Israeli police arrest Jerusalemite child
Picture
The Israeli police arrested Tuesday a Palestinian child from Qalandia refugee camp north of occupied Jerusalem, after carrying out large-scale raid and search campaign throughout the city.

Qalandia media center affirmed that the child Osama Hamed was arrested from his house near Qalandia refugee camp and taken to unknown detention center.

On the other hand, violent clashes broke out in Shufat refugee camp Tuesday afternoon between local youths and Israeli policemen who violently stormed the camp.

Spokesman for Fatah Movement in Shufat camp Thaer Fasfous affirmed that the clashes erupted when Israeli police forces stormed the camp amid heavy fire of teargas bombs and sound grenades at a local school run by UNRWA.

Dozens of teargas suffocation cases were reported during the clashes. Along the same line, Israeli forces stormed Issawiya town east of the occupied city and deployed throughout its neighborhoods.

Also on Tuesday, Israeli police released two Palestinian youths shortly after their arrest in the nearby Palestinian neighborhood of Jabal al-Mukabbir in connection with an anti-occupation attack that took place in the early morning hours.

Israeli media sources said Tuesday morning that two settlers were moderately injured after being attacked by two masked young men who managed to flee the scene.

Israeli policemen were deployed in the area, assisted by helicopters, searching for the suspects. Israeli police have carried out almost-daily raid and search campaigns throughout occupied Jerusalem, arresting dozens of youths, women, elderly people, and even children in an attempt to suppress the ongoing Jerusalem Intifada.

Israeli army indicts Palestinian minor allegedly involved in Gaza tunnels
Picture
A Palestinian minor was indicted on Tuesday morning in Israel’s Beer Sheva District Court for allegedly providing assistance in the protection of Hamas-built tunnels in the besieged Gaza Strip, the Israeli army announced after an Israeli authorities-issued gag order was lifted on the case.

The Israeli army said the minor, a resident of the Jebalya refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip, was active in Hamas’ northern Gaza Strip Brigade and carried out military operations on Israeli forces. The statement alleged that most of his training was geared towards "infiltration, entry into buildings, and the detonation of explosive charges as part of a concept that the next combat would be on Israeli territory."

He also took part in planting explosives in and around Hamas-built tunnels and stored additional explosives in his home -- allegedly to use in the event Israeli forces entered the tunnels, the statement added.

Israeli forces detained the young Palestinian on April 6 after he attempted to cross the security fence into Israel from the blockaded coastal territory. He is allegedly "one of a several militants currently being investigated by the ISA (Israel Securities Authority) and who are revealing updated internal information about Hamas's intensive tunnel digging activity."

Israeli security said they acquired “extensive” information on Hamas’ tunnel activities during their investigation, including information on emergency tunnel routes and the location of several tunnel shafts.

The identity of the minor and the details of his sentence has yet to be released by the Israeli authorities. An Israeli army spokesperson told Ma'an she expects his identity will be revealed in the next few days.

The unidentified minor is the second alleged Hamas operative detained over suspected involvement in the tunnel crossings in the last week, following four consecutive days of Israeli aerial assaults on the besieged enclave.

In less than a month, Israeli forces claimed to have uncovered the first two tunnels crossing from the Gaza Strip into Israel since Israel's devastating offensive on the small Palestinian territory in 2014.

There have been reports in recent months that Hamas has expanded its tunnel network -- used mainly for military purposes in the northern Gaza Strip and smuggling in the south.

Israeli officials have accused Hamas of "preparing" for another war with Israel and have threatened retaliatory measures against the Gaza Strip as a whole. However, despite Hamas' inflammatory rhetoric against Israel, the movement insisted Friday it does not call for a new war with Israel.

Driver who helped Jaffa terrorist charged with negligent homicide
Picture
Scene of the attack in Jaffa

Mohamed Awida drove terrorist Bashar Masalha to Jaffa, where the latter went on a stabbing spree, killing an American and wounding 11 others; harsh charge comes as deterrent to other drivers smuggling illegal workers into Israel.

