While brutal force has been used to create Zionist Israel and sustain it thus far, Zionist claims to Palestine are false. Actually, from the five thousand years of known written human history, there has been a continuous Palestinian-Canaanite presence in the Holy Land. Despite the Zionist false claims, the ancient Israelites ruled part of the land for only 85 years (during the reign of Prophets David and Solomon , peace be upon them, and Solomon's son).
After that, the Egyptians conquered Palestine-Canaan in 925 BC, followed by Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans, before the Arab Muslim rule, starting from 636 AD.
By the Time Jesus, peace be upon him, started his mission, the three population groups of Canaanites, Palestinians, and Israelites were melted together in religion and language. Most of them became Christians when Constantine converted in 313 AD. Then, most of them became Muslims in the 7th and 8th centuries AD.
So, Palestinian Muslims, Christians, and Jews are the ones who have the right to claim descent from ancient Israelites, Palestinians, and Canaanites, not Zionists from other continents.
No matter what the Zionists and their supporters do, they cannot change the will of God, Who promised the Holy Land to Abraham and his descendants, basically the Palestinian Muslims and Christians.
No matter how much persecution and aggression the Zionists and their supporters inflict upon the Palestinian people, they will never be able to force them out of the Holy Land, which Allah, praise to Him, promised for them, and kept His promise ever since.
This is a necessary brief background to understand the US-Backed Zionist Israeli continuous wars against the Arab nation generally, and the Palestinian people in particular, which included the wars of 1948, 1956, 1967, 1978, 1982, the brutal crushing of the two Uprisings (1987-1993 and 2000-2004), 2009, 2012, 2014, 2021, and the current genocidal war on Gaza (Since October 7, 2023), which has culminated a blockade of Gaza since 2007. In addition, the Israeli occupation and apartheid regime launched so many covert operations, raids, and air strikes on many Arab states since 1948.
The following news stories are just examples, not a systematic record, of the Israeli occupation government abuse, mistreatment, and violations of Palestinian human rights, on daily basis.

Impacts and Aspects of the Israeli Genocidal War on the Gaza Strip***
Dozens of Yemenis killed in Israeli airstrikes
Wednesday 10-September-2025
SANAA, (PIC)
The Yemeni Ministry of Health affiliated with Ansarullah ('Houthis) announced that 35 people were killed and 131 others injured by the Israeli genocidal airstrikes on San'a and the Al-Jawf province.
In response to the attack, Mahdi El-Mashat, head of the Supreme Political Council of Ansarullah, vowed retaliation. According to Israeli broadcaster KAN, the assault involved 30 bombs dropped by 10 warplanes, targeting 15 sites across Yemen.
'Houthi media outlets reported casualties at the Military Guidance Headquarters in central San'a. The strikes also resulted in deaths and injuries among journalists, particularly at the offices of the “26 September” and “Al-Yemen” newspapers, which were also targeted.
In Al-Jawf governorate, the Civil Status Authority building in the city of Al-'Hazm was also bombed.
Mahdi El-Mashat, head of the Ansar Allah Supreme Political Council, called the Israeli assault a “failed act of aggression” and said that a response is inevitable. Military spokesperson Ya'hya Saree' echoed the warning, stating that “this brutal attack will not go unanswered or unpunished.”
He also denied Israeli claims of targeting missile launch platforms and said Yemen’s air defenses had responded to the attacking warplanes, thwarting most of the assault.
Nasr al-Din Amer, deputy head of the Houthi media authority, said the Israeli airstrikes were limited to San'a and Al-Jawf, and that explosions heard in other provinces were due to air defense activity.
'Hazim El-Asad, a member of the group’s political bureau, accused Israel of deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure and residential areas in San'a. He described the attack as a “desperate attempt by a bankrupt regime to fabricate a media victory,” reaffirming the Houthis’ unwavering commitment to supporting Gaza “regardless of the sacrifices.”
The Yemeni Oil Company reported that the airstrikes hit a medical sector fuel station on Sixtieth Street in San'a. 'Houthi media also said the Central Bank branch in Al-Hazm was targeted.
According to Reuters, the Israeli assault also struck the Yemeni Ministry of Defense, and residents reported that a command-and-control site between two mountains was hit. The full extent of the damage remains unclear.

