Head of the Islamic Movement in 1948 Occupied Palestine, Sheikh Raed Salah, at dawn Tuesday slammed an Israeli decision illegalizing the group’s anti-occupation activism.
Sheikh Raed Salah said in a statement that right after the Israeli occupation slapped its ban on the Islamic Movement, police swooped down on 17 of its offices in Umm al-Fahm at the crack of dawn.
Sheikh Salah added that the Israeli occupation police searched the 17 offices and seized a set of documents and devices before they summoned Sheikh Salah and his deputy, Kamal al-Khatib, along with activist Suleiman Ahmad, for interrogation at an Israeli investigation center in Haifa.
“Such measures are oppressive and unacceptable,” Sheikh Salah said, vowing that the Islamic movement will forever keep up its anti-occupation activism and support of Occupied Jerusalem and the holy al-Aqsa Mosque.
“I am very proud of my position as the movement’s leader,” he said. “I will try all possible means to stop Israeli violations against al-Aqsa and Occupied Jerusalem.”
Headed by Sheikh Salah, the Islamic Movement has been active in campaigns and activities staged in support for the holy al-Aqsa Mosque and Occupied Jerusalem.
Declaring the Islamic Movement illegal means that anyone who is a member or works on its behalf can be arrested and subjected to a term in prison.

Army sharpshooters also occupied the rooftops of several homes in the refugee camp, shot and injured 34 Palestinians with live rounds; some of the wounded suffered moderate to severe wounds.
Ahmad Abu al-‘Aish 30
The soldiers fired several gas bombs at Palestinian medics and ambulances, and obstructed many medics trying to provide the needed aid to wounded Palestinians, detaining the ambulances for extended periods before finally allowing them through.
The army also demolished the second floor of a home belonging to the family of detainee Mohammad Abu Shahin, who is held by Israel for allegedly “participating in killing two Israeli settlers, and wounding three others”, in July of this year.
Eyewitnesses said the soldiers invaded the camp while firing dozens of rounds of live ammunition, and advanced towards the home of Abu Shahin, before wiring the home and detonating explosives inside it.
The deaths of the two men makes the total number of Palestinians killed since October 1st eighty eight. Ten Israelis have been killed by Palestinians in the same time period. Over 3,000 Palestinians have been wounded, many of them seriously. More than 1300 Palestinians were shot by live ammunition during this time period, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

Youssef Abu Latifa 17
The Israeli occupation patrols further kidnapped an injured minor from the ambulance.
Eye-witnesses identified the child as 17-year-old Youssef Abu Latifa, who was critically wounded in the Qalandiya clashes.
On-the-spot observers further reported cases of aggressive attacks and heavy discharge of tear gas canisters on the ambulance and paramedical staff in the area.
An eyewitness was quoted by a PIC journalist as reporting that the occupation army cordoned off the area at 2 a.m. before they broke into the camp and knocked down the home of activist Muhammad Shaheen, who Israeli officials claim killed an Israeli settler in June near the West Bank province of Ramallah.
Violent clashes flared up shortly afterwards, resulting in the murder of Abu Eish.
Palestinian media reported that the Israeli occupation troops summoned military reinforcement, fanning the flames of the simmering tension that burst out at the refugee camp.
An Israeli chopper kept, meanwhile, hovering over the territory to ensure the safe backtracking of the army troops.
Shortly after, over 1,000 Israeli soldiers re-rolled into the camp, and sealed it off from all corners, sparking violent clashes. Ashraf al-Shou’ani was shot and killed right on the spot.
The attack culminated in the demolition, without prior notification, of Shaheen’s family home
Recent months have seen a dramatic surge in Israeli demolitions of Palestinian civilian homes, triggering the wrath of a plethora of national and international human rights organizations.
The practice of demolishing the family homes of Palestinian anti-occupation activists has often been criticized as a form of collective punishment against the Palestinian people.