Mohamed Awida, 30, who drove terrorist Bashar Masalha to Jaffa where the latter went on a stabbing spree that ended with the death of American Tyler Force, was charged on Tuesday with negligent homicide and with managing a network transporting illegal workers into Israel.

According to the indictment, the Palestinian resident of Jerusalem has been driving illegal workers into Israel once a week for close to a year. For each passenger, Awida received NIS 150-200. Masalha, a resident of Qalqilya, used to ride with Awida once a week.

On the day of the attack, Awida transported the terrorist and five other illegal workers into Israel. He dropped the others in the Triangle Area while Masalha was dropped off near the mosque in Jaffa, from where the terrorist began his stabbing spree, stabbing Force to death and wounding 11 others.


According to the indictment, Awida was negligent and caused death by "driving hundreds of illegal workers into crowded population centers inside the borders of the State of Israel without having checked or known what tools they were carrying," noting that "he should have expected that a terrorist could be among the hundreds of residents of the territories that he drove into Israel who will commit an attack and cause the death and injury of people."

Charging an illegal workers' drive for negligent homicide is unusual, but the State Attorney's Office sought to send a deterring message to drivers of illegal workers that they are responsible for the people they smuggle into Israel.

The driver who transported the three terrorists who committed an attack at the Nablus Gate in Jerusalem, killing Border Policewoman Hadar Cohen, was also charged with negligent homicide. The terrorists told the driver they were on their way to work even though they were not dressed accordingly, which should have made him suspicious.

Palestinian prisoner suspends hunger strike
Picture
The Palestinian prisoner Majdi Yasin suspended his hunger strike after reaching an agreement with the Israeli prosecution to end his interrogation.

Family sources affirmed to the PIC reporter that their son has ended his hunger strike that was launched immediately after his arrest on April 26, 2016 at Karama crossing while on his way to Jordan.

Majdi’s hunger strike was launched in protest against his arbitrary arrest, the family pointed out. The family added that he was arrested while being en route to Jordan to travel from there to Sweden, which he holds its citizenship.

For its part, the PA committee for prisoners and Ex-prisoners affirmed that 33-year-old Majdi suspended his hunger strike.

According to the reached agreement, Majdi is scheduled to be transferred from Petah Tikva interrogation center to prison and to be brought to court next Tuesday.

Hunger striker Janazra refuses to see Red Cross visitors
Picture
Palestinian prisoner Sami al-Janazra, who has been on hunger strike for more than two months, refused to see visitors from the Red Cross in Soroka hospital after his police guards insisted on not uncuffing his hands and legs.

According to the Palestinian Prisoner Society (PPS), the jailers deprived Janazra of his minimum rights by their refusal to let him meet his visitors from the Red Cross without any physical restraints.

The PPS lawyer said that the body of the hunger striker became very weak after he lost a lot of his weight as a result of his refusal to take any vitamins or fluids.

Janazra, from al-Fawwar refugee camp in al-Khalil, was arrested on November 15, 2015 and since then he has been in administrative detention, with no indictment or trial.

Israeli Soldiers Kidnap 14 Palestinians In The West Bank
Picture
The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) has reported that Israeli soldiers have kidnapped, overnight and on Tuesday at dawn, at least fourteen Palestinians, including several children, in different parts of the occupied West Bank.

The PPS said the soldiers invaded several communities in the Ramallah and al-Biereh District, in the central West Bank, searched many homes and kidnapped four Palestinians, identified as Cristiano Sam Zahran, 16, Saif Rasem Hussein, 17, Hasan Ahmad Antoush, 16, from Deir Abu Mashal town, and Hazem al-Qawasma, 28.

The soldiers also invaded homes in Qotna and al-‘Ezariyya towns, near occupied Jerusalem, and kidnapped Wisam Mohammad Houshiyya, Hasan Mustafa Houshiyya, Mohammad Yousef Shamasna, Mohammad Omar Roumi, 17.

In addition, the soldiers kidnapped Ahmad Mazen Abu Khdeir, 14, in Shu’fat neighborhood, Jerusalem.

Furthermore, the soldiers kidnapped Bara’ Nawwaf al-‘Amer, 21, from the northern West bank district of Nablus, and Hamza Fathi Qar’awi, 30, from Ein Shams refugee camp, in the northern West Bank district of Tulkarem.