For the second time: Israeli drone attacks Global Sumud Flotilla off Tunisian coast
Wednesday 10-September-2025
GAZA, (PIC)
An Israeli drone attacked the largest vessel in the Global Sumud Flotilla, bound for the Gaza Strip, in the early hours of Wednesday morning, as it sailed off the coast of Tunisia. The strike caused a fire to break out on board.
According to media sources, firefighting teams and the ship’s crew were later able to bring the blaze under control, and all members of the Flotilla crew survived the attack.
The Global Coordination Committee for the Sumud Flotilla confirmed that the Spanish ship Alma was the vessel targeted while docked in Sidi Bou Said port, Tunisia.
Second drone attack in two days
On Tuesday, the Sumud Flotilla announced that another boat had been hit late Monday night by a drone strike, sparking a fire onboard. The vessel had been sailing near Sidi Bou Said with six people on board at the time of the attack.
In a statement shared via Instagram, the Sumud Flotilla, which departed from Barcelona, Spain as part of a mission to break the Israeli blockade on Gaza, said the drone caused material damage to the vessel and denounced the attack as an “act of aggression aimed at obstructing its humanitarian mission.”
Mission continues despite threats
The drone strikes come as the Flotilla continues preparing to head toward besieged Gaza, in a major international initiative intended to challenge the longstanding blockade.
Despite the escalating threats, the Flotilla’s organizers confirmed during a press conference in Tunisia that the mission will sail to Gaza as planned on Wednesday, regardless of circumstances. They added that an official investigation into the attacks is ongoing but affirmed that the incident will not deter the mission or change its course.
Organizers also reported that Tunisian authorities denied authorization for the press conference, forcing them to hold it outdoors in the street.
UN support and international participation
UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Francesca Albanese, expressed support for the Flotilla and affirmed that the drone attack will not derail the mission. She praised participants for standing in solidarity with the people of Gaza.
The Flotilla is expected to reach Gaza by mid-September, following two previous attempts, blocked by Israeli forces in June and July, to deliver aid by sea.
The Sumud Flotilla includes activists, European lawmakers, and public figures, such as former Barcelona mayor Ada Colau, Portuguese MP Mariana Mortágua, and Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg.
The mission is coordinated by a coalition of groups including the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, the Global Gaza Movement, the Sumud Convoy, and Malaysia’s Nusantara Solidarity Organization.
Together, they have assembled hundreds of participants from 44 countries, sailing aboard more than 70 ships loaded with medical supplies and humanitarian aid, the largest such Flotilla to head toward Gaza since maritime solidarity missions began.
Wael Nawar, a member of the Joint Coordination Committee for Palestine, stated that over 1,000 participants from 44 countries are preparing to sail, despite looming threats. He confirmed that the Flotilla is ready for all scenarios, including bureaucratic obstacles, Israeli drone attacks, arrests by Israeli soldiers, or safe arrival in Gaza.

Israeli airstrikes target Syrian military sites in Homs and Latakia
Tuesday 9-September-2025
DAMASCUS, (PIC)
Israeli warplanes launched airstrikes at dawn Tuesday on the Syrian Air Defense College, near the city of 'Homs, and the military barracks in Saqoubeen, north of Al-Ladthiqiya (Latakia), Syria.
Syrian media reported that Israeli warplanes also carried out a strike near the city of Palmyra in central Syria.
Syria strongly condemned the Israeli aerial assault, which targeted multiple sites in the provinces of Homs and Latakia, calling it a blatant violation of international law and the principles of the UN Charter.
In a statement on Tuesday morning, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates affirmed that these attacks constitute a flagrant breach of Syrian sovereignty and a direct threat to its national and regional stability. The ministry described the strikes as part of a broader pattern of aggressive escalation pursued by Israel against Syrian territory.
The Ministry reiterated Syria’s unequivocal rejection of any attempts to undermine its sovereignty or compromise its national security.
It called on the international community, particularly the UN Security Council, to shoulder its legal and moral responsibilities by taking a clear and firm stance to end these repeated assaults and ensure respect for Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Since the fall of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime in December of last year, Israel has continued to violate Syrian sovereignty, despite efforts by the new Syrian administration to restore security, recover from the war’s aftermath, and focus on economic development.
According to Anadolu Agency, Israel has previously attempted to justify its repeated aggression by claiming it seeks to turn southern Syria into a “demilitarized zone,” in addition to its frequent interventions under the pretext of “protecting the Druze.”
On December 8, 2024, Israel announced the collapse of the disengagement agreement and its military occupation of the demilitarized buffer zone in the Golan Heights (southwest), most of which it has occupied for decades.
The disengagement agreement was signed between Israel and Syria on May 31, 1974, ending the October 6, 1973 war and the subsequent war of attrition on the Syrian front.

