Picture
The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested 4 Palestinian youths and a child on Tuesday in confrontations near Ofer prison in Ramallah.

Local sources reported that a number of suffocation cases were reported in the confrontations.

The clashes erupted following a demonstration organized by the students of Birzeit University protesting the IOF assassination of Basel al-Araj in Ramallah on Monday.

The protesters chanted slogans against the Israeli occupation  and called for halting the security coordination between Israel and the Palestinian Authority.

11 Palestinians indicted for alleged attacks against Israeli targets
Picture
The Israeli police said on Tuesday that indictments were served against 11 Palestinian citizens from Bethlehem city for throwing stones, Molotov cocktails, and homemade bombs at Israeli targets.

According to a statement on Tuesday, the Israeli police have completed investigations into the files of the 11 Palestinians, 8 of whom are minors. The youths are from Aida refugee camp, north of Bethlehem.

The Palestinian youths were accused of throwing stones, Molotov cocktails, and explosives at Rachel's Tomb army camp, north of Bethlehem, after school hours, “threatening the lives of Israeli soldiers", the police said.

The Israeli police claimed that the investigations showed that the young men have learnt how to make explosive bombs through the internet and watching videos "inciting violence and terrorism".

The Israeli police forces recently arrested dozens of Palestinian youths following daily attacks conducted against Rachel's Tomb army camp with explosives. The attacks resulted in injuring Israeli settlers and soldiers.

Doctors with Nazi mentality torture Palestinian prisoners
Picture
Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails spoke of physical and psychological torture they were subjected to inside Israeli jails at the hands of Israeli doctors, who were supposed to treat them, during their arrest and interrogation. By doing do, these doctors acted like Nazis, serving the goals of the Israeli occupation against Palestinian prisoners.

In a report obtained by the PIC on Saturday, 4 March 2017, the prisoners and ex-prisoners commission said the Israeli prison service’s doctors, and Israeli doctors working for security forces and those working inside the Israeli army camps, torture Palestinian prisoners by psychologically pressuring and neglecting them, and leaving them alone to face illness invading their bodies, with no regard to the manner and teachings of medicine, and the international and humanitarian laws in this regard.

The report asserted that many prisoners testified to the collaboration between doctors and interrogators in subjecting Palestinian prisoners to torture and that doctors presented reports stating that Palestinian prisoners have the ability to endure torture and physical and psychological exhaustion and refused to provide needed medication for wounded Palestinian prisoners while being questioned at interrogation centers.

The report stated that the doctors didn’t object to the Israeli interrogators’ bargains to offer Palestinian prisoners medication in return for confession, which asserts their involvement in torture.

The report, published by the prisoners and ex-prisoners commission, revealed that the fact that Palestinian prisons have to wait for a long time, which extends to years sometimes, to be moved to hospitals for medical tests is a crime committed by doctors working at the Israeli prison service.

Some prisoners died and later it was revealed that their death was due to medical negligence, for not providing them with the needed early tests to identify their illness and to provide them with the needed medication.

Systemic Conspiracy

The report revealed that the doctors at the Israeli prison service didn’t carry out their responsibilities regarding conducting basic medical examinations for prisoners, and didn’t object moving prisoners in Bosta vans, not ambulances, to hospitals, and that they presented no reports regarding the suitability of conditions of imprisonment for Palestinian prisoners’ health.

The report added that there is an absolute silence and complicity from doctors, which makes them accused of violating all principles and laws related to medical service, as they abandoned their responsibilities related to providing healthcare for prisoners, and protecting them from harsh, humiliating and inhuman treatment.

The report noted, “There is a planned supervision by these doctors over the needs of Palestinian prisoners, which is related to prisoners’ healthcare, food and cleanliness. Many of these doctors remained silence when Palestinian prisoners were ill-treated, such as exposing them to beating, teargas attacks, and banning them from family visits.

The report said that Israeli doctors did not reveal the results of autopsy of dead Palestinian prisoners, and did not hand them over to the official Palestinian bodies, in addition to hiding information about medical mistakes and examinations conducted on Palestinian prisoners.

The report said the doctors at the Israeli prison service were complicit with the political position of the Israeli government as well as that of the Israeli security apparatus, in many cases, such as writing reports rejecting early release for sick and wounded Palestinian prisoners, claiming that their medical condition was good, in addition to creating many obstacles to deny other doctors’ access into jails to conduct necessary medical examinations for Palestinian sick prisoners.

Nazism at large

The report mentioned a number of examples, which clarified the Israeli prison service’s doctors’ complicity in neglecting Palestinian prisoners, who suffered from serious illnesses:

- A number of Palestinian prisoners passed away and later it was revealed that they suffered from many diseases, including prisoner Maysara Abuhamdia, Fadi Al-Darbi, Zuhair Lubadda, Yasser Hamdouna, Mohammed Al-Jallad, Ashraf Abu Zreei, Zakari Issa and others.

- The doctors’ reluctance to intervene in the case of prisoners suffering from psychological and mental issues due to placing them in solitary confinement.

