Israel sentences Palestinian prisoner to 10 years, another over Facebook posts
Picture
The Israeli Salem military court sentenced the Palestinian detainee Mohamed Jamal Hafedh Jawabra, 37, to ten years in jail and a five-thousand-shekel fine.

The Israeli occupation forces arrested Prisoner Jawabra on November 6, 2013 and convened 13 court hearings about his case on allegations of running over an Israeli soldier at the Berka crossroads, near Nablus.

Prisoner Jawabra, currently held at the Israeli jail of Meggido, has been working as an Imam at a local Mosque in Jenin’s town of Araba.

Meanwhile, the Jerusalem Magistrate Court on Tuesday sentenced the secretary general of Fatah’s Jerusalem branch to nine months in prison allegedly for using his personal Facebook account to incite violence and support terrorism against Israelis.

The sentencing of Omar Shalabi, 44, marks the first time Israeli courts handed out a prison sentence for incitement on social media, according to the Ynet news website.

Shalabi, a resident of Jerusalem’s Izriya town, is the father of six children and an ex-prisoner arrested by Israeli forces in December 2014.

The indictment against him referenced 10 Facebook statuses written between July and October of last year, in which he hailed various anti-occupation attacks.

Israel sentences Palestinian to 9 months for Facebook posts
Picture
The former secretary-general of Fatah in Jerusalem has been sentenced to nine months in an Israeli prison for activity on social media.

The Israeli magistrate's court in Jerusalem handed the sentence to Omar al-Shalabi after he was convicted of inciting anti-Jewish violence and supporting "terror" in posts and comments on Facebook.

Al-Shalabi was one of eight Palestinian men detained in December 2014 in East Jerusalem under the same charges.Their indictment said that Israeli intelligence had monitored the men's Facebook postings since last June, after three Israeli settlers were kidnapped and killed in the occupied West Bank.

The intelligence said that their online comments had raised tensions across Jerusalem and encouraged acts of "terrorism." They cited in particular postings on the murder of 16-year-old Muhammad Abu Khdeir, who was kidnapped and killed by a group of Jewish extremists in July, as well as on a spate of Palestinian attacks on Israeli military and civilians that mostly took place in occupied East Jerusalem.

The indictment included details of the Facebook postings such the number of "likes," "shares" and "comments" by friends on Facebook.

Last month, two of the groups arrested along with al-Shalabi --Adnan Ghaith,the current secretary-general of Fatah in Jerusalem, and Islam al-Natsheh-- were released from an Israeli prison following five months without trial. Separately in April, Israeli police arrested a 17-year-old for a week for a posting on Facebook.

Hadi al-Ajlouni, who was released from prison after paying a fine of 1,000 shekels ($254), told Ma'an he was detained while leaving his house in the Old City on suspicion of planning an attack on Israelis. During his interrogation, it emerged that he was under suspicion because he had written "forgive me" on Facebook.

The teenager had written the post following an argument with his brothers, he told Ma'an. Israelis on social media routinely and openly incite violence against Palestinians, especially during heightened periods of tensions such as this summer's military offensive on Gaza, but none have yet faced prosecution.

In recent months, the Palestinian Authority has also arrested Palestinians over postings on Facebook. In November 2014, it was reported that Ayman Mahariq, a journalism student at Al-Quds University, was arrested and beaten for posting remarks critical of the security forces, while in January, Bara al-Qadi, a media student at Birzeit, was arrested for postings criticizing the Palestinian Authority.

Three Palestinians Kidnapped, Two Summoned For Interrogation
Picture
Israeli soldiers kidnapped, Tuesday, a Palestinian man, summoned two for interrogation, in the West Bank district of Bethlehem, a child in occupied Jerusalem, and a third Palestinian in Hebron. Two Palestinians kidnapped in Jerusalem, on Monday.

Palestinian security sources in Bethlehem said the soldiers kidnapped Omar Habib Mousa, 30 years of age, after summoning him for interrogation in the Etzion military base, south of the city.

