IOF arrests 2 Palestinians, summons others
Picture
The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) stormed overnight and at dawn Saturday different areas in occupied Jerusalem and West Bank.

Two Palestinians were arrested while several others were summoned for investigation during the raids. Local sources reported that a number of youths in Arraba town near Jenin were detained and investigated before being shortly released.

In Nablus, Israeli forces intensified security restrictions at a military checkpoint near Shavei Shomron settlement west of the city. Several Palestinian vehicles were stopped and searched at the scene.

Similar security restrictions were imposed in Silwan town where Israeli police closed Wadi al-Hilweh road, restricting the locals’ movement. Local residents protested against the Israeli restrictions.

Two Jerusalemites were arrested during the protest before being released at dawn today. Israeli violent raid and search campaigns have continued Saturday morning in the town, leading to heightened tension among the locals.

Similar raids were carried out in other West Bank towns and cities, during which dozens of local youths were summoned for investigation.

Health condition of 2 imprisoned hunger strikers deteriorates
Picture
The health condition of the two Palestinian prisoners Mohamed Balboul and Malek al-Qadhi has dramatically deteriorated due to their continued hunger strike, a rights group warned.

Lawyer of the Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) Khaled Mahajna had on Friday visited the two hunger strikers in the Wolfson Medical Center in Tel Aviv.

Health situation of Balboul, on hunger strike for 58 days, had seriously worsened as he was transferred to the intensive care unit, he pointed out.

Malek al-Qadhi started suffering severe fatigue all over his body as he entered his 50th day of hunger strike. Both hunger strikers refused to take vitamins or to conduct medical tests in protest against their administrative detention, Mahajna added.

The lawyer quoted al-Qadhi as saying that an Israeli jailer violently attacked him four days ago after he demanded to go to the toilet.

Mohamed Balboul began his hunger strike along with his brother Mahmoud on July 4 and 7 respectively in protest against their administrative detention.

The brothers were detained on June 9 and sentenced to administrative detention, shortly before their younger sister Nuran, 16, was released after spending four months in Israeli jail.

Family needs help to know fate of father kidnapped in Nablus
Picture
The family of a Jordanian prisoner hailing from Palestine appealed to human rights groups to intervene to know his fate after his recent detention at a makeshift checkpoint near Nablus city.

Rayda Jalghoum, the wife of prisoner Ibrahim al-Omlah, said that her husband was arrested, with no reason, by Israeli soldiers at a makeshift checkpoint following a visit to his sister's home in the West Bank on August 4, 2016.

According to her, Omlah was with his kids when soldiers intercepted the taxi they were in, questioned him for about an hour on the road, and then rounded him up and took away his cellphones.

At the time, he was detained in Huwara interrogation center and his children were taken back to their aunt's house in Qabalan town after their travel permits were confiscated.

Six days later, his children were able to travel back to Jordan. "We do not know anything about my husband, save that he may be in Holakdar prison.

Neither the Red Cross nor the Prisoner Society were allowed to see him," the wife said. Ibrahim Omlah is originally from the town of Qabalan in Nablus, but he is a citizen of Jordan and lives there.

490 Palestinians, including 70 children and 10 women, were taken prisoners by Israeli military and security forces during last August in different areas of Palestine, including Gaza.

According to a recent report released by the Palestinian Prisoner Center for Studies, 28 of those detainees were arrested or kidnapped from the Gaza Strip.

It added that the young woman, 21, approached the terminal through a lane only dedicated for vehicles, before the soldiers stopped and arrested her, and took her to an interrogation center.

The young woman, from the neighbourhood of al-Eizariya in occupied Jerusalem, was taken by Israeli internal intelligence service Shin Bet for interrogation.

More than 220 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces and settlers. While Israel alleges many of those were attempting to attack Israelis when they were shot, Palestinians and rights groups have disputed Israel's version of events in a number of cases.

Picture
Israeli military sources have reported, late at night Wednesday, that one soldier was shot and injured by Palestinian gunfire, after the army invaded the northern West Bank city of Nablus.

The sources said the soldier suffered a moderate injury, and received the needed treatment before he was moved to an Israeli hospital.

The shots were fired after a number of Israeli military vehicles, and buses, transporting colonists, invaded Nablus and headed towards Joseph’s Tomb, near Balata refugee camp.

Many local youths hurled stones and empty bottles at the invading vehicles, and apparently, a number of armed fighters also opened fire on the military forces, wounding one soldier.

In related news, the Israeli army kidnapped, at dawn Thursday, at least six Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, including three in Hebron. The army claimed the kidnapped Palestinians are members and supporters of Hamas.

Israeli court refuses hunger striker’s appeal
Picture
The Israeli Supreme Court refused Wednesday the appeal submitted by the Palestinian hunger striker Malek al-Qadhi to end his illegal administrative detention.

Palestinian rights group Addameer said that al-Qadhi will continue his open hunger strike that has been ongoing for 46 consecutive days in protest against his administrative detention according to which he is held without charge or trial.

Al-Qadhi is currently held in an Israeli hospital due to the deterioration in his health condition as he stopped taking vitamins or conducting medical tests.

The rights group held the Israeli authorities, Intelligence Service (Shen Bit), and Supreme Court responsible for the hunger striker’s safety. Al-Qadhi, from Bethlehem, was held in administrative detention since his arrest in May 2016.

He was earlier arrested for four months in Israeli jails before being released in April 2016 to be then re-arrested. Israel’s policy of administrative detention, which allows it to detain any citizen without trial or charge, is almost exclusively used against Palestinians and has been widely criticized by rights groups which have accused Israel of using the policy to erode Palestinian political and social life by detaining scores of Palestinians without proof or wrongdoing.

According to Addameer, 7,000 Palestinians are being held in Israeli prisons, 750 of whom are being held under administrative detention.