Five people killed, others injured in Israeli attacks on Lebanon
Monday 8-September-2025
BEIRUT, (PIC)
At least five people were martyred and six others injured in a wave of Israeli airstrikes in eastern and southern Lebanon on Monday, in the latest violation of a ceasefire deal in place since November 2024.
Local media said that Israeli warplanes launched at least eight airstrikes on Al-Biqaa' and El-Hirmil districts, in eastern Lebanon.
Seven airstrikes targeted the outskirts of El-Hirmil, while another one hit the outskirts of Al-Labwa village in eastern Lebanon, the state news agency NNA reported.
One of the wounded people was a shepherd. A drone reportedly targeted him on the outskirts of Mays town in southern Lebanon.
An Israeli military statement claimed the attacks targeted military facilities and weapon storage sites used by Hezbollah. There was no immediate comment from 'Hizbullah on the Israeli claim.

El-Bursh warns forced displacement could trigger famine, epidemics, and total health collapse
Wednesday 10-September-2025
GAZA, (PIC)
Dr. Muneer El-Bursh, director-general of the Ministry of Health in Gaza, warned Tuesday that the forced displacement of residents from Gaza City would lead to the collapse of the health system, cut off medical supplies across the Strip, and spark a humanitarian and epidemiological disaster.
Al-Bursh said the Israeli occupation continues to bomb residential towers and homes, leaving thousands of families homeless and driving them southward under siege conditions that block food and medicine, while famine and disease steadily spread.
Speaking to Al Jazeera, he reported that four more Palestinians had died from hunger in the last 24 hours, raising the total famine-related death toll to 394, including 140 children. “The humanitarian tragedy is worsening amid the absence of any serious international response,” he said.
He stressed that an immediate ceasefire and safe humanitarian corridors are urgent to save lives, calling for shelter for the displaced and an end to targeting residential towers, which has resulted in destroying tents and temporary shelters.
The Gaza health sector, he added, is facing “enormous challenges” from forced displacement. Most hospitals in the north and center are out of service, while southern hospitals are operating at more than triple capacity. Bed occupancy has exceeded 300 percent, with no ability to absorb new cases.
Any further displacement, al-Bursh warned, would sever medical supply chains, since central warehouses for medicines and vaccines are in Gaza City. “This risks destroying vaccines and cutting off life-saving treatments for kidney and heart patients, while halting surgical operations,” he said.
He revealed that about 200 intensive care patients, including premature babies in incubators and patients on ventilators, cannot be transferred. Many could die if forced to flee or left without care under the blockade.
El-Bursh described patients and the wounded walking long distances or using improvised means to reach southern hospitals. Many die en route because of the severe shortage of functioning ambulances, which struggle to move under heavy bombardment.
He also warned of deadly outbreaks inside overcrowded shelters lacking sanitation. So far, 106 cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome and 11 related deaths have been recorded, with fears of new infectious diseases emerging due to the mass displacement.
According to El-Bursh, Israeli forces have killed 1,671 health workers since the war began, including doctors, nurses, and pharmacists. Ambulances have been targeted and health workers detained, threatening total collapse of services if the escalation continues.
He said medical staff work under immense psychological pressure, grappling with the loss of family members while being unable to provide care to their patients, all while facing daily threats to their lives inside hospitals.
Despite the danger, El-Bursh affirmed that Gaza’s medical staff have decided to stay and resist. He cited the “Shrouds March” held by city residents in defiance of displacement, declaring their preference to die in Gaza rather than leave.
His warnings come as Israeli occupation forces continue a destructive assault on Gaza City’s residential towers, amid UN and international concerns that any new mass displacement would trigger the total collapse of Gaza’s humanitarian system.
With direct US support, Israel has carried out genocide in Gaza since October 7, 2023, killing more than 64,000 Palestinians, wounding 163,000, and displacing hundreds of thousands. The siege has created a famine that has already claimed 393 lives, including 140 children.

Qatar: No talks amid Israeli attack, we reserve the right to respond
Tuesday 9-September-2025
DOHA, (PIC)
Qatari Prime Minister, Shaikh Mu'hammed Bin 'Abdul Ra'hman Al-Thani, stated on Tuesday evening that no negotiations are currently underway regarding a deal related to the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip, following an Israeli attack on the Qatari territory. This comes despite active negotiations previously taking place at the request of the United States.
Speaking at a press conference, the Qatari Foreign Minister said Qatar had been subjected to a treacherous Israeli attack, stressing that Qatar will not tolerate any violation of its sovereignty and reserves the right to respond to this blatant aggression.
He revealed that the United States informed Qatar of the Israeli strike ten minutes after it occurred and confirmed that Israel used weapons undetectable by radar systems during the assault.
Sheikh Mohammed described the incident as state terrorism and a deliberate attempt to destabilize regional security and stability. He said the attack not only violated international law but also crossed all moral and ethical lines.
He further stated, “Today’s attack sends a message to the region that a rogue player is operating with political recklessness. Netanyahu is driving the region toward irreparable damage.”
The Qatari Prime Minister labelled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a rogue actor practicing state terrorism, saying the attack on Qatar could only be described as an act of betrayal.
Majed Al-Ansari, spokesperson for the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs, confirmed that a formal message was delivered to the UN Security Council and that relevant Qatari authorities have begun deliberating on the appropriate response.
In a statement to Al Jazeera, Al-Ansari added, “Israel’s behavior is dragging the entire world to the edge of catastrophe. Netanyahu is leading Israel into rogue state status.”
He emphasized that the treacherous attack targeted Hamas’s negotiating delegation in a mediator country, proving once again that Israel is acting as a rogue state in clear violation of diplomatic norms and international law.