Mousa, from Ras Efteis area in Bethlehem, headed to the Etzion base after the soldiers invaded his home, searched it, and handed him the interrogation order.

The sources added that the army invaded Husan town, west of Bethlehem, broke into and searched a number of homes, and handed Dia’ Mohammad Zaghoul, 20, and Mohammad Kamal Zaghoul, 30, military warrants for interrogation, also in Etzion.

In addition, dozens of soldiers conducted military drills in Wad al-Jouz and Farsh al-Hawa, in the southern West Bank district of Hebron.

The soldiers also invaded Beit Ummar town, north of Hebron, and kidnapped one resident identified as Kifah Ahmad Abu Ayyash.

In occupied Jerusalem, soldiers kidnapped a Palestinian child, identified as Yousef al-Hazeena, 14, near the Sahera Gate, in the Old City. Eyewitnesses said the soldiers took the child to the Police station in the nearby Salah Eddin area.

On Monday at dawn, soldiers kidnapped three Palestinians, including a child, after breaking into their homes in Jerusalem.

The three have been identified as Mofid Es’id, 15 years of age, Hotheifa Shreiteh, 20, and Fahed Shalabi, 22.

Lawyer Shireen al-‘Eesawy Moved Into Solitary Confinement
Picture
The Palestinian Detainees Committee has reported, Tuesday, that the administration in the Ramla Israeli Prison moved lawyer Shireen al-‘Eesawy, from the al-‘Eesawiyya town in occupied Jerusalem, into solitary confinement. Shireen is the sister of detainee Samer al-‘Eesawy.

The committee said the administration placed the imprisoned lawyer with Israeli women, held on criminal charges, and moved her to a small solitary cell.

It added that the soldiers confiscated all electric equipment and belongings of al-‘Eesawy, and placed her in a tiny, dark and humid cell.

Shireen was repeatedly assaulted by her jailors, and by many imprisoned Israeli women, while the soldiers kept punishing and subjecting her to very harsh conditions.

The Committee stated that the escalating Israeli violations against the detainees, especially the ongoing psychological abuse, is a deliberate method used in an attempt to break the detainees, and increase their suffering.

The imprisoned lawyer, and four other female detainees, have been facing harsh punitive measures in the HaSharon Israeli prison, for the last two weeks, after an Israeli prisoner claimed they quarreled with her.

The Prison Administration did not even investigate the claim, and moved the five Palestinian political prisoners into solitary confinement.

Shireen is the sister detainee Samer al-‘Eesawy, who was sent to court Sunday where the judge reinstated his original 30-year imprisonment term for “violating the terms of his release.”

Samer was kidnapped in June of 2014, along with dozens of former political prisoners who were released as part of the Shalit Prisoner Swap agreement.

He spent ten years of his 30-year term before his was released under the Shalit deal, and the new ruling against him reinstated the twenty remaining years of his sentence.

The court also reinstated life terms against six detainees, who were released under the Shalit agreement, and were rearrested in recent months. The detainees are Aladdin al-Bazian, Adnan Maragha, Ismael Hijazi, Jamal Abu Saleh, Rajab Tahhan, and Nasser Abedrabbo.

The ruling was appealed, and the court recently decided to study each case separately before issuing its final verdict.

On Monday December 23 2013, Samer al-‘Eeesawy was released after being held for 17 months; the agreement for his release came after his historic 277-day hunger strike.

In June 0f 2014, Israel recaptured at least 50 ex-detainees that were released in the 2011 prisoners exchange agreement, al-‘Eesawy was among the kidnapped. Most of them remain held either under administrative detention - without indictment or trial - or are still awaiting military court ruling.

Prisoner Barghouti unshackled from Israeli bars
Picture
The Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) afternoon Monday released the 62-year-old Palestinian detainee Omar al-Barghouti, from the West Bank province of Ramallah, after he had served almost one year in administrative detention, with neither charge nor trial.

Prisoner al-Barghouti had reportedly spent a total of 26 years at the Israeli occupation penitentiaries.