- The doctors’ silence over medical mistakes prisoners had gone through, such as what happened to prisoner Samer Abu Diak, who suffered from poisoning during a surgery to remove tumor in the stomach in the Israeli hospital of Soroka on 3 September 2015. He then slipped into a coma. Another instance was what happened to prisoner Thaer Halahli, who suffered from Hepatitis E after seeing the dentist on 16 April 2013, who used polluted medial tools in Askalan prison’s clinic, and what happened to prisoner Othman Abukharj, who was given an injection ‘by mistake’ at Shata prison in 2007, which resulted in the prisoner’s suffering from Hepatitis E.

- The doctors’ silence over the continuing detention of sick prisoners at Al-Ramla prison clinic, which is worse than prison itself, and the lack of all humanitarian and health requirements.

- The doctors’ silence over the force-feeding of Palestinian prisoners on hunger strike, with all what that entails of health risks, and violation of the dignity and rights of hunger strikers.

- The doctors’ silence over making sick prisoners pay for their medical bills, especially when it comes to installing artificial limbs for handicapped prisoners.

- The doctors’ silence over forcing prisoners to confess under torture and threats, especially for minors, and refraining from providing information about prisoners who were subjected to harsh treatment during their interrogation and detention.

The report said the Israeli prison service’s doctors and the Israeli security forces violated the Fourth Geneva Conventions of 1949 and the United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners of 1955, related to food, cleanliness, and medical care given to prisoners.

Israeli doctors violated the World Medical Association document of 1956, which stated that the basic task of doctors is to protect health and to save lives.

Israeli doctors also violated the Tokyo declaration of 1975, which explains the role of medical teams in protecting prisoners and detainees form torture even if authorities try to force them to be part of it and that it is their duty to provide the prisoners and detainees with the health and mental protection and to treat their illnesses with the same quality of healthcare given to non-prisoners and detainees.

Break-ins, cash theft, arrests in West Bank sweep by Israeli army
Picture
The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) at daybreak Tuesday stormed West Bank provinces and wreaked havoc on Palestinian ex-prisoners’ homes.

Reporting from the southern West Bank province of al-Khalil, a PIC news correspondent said the IOF ravaged over 20 ex-prisoners’ homes and seized cash.

Ex-prisoner Fayez Mesk was detained by the IOF for hours and subjected to intensive questioning before he was released afterwards.

Ex-prisoner Mesk said on Facebook that the occupation soldiers stole 15,000 shekels from his home.

The campaign also targeted the homes of ex-prisoners Anas Zagheir, Ahmed al-Aweiwi (journalist), Sheikh Fawzi al-Khatib, and Hesham al-Sharbati, among others.

The Israeli forces also rummaged into the home of ex-prisoner Rasmi Doufesh, the father of the two slain Palestinians Tareq and Jihad, and seized laptops and mobile phones.

Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation army claimed, overnight, responsibility for the abduction of a Hamas activist from Jenin’s southern town of Qabatiya and two other Palestinians from Husan, west of Bethlehem, on allegations of involvement in anti-occupation activities.

The IOF further closed a blacksmith shop in Jama’in village, in southern Nablus, and seized all of its equipment on claims that it was used to manufacture weapons.

The IOF also claimed that weapons and ammunition were detected in Bartaa, near Jenin.

At the same time, thousands of dollars were seized by the Israeli army in arbitrary assaults targeting Palestinian homes in al-Khalil on allegations that they are funneled to anti-occupation organizations.

Meanwhile, a flock of Israeli military patrols, escorted by a police jeep, stormed Nablus’s eastern towns of Rujaib and Ourata and rummaged into civilian homes. A Palestinian vehicle was seized from Rujaib in the process.

The campaign culminated in the abduction of six Palestinians from southern Jenin. At least 20 Palestinian homes have been subjected to abrupt searches in Bartaa town, to the east.

The occupation army further cracked down on the Palestinian residents and subjected dozens to exhaustive interrogation.

The list of Jenin arrestees included Saleh Hathnawi Mootassem Qubha, Mu’nis Qubha, Mujahed Khatib, and the two brothers Hamed and Maher.

At predawn time, Palestinian youth Talib Jumu’a sustained thigh wounds in clashes with the IOF in Kafr Kaddoum, in eastern Qalqilya. He was rushed to a local hospital for urgent treatment.

The IOF further kidnapped a Palestinian youth from the town and summoned four others to questioning.

The Israeli forces reportedly raked through Qalqilya’s eastern town of Azzoun and broke into the home of the Palestinian citizen Sofyan Awdeh before they attacked his family members.

Palestinian sentenced to one year over social media postings
Picture
An Israeli court in Haifa city on Monday sentenced a Palestinian young man to one year in prison on charges of incitement and supporting a resistance group on social media.

According to Quds Press, the ruling was issued following a compromise between the defense lawyer and the Israeli prosecutor.

The indictment claimed that 20-year-old Khaled Mawasi, from I'billin village in the Galilee, published postings on Facebook and Instagram that incited to violence and terrorism (acts of resistance against the occupation) and supported Hamas.  

Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, recently enacted legislation criminalizing anyone who incite against Israel on social media outlets and allowing the competent authorities to give orders to providers of social networking services to remove postings inciting against Israel.

There was also a special agreement last year between Facebook and Israel over disabling pages that antagonize Israel and incite against it.

More than 150 Palestinians had been arrested and jailed after they expressed opinions against Israel on their social media pages since the outbreak of al-Aqsa intifada (uprising) in October 2015.
