was 12, her mother’s cousin, Mustafa Tamimi, was killed before her eyes during a protest, shot in the head by a gas canister.
One year later, she witnessed the army shoot and kill her uncle Rashadi. Last week, her cousin Mohammed, nearly her age, was shot in the face by a rubber-coated bullet that penetrated his skull. He remains unconscious.”

The Israeli occupation authorities deported on Monday two of the three Turks who were detained during demonstrations at al-Aqsa mosque last week after U.S. President Donald Trump recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
Abdullah Kızılırmak and Mehmet Gargalı reportedly arrived in Istanbul late Monday on a Turkish Airlines plane.
According to eyewitnesses, the Israeli police blocked the Turkish group, which also included children, from entering al-Aqsa Mosque— the third holiest site in Islam. Some in the group were wearing t-shirts with the Turkish flag and fezzes, traditional Ottoman hats.
The Israeli forces shouted at the group, telling them that they would not be able to enter the site unless they took off their t-shirts with the Turkish flags, causing a brawl after which two people were detained, the eyewitnesses said.
Tension has mounted in the Palestinian territories since Dec. 6, when U.S. President Donald Trump recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, drawing protest and condemnation from across the Arab and Muslim world.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and other top Turkish officials have remained at the forefront of international opposition to the U.S. move.
Last Thursday, the UN General Assembly overwhelmingly adopted a resolution -- by a vote of 128 to 9 -- calling on Trump to reverse the decision.

An ultra right-wing Israeli minister verbally harassed Palestinians from Gaza as they traveled on a bus, to visit their imprisoned relatives in southern Israel’s Nafha prison, hurling abuse at women on the bus calling their sons “dogs.”
MK Oren Hazan of the right-wing Likud party, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s party, intercepted and boarded a bus of Palestinian families traveling to Nafha prison on Monday, according to Ma’an. As he confronted the Palestinian families, he turned to the mother of an imprisoned Palestinian and asked, “Who did you come to visit? What did your son do?” to which she replied “He did not do anything.” Hazan responded to the mother by saying “Your son is a dog. He’s a |
dog. You come to visit the scum who are sitting here in prison, whom you see as your family members.”
As the woman attempted to respond to Hazan’s abuse, he shouted over her saying, “I will make sure you can not visit here any more and we’ll do everything so you will not get in. You are not welcome here, you have to understand well, you raised your son to murder.”
Hazan was with a group of other right-wing Israelis who are part of the so-called Task Force for the Release of Prisoners and Missing Persons.
The group has vowed to continue intercepting buses and attacking Palestinian families as long as Hamas continues holding Israeli soldiers in Gaza.
During his attack on the families, he said, “I want to tell you all, your friends in Gaza are holding our brothers, Hadar Goldin and Oron Shaul and Avera Mengistu, and if you do not bring this message home that we want to get our children back you will not come here anymore. If you continue here you will not see them alive.”
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), which organizes the weekly trips for families of Palestinian prisoners from Gaza, responded to the incident, saying “the prisoners’ families were entitled to visit their children with dignity.”
According to prisoners rights group Addameer, there are currently 6,198 Palestinians detained by Israel as of October. The group has estimated that some 40 percent of Palestinian men will be detained by Israel at some point in their lives.

Israeli public prosecution on Monday asked Ofer military court to extend the detention of the Palestinian teenager Ahed al-Tamimi, 17, for ten days to complete the investigation procedures.
The Israeli court on Sunday refused to release Tamimi on bail until trial.
The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested Ahed during a dawn raid on 19th December in Nabi Saleh village near Ramallah under the pretext of "slapping" an Israeli soldier as she was attempting to drive him out of her family's property.
The IOF later arrested Ahed's mother, Nariman, who, according to her lawyer, went to an Israeli detention center to inquire about her daughter's whereabouts. The next day, Ahed's cousin, Nour al-Tamimi, was arrested too.