Earlier, in February, Israel’s Supreme Court turned down a petition submitted by lawyer Jawad Boulous in objection to the administrative sentence issued against prisoner al-Barghouti.

He said the fact that Barghouti was locked up administratively for a period amounting to 10 years in total, without any proven indictments, “doesn’t just make sense.”

The detainee is the father of six sons and the grandfather of 10 grandsons and granddaughters.

Activist: women, children among 95% of Palestinian detainees tortured by Israel
Picture
At least 95% of Palestinians arrested by the Israeli occupation forces have been subjected to psycho-physical torture both throughout the interrogation and post-interrogation phases, a Palestinian human rights activist reported Monday.

Media advisor at the Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Committee, Hasan Abd Rabo, said in a press statement the Israeli occupation spares no single effort to castigate the Palestinian detainees and use them as bargaining chips in political races.

The activist spoke out against Israel’s pre-mediated medical negligence against the detainees, citing the deliberate contamination of infectious germs into the bodies of sick prisoners as a case in point.

 “Dozens of detainees are subjected to dire circumstances and need urgent medical therapy for the Israeli wardens only provide them with provisional painkillers,” he said.

Abd Rabo also raised alarm bells over the mistreatment and abuse undergone by Palestinian female detainees and children at Israeli lock-ups, where neither gender nor age seem to have made a difference.

The activist called for the need to join forces with all human rights organizations, both nationwide and overseas, to speak up for the prisoners’ rights and work on assuaging the agonies inflicted by Israeli wardens on Palestinians.

IOF conduct military drill in Hebron area, kidnap citizen
Picture
Israeli occupation forces Tuesday morning have conducted military drills in several areas in the Hebron district, southern West Bank.

The drill took place in Wadi Al joz and Farsh Al-Hawa neighborhoods in the city. Back in August, Israeli authorities evicted 1,300 Palestinians from their homes in the south Hebron hills, in the West Bank, claiming they reside in an army military training firing zone.

Israeli forces as well arrested a citizen from Beit Ommar village north Hebron, after raiding his home.

In march, Israeli forces launched military drill in the areas surrounding Gaza, without any previous warning. The drill contained active movement of military machines and warplanes, in addition to bombardment noises that last until late night hours.

In December, Israeli occupation forces held military live ammunition training in Khirbet Tawil area South Nablus, West Bank.

Military training has often targeted Palestinians, including children, causing several injuries and home evictions.

In October, Israeli Occupation Forces stormed into Aida refugee camp without any provocation and began shooting tear gas, sound bombs and rubber coated steel bullets at children in the streets.

Eyewitness back then said that soldiers were training by using families, children and homes as military practice.

In October as well, Israeli Occupation authorities distributed eviction threats to 19 Palestinian families in the area of the Northern Jordan valleys, in order to use area for military purposes.

Army Carries Out A Limited Invasion In Gaza
Picture
A number of Israeli military vehicles carried out, on Monday morning, a limited invasion into an area east of Gaza city, and fired a number of rounds of live ammunition on farmers in southern Gaza.

Media sources said the soldiers briefly advanced into Palestinian lands in the Shejaeyya area, east of Gaza city, fired several rounds of live ammunition, and withdrew back to their base, across the border fence.

In addition, soldiers stationed on military towers, across the border fence, opened fire on Palestinian farmers in their lands, east of the al-Qarara town, in Khan Younis, in the southern part of the coastal region, forcing them to leave.

The army caries out repeated invasions, and attacks, targeting the Palestinians, their homes and lands, especially in areas close to the border fence.

Detained Child Tortured In The al-Maskobiyya Interrogation Center
Picture
The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) has reported Monday that a recently detained Palestinian child has been subject to torture, and frequent violations, by Israeli soldiers and interrogators, in a military base, before being moved to the al-Maskobiyya interrogation facility, in occupied Jerusalem.

The PPS said that child was beaten with weapons and batons, while the soldiers also repeatedly kicked him, causing various cuts and bruises to his head, and other parts of his body.