Saudi Crown Prince says Gaza part of Palestinian Territory, Gazans’ rights are indisputable
RIYADH, September 10, 2025 (WAFA) –
Saudi Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mu'hammed Bin Salman said on Wednesday that Gaza was an integral part of the Palestinian Territory and that the Gazans’ rights were indisputable.
Speaking on behalf of King Salman Bin 'Abdul 'Azeez at the opening of the ninth session of the Shoura Council, he emphasized that Gazans’ rights cannot be denied by any aggression or eliminated by any threat.
Highlighting Saudi Arabia’s commitment to the Arab Peace Initiative, originally launched in 2002, Saudi Crown Prince bin Salman stated that the initiative offers an unprecedented path to realize the establishment of the Palestinian state.
He stated that Saudi Arabia’s efforts led to an increase in the number of countries recognizing the State of Palestine, and cited the recent International Conference for the Implementation of the Two-State Solution in New York as a success that bolstered international consensus on implementation of the initiative.
Bin Salman condemned Israel’s brutal attacks on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and its persistence in committing the crimes of starvation and forced displacement.
He condemned the Israeli occupation authorities’ assaults and slammed Israel’s assault on Qatar as a "brutal aggression”, urging the Arab and Islamic states as well as the international community to take action to deter the occupation authorities from persisting in their "criminal practices" that destabilize regional security.

Saudi Arabia rejects ‘brutal’ Israeli attack on Qatar, Crown Prince says
Arab News, September 10, 2025
RIYADH -
Regional and international action needed to confront such aggression and deter Israel from criminal acts that threaten regional security and stability, he tells Shoura Council He also highlights Kingdom’s support for Syria, as well as the success of continuing efforts to diversify the Saudi economy and reduce its dependence on oil
Saudi Arabia rejects and condemns Israeli attacks in the region, including the “brutal aggression” against Qatar on Tuesday, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said.
Israeli authorities attempted to kill the political leaders of Hamas with an airstrike on Doha. The attack drew condemnation from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE and the EU, and risks derailing Gaza ceasefire talks.
In an annual address to the Shoura Council on Wednesday, delivered on behalf of King Salman, the crown prince said Arab, Islamic and international action is needed to confront such aggression.
International measures are also required to deter the Israeli military from its criminal practices that threaten the security and stability of the region, he added.
“We will stand with Qatar without limit in all its actions, and we will harness all our capabilities to achieve this,” the prince said.
“We also condemn the continued brutal attacks against the Palestinian people in Gaza and the persistence of the crimes of starvation and forced displacement.
“The land of Gaza is Palestinian, and the rights of its people are inalienable and cannot be taken away by aggression or nullified by threats. Our position remains unwavering: to protect this right and work diligently to prevent its violations."
“The Arab Peace Initiative, launched by the Kingdom in 2002 and implemented internationally through the perspective of a two-state solution, represents today an unprecedented path to achieving a Palestinian state.”
The Kingdom’s intensive efforts toward achieving this have borne fruit, he said, resulting in more countries officially recognizing the State of Palestine, and the High-level International Conference for the Peaceful Settlement of the Question of Palestine and the Implementation of the Two-State Solution, which took place in New York in July and has garnered unprecedented momentum.
Regarding Syria, the crown prince said the Kingdom had implemented several initiatives, including successful efforts to lift international sanctions on the country, and support for moves to ensure its territorial integrity and rebuild its economy.
“We hope for stability in Lebanon, Yemen and Sudan,” he added.
Turning to the Kingdom’s economy, the crown prince said Saudi Arabia continues to diversify and affirm its ability to reduce its dependence on oil.
“For the first time in our history, non-oil activities have achieved 56 percent of the gross domestic product, which has reached levels exceeding SR4.5 trillion ($1.2 trillion),” he added.
“All of this, and other achievements, have made the Kingdom a global hub attracting diverse activities. Perhaps the fact that 660 international companies have chosen the Kingdom as their regional headquarters, exceeding the 2030 target, reflects the achievements in infrastructure and the level of technical services, confirming the strength of the Saudi economy and its broad future prospects.”