An Israeli court in Beer Sheba ruled on Sunday for imprisoning the elderly Palestinian civilian Sayah al-Touri, aged 68, for 10 months and deporting him from Araqeeb village.
The Israeli court also ruled that al-Touri pay a fine of 36,000 shekels.
Al-Touri said he will not accept to be released in exchange for his deportation from al-Araqeeb.
Efforts have been under full swing by his defense attorneys to file an appeal at Israel’s Central Court.
The court slapped 18 charges against al-Touri, including state property assaults.
In statements issued sometime earlier, al-Araqeeb’s lawyer Shahda Ibn Bari said the crackdowns against al-Touri are retaliatory and oppressive.
He added that the Israeli authorities have been striving to force al-Touri out of his land without enabling him to prove his ownership of it.
Araqeeb is one of more than 35 Palestinian villages, across the Negev region, unrecognized by the Israeli government.
The Israeli authorities claim the Bedouins have established their homes without obtaining the necessary permits. The village has been demolished by the Israelis for over 120 times over recent years.

It is the Israeli mindset. During Israeli offensive on Gaza in 2014, an Israeli soldier called on Netanyahu to rape all Palestinian mothers in Gaza.
Prominent Israeli journalist called for raping the Palestinian minor female prisoner inside Israeli jails Ahed al-Tamimi, 16, over slapping an Israeli soldier who shot her 15-year-old cousin in the head.
“In the case of the girls [Ahed al-Tamimi], we should exact a price at some other opportunity, in the dark, without witnesses and cameras,” journalist Ben Caspit wrote in an article published by the Hebron Maariv newspaper.
What might this price exactly be, considering that he is referring specifically to teenage girls? We are left to wonder. Perhaps he wishes to leave it to the imagination of the soldiers who would invade the home at night, ensuring that no cameras are filming.
Ben Caspit’s suggestion is a sly and wretched one, and it comes with the smugness of congratulating the soldiers for their moral strength, as it were, for not having acted back with force against the girls – on film, that is.
“There is no stomach which does not turn when witnessing this clip,” Caspit says, referring to Zionist stomachs, that is. “I, for example, if I were to encounter that situation, I would have long ago been in detention until end of procedures.”
In other words, Caspit is saying he would run amok on the girls to a degree that would get him arrested. That’s what he’s indirectly suggesting would be ‘normal,’ because he would do it.
Caspit’s suggestion resembles that of the Israeli Defence Minister Lieberman, who also said on Tuesday that “whoever goes wild during the day, will be arrested at night,” adding that “everyone involved, not only the girl but also her parents and those around them will not escape from what they deserve.”
The soldiers were repeatedly being called “gays” and “trannies” because they were not seduced by this little girl and did not rape her.
Elor Azarya, the Israeli soldier who killed a motionless Palestinian in Al-Khalil last year, wrote in July 2014, near the beginning of the onslaught on Gaza: “Bibi, you are transvestite. What a ceasefire? Penetrate their mothers!”
Israeli Culture Minister Miri Regev described the unwillingness of the Israeli soldiers to rape the little girls as “damaging of the honour of the Israeli army.”

![]() An Israeli court denied, Sunday, an appeal for the release of detained world-renowned teen journalist, ‘Ahed Tamimi, 16, who stands accused of “assaulting soldiers,” who raided her family home in Nabi Saleh town, near Ramallah, before abducting her along with her mother, last Tuesday.
A video published on social media outlets showed Tamimi in court, cuffed and surrounded by Israeli officers, when a woman’s voice could be heard in the background saying, “’Hello Ahed, are you OK?” before the teenage girl nodded, while the soldiers were trying to prevent any communication her. It is worth mentioning that, one day after the soldiers abducted ‘Ahed and her mother, the army invaded Nabi Saleh again and abducted her cousin Noor Tamimi. The Israeli army is claiming that ‘Ahed attacked a soldier, when many officers attempted to invade her home. Her father, Bassam Tamimi, stated that the Israeli court denied appeals filed for her release, and decided to remand her for an additional period, while the Israeli prosecution is trying to ramp up illegal charges against her. “The Israeli occupation claims that it has a legal system, but such a system does not exist as these courts are run by the military which illegally occupies our land, and serves this colonialist regime and illegal occupation of our land,” he said. |
It is worth mentioning that, when the soldiers abducted ‘Ahed, she was trying to stop them from occupying her home’s rooftop, to use it as a firing post against and a monitoring tower, in her town, known for ongoing nonviolent resistance against the illegal Israeli Annexation Wall and colonies.