The child, Malek Emad Zayed, from Ramallah, told a PPS lawyer that he was bleeding from his head, after the soldiers repeatedly kicked and beat him, and that he was not allowed to have any food, or even water.

The child was later moved to the al-Maskobiyya interrogation facility, where the PPS lawyer eventually managed to meet him.

The PPS said the army decided to keep the child under interrogation until May 15, for what the interrogators said, “Obtaining a secret file against him.”

Such “secret files," largely used to keep Palestinians held for extended periods without charges or trial, include alleged violations and charges that neither the detainees, nor their lawyers, can ever have access to.

They are mainly used to keep Palestinian detainees held under arbitrary “Administrative Detention” orders, without charges. Many detainees spent years in prison as such ordered kept getting renewed by military judges.

13 arrests reported in WB, occupied J’lem
Picture
The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) nabbed at dawn Monday 13 Palestinians after storming and searching their homes throughout occupied Jerusalem and West Bank.

A minor was among three arrests reported in occupied Jerusalem, local sources said.

Three youths were nabbed at makeshift checkpoints in Nablus city to the north of occupied West Bank.

In Ramallah, IOF arrested five Palestinians including two brothers from Jalzoun refugee camp southern the city.

Another young man was detained at the entrance of Jericho city, while another arrest was reported in Beit Umar town in al-Khalil.

Around 7,000 Palestinians are currently held in 25 Israeli jails and detention centers amid very tough detention conditions including 1500 sick prisoners, 12 free elected MPs, and hundreds of women and children.

Samer Issawi original prison sentence of 30 years reinstated
Picture
Today, the Israeli military court at Ofer prison in Betunia, Ramallah, issued a verdict to reinstate the original sentence of Samer Issawi. Issawi, who became world famous due to his legendary record-breaking hunger strike during his previous arrest, was originally sentenced to 30 years imprisonment on the basis of his alleged resistance activities.

During the historic prisoner swap deal brokered by Egypt in 2011, Samer Issawi was released after having spent 10 years in prison, and his original sentence was revoked. He was then rearrested in July 2012 on false allegations of having violated the conditions of the deal, but waged a record-breaking 277-day hunger strike against his detention.

His courageous struggle and charismatic personality won the hearts of many around the world, and gave rise to widespread solidarity campaigns and protests. This put the Israeli occupation authorities under significant pressure, which resulted in a deal with the prison authorities, in which Samer Issawi negotiated his release. The announcement of this deal on April 22, 2013, was celebrated among solidarity activists as a victory against the occupation, and against the random imprisonment of Palestinians.

However, in July 2014, Samer was rearrested. Solidarity movements had their hands full making sure that news from the savage Israeli attack on Gaza would reach the masses, despite a worldwide pro-Israeli clampdown of mainstream media, so it barely caught their attention.

While his health condition still left a lot to be desired for, there was no strong campaign for his release as in his previous detention. Samer's main advocate, his sister the lawyer Shireen Issawi, who had relentlessly campaigned for the release of her brother, had already been imprisoned in March 2014, together with their other brother Medhat. While still in detention, Shireen received the Al Karama Human Rights Award in absentiam, for her brave stances in campaigning for Palestinian political prisoners.

All three siblings, Samer, Shireen and Medhat are still in detention. The news of the reinstatement of Samer Issawi's original 30-year prison sentence has come as a harsh blow for the Issawi family, continuously harassed and terrorized by the forces of the Israeli occupation for their brave resilience in the face of a brutal and illegal occupation.

The news of Issawi's sentence is expected to evoke widespread condemnation, solidarity activism, and protest. As the news slowly reaches the masses, it is of vital importance that calls for the release of the hero Samer Issawi are reiterated, and that solid campaigns are initiated.

IOF nabs two Palestinians on way to friend’s wedding
Picture
The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Sunday apprehended two Palestinian youths from the Jenin refugee camp, in the northern West Bank, as they were heading to their friend’s wedding ceremony in the 1948 Occupied Palestine.

