Picture
An Israeli court on Monday rejected a request filed by the defense lawyer for the early release of Palestinian prisoner Mutasem Raddad, who suffers from bowel cancer.

The medical condition of prisoner Raddad is considered the most serious in Israeli jails. He has been suffering since 2009 from bowel cancer causing him ongoing rectal bleeding and other resultant health problems.

Prisoner Raddad is serving a 20-year prison term in Hadarim jail.

Picture

Israeli forces 'detain 10-year-old Palestinian boy' in Silwan
Picture
Israeli forces detained a 10-year-old Palestinian boy in the Silwan neighborhood on Monday evening, a local information center said.

Majdi Abbasi of the Wadi Hilweh information center told Ma'an that Israeli forces in the Ein al-Luza area of the neighborhood detained 10-year-old Rashid Abu Sarah, took off his shirt, blindfolded him, and took him away in a military jeep.

Israeli forces also fired stun grenades in the neighborhood, Abbasi said.

He did not have further information about the boy's arrest.

An Israeli police spokesman told Ma'an he was not familiar with the incident.

Over the past decade, Israeli forces have arrested, interrogated and prosecuted around 7,000 children between 12 and 17, mostly boys, according to a 2013 report by the UN Children's Fund.

The rate of child arrests is equivalent to "an average of two children each day," the UNICEF report says.

Picture

Qaraqe said that clashes broke out Monday morning between Palestinian prisoners and Israeli Special Forces in section one in Raymond prison.

The clashes erupted when members of the Nahshon forces, the special repression unit in Israeli Prison Services (IPS), brutally stormed section one, which led to a number of injuries among the prisoners.

A state of tension has been prevailing since Sunday in the prison as IPS imposed a set of restrictions on the prisoners’ families.

More than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners are currently held in Raymond prison distributed on six sections.

The detainees were transferred handcuffed to an unknown place, while a military checkpoint was erected at the entrance to the town, the sources added. 

Large-scale raids and arrest campaigns have been ongoing in the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem on daily basis as tensions are still running high due to the Israeli forces and settlers’ violations and crimes against Palestinians and their holy shrines.

HR center accuses Israel of using torture during investigation
Picture
A number of Palestinian prisoners and detainees have been subjected to systematic torture and human rights violations in Israeli investigation centers, the Palestinian human rights network in charge of prisoners’ affairs Anin al-Qaid revealed.

The network pointed out that four detainees, from Bethlehem, were tortured and beaten during their investigation in Maskoubia detention center in occupied Jerusalem.

The four mentioned detainees face alleged charges of planning to assassinate the Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman.

The human rights network stressed the need for the formation of an international investigation committee to deal with such issues and charges and to investigate the Israeli interrogators' use of torture.

For its part, the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) confirmed that the four detainees are indicted with the attempt to assassinate Israel’s Foreign Minister. The suspects are expected to be brought to court on November 24, he added.

Israeli charges against the four detainees contain obvious and intentional exaggerations, the PPS lawyer said.

Israeli media exaggeration of foiling Lieberman’s assassination attempt aims to show up Shin Bet’s successes and to impose the highest possible sentence against the detainees, according to the network’s statement.

The PPS lawyer pointed out that the detainees were subjected since their arrest in August during the Israeli aggression on Gaza to a severe torture in Maskoubia investigation center.

“The detainees suffer several bruises and injuries all over their bodies, in addition to frequent bleeding due to the unbearable torture they were subjected to over the past two months.”

The lawyer clarified that the detainees face serious charges based on general exchange of ideas and thoughts between four citizens developed by Israeli Intelligence Services to be a military cell plots to assassinate Israeli ministers.

In an earlier statement, Israel’s war minister Moshe Ya’alon praised the efforts of the Shin Bet, saying “this is the fourth time since May that we have managed to foil attempts by Hamas cells who are attempting to spearhead terrorist activities in the West Bank and Jerusalem.” 

For his part, Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri refused to confirm or deny the report, saying the Movement had no information on the matter. He noted: “The leaders of the occupation, who are responsible for the killing of women and children and the desecration of holy sites, are legitimate targets.”

IOF mass-arrests, settler vandalism stepped up across O. Jerusalem
Picture
The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) at dawn Monday nabbed a number of  Palestinian civilians in Occupied Jerusalem and heavily assaulted others.

A PIC correspondent quoted by-standers at the scene as reporting that the IOF nabbed four Palestinian young men after having stormed their family homes in Isawiya and Jabal al-Mukabir in Occupied Jerusalem.

Two more youths were abducted by the IOF from Jerusalem’s town of Silwan, south of holy al-Aqsa Mosque.

In a related development, the IOF rounded up 21-year-old Palestinian young lady Shourouk Ayman Abu Rateb, a resident of Um Tuba village and a mother of a two-year-old kid, and kept interrogating her for long hours allegedly for attempting to stab an Israeli occupation soldier at a military checkpoint pitched near the main entrance to the Shuaf’at refugee camp. 

Sources based at the camp further reported the subjection of the Palestinian teenager Omar Fahmi al-Zughir, 18, to heavy beating at the hands of the Israeli light rail guards.

Omar’s father said the bunch of Israeli vandals dragged his son to a nearby bush before they stripped him of his clothes, and searched him in such a remarkably offending manner in the presence of a squad of the Israeli occupation police and border cops. 