The PPS also said that the soldiers kidnapped Mohammad Taher ‘Asayra, 49, from ‘Azzoun town, in the northern West Bank district of Qalqilia, Emad Yousef Sheikh, 16, from Marah Rabah village, in Bethlehem, and Shaher Yahya Abu Jheishe, in the southern West Bank district of Hebron.

Israeli court convicts Ahmed Manasra of attempted murder
Picture
The Israeli district court in Occupied Jerusalem convicted 14-year-old Ahmed Manasra on Tuesday of attempting to murder Israelis in a settlement last year.

Manasra was found guilty by the court of carrying out a stabbing attack on October 12, 2015 in the illegal settlement of Pisgat Zeev in east Jerusalem.

Manasra could face a maximum sentence of up to 20 years in prison, according to the kid's lawyers.

Ahmad, who was 13 at the time of the attack, sustained serious wounds after an Israeli driver hit him with his car following the alleged stabbing.

Video footage which went viral showed the Palestinian boy lying in pain on the ground after being hit by the car, while an Israeli bystander cursing him in Arabic with a foreign accent and another tells the police officer to shoot him.

Manasra’s cousin, 15-year-old Hasan Manasra, was shot dead at the scene of the attack. His body has since been withheld by Israeli security authorities, although a recent Israeli court ruling ordered his body be handed over to his family.

Manasra’s interrogation was also caught on camera. Last November, in a widely shared video release, Israeli police officers appear to be verbally abusing Manasra and intimidating him into confessing to attempting to murder Jews and aiding an enemy at the time of war.

According to that video, Manasra was visibly traumatized, crying, hitting his own head, and repeating "I do not remember" before breaking down in tears.

The child Ahmad Manasra…continuously suffering since 7 months ago

The District Court convicted on Tuesday 14-year old Ahmad Saleh Manasra with “two counts of attempted murder and possession of a knife” in reference to carrying out a stabbing attack last October in the settlement of Pisgat Zi’ev.

Lawyer Tarek Barghouth from the Ministry of Prisoners explained that the District Court decided to convict the child Manasra with two counts of attempted murder and possession of a knife in the settlement of Pisgat Zi’ev north of Jerusalem when he carried out a stabbing attack along with his 15-year old cousin Martyr Hasan Khaled Manasra which led to the injury of two settlers.

Barghouth added that there are contradictions in the conviction of Ahmad Manasra which did not rely on the facts.

Barghouth also added that the court scheduled a session on 11/7/2016 for the sentencing of Manasra.

Ahmad Manasra

On October 12th, 2015 Ahmad and his cousin Hasan went to the settlement of Pisgat Zi’ev near their homes in Beit Hanina after they had left school; Ahmad was in 8th grade.

He was arrested while bleeding in the streets of the settlement after being critically injured as he was run-over and assaulted by settlers. He was also verbally assaulted while lying on the ground and was not provided with any kind of treatment despite his urgent need for it. After several days in Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital, he was transferred to an internal institution in “Yarka” in the city of Akko.

These institutions are similar to prisons and children arrested for security cases are detained and treated differently from the rest of the detainees. Visits are limited to certain people and the children are not allowed to leave the institution even during holidays. Last month, the duration of detaining Manasra in this institution was extended for three more months.

Last November, a video was leaked from the interrogation room where Manasra was being interrogated. The video showed that extent of psychological pressure and intimidation Manasra was subject to during the interrogation in order to extract confessions. The interrogator was yelling and insulting the divine self in order to provoke Manasra.

During the interrogation, they showed him videos of him and his cousin Hasan and the interrogation was focused on him confessing to carrying out a stabbing attack against settlers. Ahmad cried a lot during the interrogations and insisted on not remembering anything about the incident; the interrogators continued questioning him for several hours despite crying.

The video showed three officers interrogating the child Ahmad Manasra on charges of attempting to carry out a stabbing attack with his cousin Hasan who was shot by the Israeli soldiers and passed away immediately.

Haaretz added that one of the women was injured in her upper body and extremities, while the other woman was injured in her upper body.