The Israeli border cops arrested the two young men Ziad Omar Othman Ubeid, 25, and Ghassan Abu Ghareh, 21, on their way to Aka city, in the 1948 occupied territories, at the invitation of a soon to-wed friend of their own, local sources told a PIC correspondent.

The IOF troops dragged the two captives to an unknown destination, the same sources said, adding that the abduction makes part of Israeli intents to crack down on the young residents of the 1948 occupied Palestine.

Prison Sentences Reinstated to 5 Ex-Detainees
Picture
The Israeli military court of Ofer, on Sunday, sentenced five Palestinian ex-detainees – who were released in the Gilad Shalit prisoners swap in 2011 and were rearrested in 2014 – to serve the remainder of their original sentences, according to the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society (PPS).

The five prisoners were identified as Mahdi Assi, from Nablus, Khaled Makhamreh from Hebron, Samer al-Issawi from Jerusalem, Nayef Shawamreh from Hebron and Wa’el Abu Jalboush from Jenin. Another ex-detainee; Na’el al-Bargouti, was sentenced to 30 months in jail. He was also released in 2011 prisoners swap and was re-captured by Israel last June.

According to WAFA, in June 0f 2014, Israel recaptured at least 50 ex-detainees who were released in the 2011 prisoners exchange deal with Hamas. These prisoners, along with hundreds others, remain held either under administrative detention - without indictment or trial - or are still awaiting military court ruling.

The arrests were made based on a 2009 military article that enables Israeli prosecutors to push for reinstating prisoners' original sentences if they commit an offence. In these cases, neither the prisoner nor the lawyer is informed of the evidence that can be used to incarcerate them again.

In 2013, a team of Palestinian lawyers petitioned Israel's high court regarding Article 186 of military order 1651, the regulation that particularly affected those released in the Shalit deal.

Addameer, a local prisoner human rights group, called it an “unjustified” act that “undermines the protection of prisoners and ex-prisoners”.

A total of 63 re-arrested prisoners went on a hunger strike in September 2014 to demand their release; however they remain behind bars until the moment as Israel refuses to discuss their situation, Israeli daily Haaretz reported.

Resident Emad Abu Shamsiyya said several settlers from the Ramat Yeshai illegal outpost, installed on Palestinian property, attacked homes and lands in addition to throwing stones on a number of residents while cursing and shouting at them.

Abu Shamsiyya added that Israeli soldiers, deployed in the area, witnessed the attack but did not attempt to stop or remove the assailants.

Some of the Palestinians who were attacked have been identified as Mirvat Abu Rmeila and her children Rahaf, Lajeen, Lian and Hazem, in addition to members of Abu Markhiyya family.

Picture
Israeli navy ships opened fire, on Sunday morning, on fishing boats in Palestinian territorial waters, in northern Gaza, causing damage to one boat, before the soldiers kidnapped two fishers.

Nizar Ayyash, head of the Palestinian Fishers Syndicate, told the Radio Bethlehem 2000 that the navy kidnapped Hatem Abdul-Rahman Sultan, 33, and Mohammad Amin Sultan, 25, and took them to an unknown destination.

The two were kidnapped after several rounds of live ammunition hit their fishing boat in the Sudaniyya Sea, north of Gaza.

The Israeli navy carries out daily attacks and violations against Palestinian fishers in Gaza territorial waters; the attacks include arrests and confiscation of boats.

The repeated Israeli attacks led to scores of casualties, including several fatalities.

Picture
Four Palestinian administrative prisoners, held in Israeli occupation jails without charge or trial, announced their intents to boycott the Israeli occupation’s Court of Appeal.

The Voice of Prisoners radio quoted sources inside Israeli lock-ups as stating that the prisoners’ decision came in an effort to protest being held administratively, with neither charge nor trial.

The four prisoners were identified as Khalil Awawda, Ahmad Ameira, Raed al-Amala, and Mondher Abu Utan, all natives of the southern West Bank city of al-Khalil.

The protesting detainees also refused that attorneys would speak up for them at Israeli courts, the same source added.