Earlier, overnight on Saturday, a gang of fanatic Israeli settlers heavily assaulted a Palestinian civilian from Beit Hanina, north of Occupied Jerusalem, before they hurriedly walked out of the area. 

The Jerusalemite civilian was rushed to a hospital to receive urgent treatment for the wounds he sustained in the assault.

Meanwhile, Raed Abu Bashir, lawyer of the family of Palestinian martyrs Udai and Ghassan Abu Jamal, spoke out against the mounting house demolitions launched by the Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) in Jerusalem’s Jabal al-Makbar.

“Such arbitrary demolitions make part of pre-planned policy of collective punishment pursued by the IOA against Jerusalemites,” he charged.

“Over 760 families in Jabal al-Mukabir are subjected to heavy fines; 280 homes are threatened with demolition and 28% of land tracts are only licensed for construction,” he further charged.

He warned of Israel’s attempts to isolate Occupied Jerusalem from its geo-political milieu and crack down on Palestinian civilians via abduction campaigns and random shooting.

He held Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu and the IOF responsible for the death of Udai and Ghassan Abu Jamal, calling for legal action against such Israeli crimes and returning the bodies of the two Palestinian men.

Earlier, on Wednesday, the Magistrate’s Court turned down the appeals of lawyer Mohammad Mahmoud to return the bodies under the pretext of underway investigation procedures.

For his part, Jerusalem’s Mufti Sheikh Mohammad Hussein urged the IOA to immediately release the youths’ bodies so as to enable the family to carry out the burial rituals as stipulated by the Islamic faith.

“No human being should ever be punished for crimes committed by another person. These families have the right to live in dignity,” he said. “Such Israeli procedures are just intolerable and will only simmer even further the tension rocking Occupied Jerusalem.”

“We are facing a real war waged by the racist Israeli occupation government to grab hold over Jerusalem and enforce a spatio-temporal division on Muslims’ holy al-Aqsa Mosque,” journalist and political analyst Rasem Ubeidat said. 

“Such felonies amount to war crimes. House demolitions are war crimes that do stand in sharp contrast with the Fourth Geneva Convention,” he added.

He further spoke out against Israel’s violation of Muslims’ religious freedom via its frequent sacrilegious assaults and state vandalism on Islamic holy sites and the peaceful Muslim congregation across the Occupied Palestinian territories.

Udai and Ghassan passed away following a retaliation-attack on a Jewish synagogue in Occupied Jerusalem, an attack dubbed by historiographers as a natural retort and expected scenario to Israel’s terrorism on Palestinian civilians and Muslims’ sanctuaries.

IOF kidnaps 17 Palestinians in J'lem, W. Bank

The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Monday kidnapped 17 Palestinians during raids in different areas of occupied Jerusalem, Bethlehem, al-Khalil and Nablus.

In al-Khalil, local sources told the Palestinian information center (PIC) that the IOF kidnapped at dawn today ex-detainee Basem Abdul-Baset from his home.

The IOF also stormed Beit Awwa town and raided several homes before detaining three young men from the same family.

10 other Palestinians, including children, were taken prisoners at dawn during raids on homes in east Jerusalem and its neighborhoods, including Issawiya, Silwan, Jabal Mukkaber and Shuafat, according to the Palestinian prisoner society.

In Bethlehem, the IOF kidnapped two young men from their homes in Husan town. The detainees were identified as Tharwat Hamamera and Ibrahim Hamamera.

Another young man called Adel Dweikat was detained during an IOF arrest campaign in Nablus city, according to local sources.

IOF storms home of a PLC member, arrests his grandson
Picture
The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) violently broke into home of member of the Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC) Ahmad al-Haj in Nablus at dawn Monday. His grandson was nabbed during the raid.

The MP al-Haj’s daughter confirmed to a PIC reporter that IOF soldiers stormed and searched her apartment and her father’s apartment before arresting her son.

The 27-year-old Adel Dweikat, who served 38 months in Israeli jails in two separate arrests, was nabbed during the raid.

IOF soldiers failed more than once to arrest the MP Ahmed al-Haj, 75. They broke into his home seven times since June.

Israeli forces have launched since June a large-scale arrest campaign throughout the West Bank targeting Palestinian MPs and national figures following the kidnapping and killing of three Israeli soldiers in al-Khalil.

Soldiers Kidnap A Palestinian Woman In Jerusalem
Picture
Israeli fanatics march in Jerusalem chanting “death to Arabs"

Israeli soldiers kidnapped, on Sunday evening, a young Palestinian woman at a military roadblock, near the Shu’fat refugee camp, in occupied East Jerusalem.

The kidnapped woman has been as Shorouq Ayman Rateb Abu Teir, 21, years of age.

The Israeli army claimed the woman was kidnapped “after attempting to stab a soldier with a sharp object,” but did not provide any further information about the allegation.

On Sunday at night, dozens of Israeli extremists marched in various roads and alleys of the Old City of occupied East Jerusalem, carrying Israeli flags, and posters of the “temple” while chanting racist slogans such as “death to Arabs," and slogans calling for expelling the Palestinians.

The fanatics were demanding the Israeli army and police to open all gates leading to the Al-Aqsa Mosque to that they can continue to invade it.

During the provocative procession, the police closed various roads and alleys to allow them to march, while keeping the Palestinians from entering the area, and in many cases, preventing them from leaving their homes.