Death toll across Gaza Strip surges to 64,656, over 163,503 injured
GAZA, September 10, 2025 (WAFA, PIC) –
At least 41 Palestinians were killed (including 2 recovered bodies) and 184 others were injured in the Gaza Strip over the last 24 hours as a result of the ongoing Israeli genocide in the region, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza.
The Ministry confirmed that the Palestinian death toll from the Israeli onslaught since October 2023 has risen to 64,656 fatalities, with an additional 163,503 people sustaining injuries. The majority of the victims are women and children.
In its statement, the Ministry noted that among those who reached hospitals in the last 24 hours were 12 aid seekers while 30 were injured, raising the total number of aid-related martyrs to 2,456 and injuries to over 17,861.
Hospitals in Gaza also recorded 5 new deaths in the past 24 hours due to famine and malnutrition, including one child. This brings the total number of those killed due to starvation to to 404, among them 141 children.
The Ministry added that the cumulative toll of martyrs and injuries since Israel breached the ceasefire agreement on March 18, 2025, to the present stands at 12,098 martyrs and 51,462 injuries.
Emergency services are still unable to reach many casualties and dead bodies trapped under the rubble or scattered on roads across the war-torn enclave, as Israeli occupation forces continue to target ambulance and civil defense crews, according to the health authorities.
Israel's genocidal onslaught continues undeterred despite calls from the United Nations Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.

Day 705: Key updates on Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza
Wednesday 10-September-2025
GAZA, (PIC)
For the 705th consecutive day, Israeli occupation forces continue their genocidal war on the Gaza Strip through relentless aerial and artillery bombardment on Wednesday. The campaign, carried out with full US political and military backing, continues under deafening international silence and unprecedented global failure to protect civilians.
The PIC correspondents report that Israel has launched dozens of airstrikes, committed new massacres, and further deepened the suffering of over two million displaced people who now face severe famine conditions.
Latest developments
Israeli forces have killed multiple civilians across the Gaza Strip since early Wednesday morning, according to medical sources.
An Israeli drone struck the minaret of Yaffa Mosque in western Deir al-Balah three separate times.
One martyr arrived at Sheikh Radwan Clinic after an Israeli strike in the Sheikh Radwan “Bridge” area.
Three members of the Abu Sharia family were killed when Israeli forces targeted a tent at the Finance Junction in western Gaza City.
Israeli forces detonated a drone in the courtyard of a home across from Yaffa Mosque in Deir al-Balah.
Israeli warplanes launched airstrikes on the Shuja’iyya neighborhood in eastern Gaza City this morning.
Overnight, Gaza City was bombarded by warplanes, and Israeli quadcopter drones opened fire on homes in the Old City.
According to Gaza’s Ministry of Health, the Israeli onslaught, backed unequivocally by the US, has so far resulted in 64,605 Palestinians killed, 163,319 injured, over 9,000 missing, a famine that has claimed hundreds of lives, and over 2 million people forcibly displaced amid widespread destruction.
Children have become deliberate targets in this war. Over 20,000 children and 12,500 women have been killed, including 8,990 mothers. More than 1,000 infants were killed, 450 of whom were born during the war and later killed, highlighting the extreme vulnerability of those targeted.
Since Israel broke the March 18, 2025 ceasefire agreement, over 12,059 people have been killed and 51,278 wounded.
Following the May 27 Israeli policy shift turning aid distribution points into deadly ambushes, 2,444 more civilians were killed, over 17,831 wounded, and 45 reported missing. This was coupled with the use of the so-called “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation”, an Israeli-American initiative rejected by the UN, as a tool to impose submission and justify killing under the guise of humanitarian aid.

Five Palestinians die due to the Israeli-imposed starvation and acute malnutrition in Gaza
GAZA, September 10, 2025 (WAFA) –
Medical sources in the Gaza Strip announced the deaths of five Palestinians, including a child, in the past 24 hours, due to the Israeli-imposed starvation and malnutrition in the Gaza Strip.
This brings the total number of the starvation-related fatalities to 404, including 141 children.
Cases of malnutrition and famine are arriving at hospitals in Gaza at any given moment. Some 900,000 children in Gaza are suffering from hunger, 70,000 of whom have entered the malnutrition stage.
The ongoing humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip continues to worsen, due to the blockade and shortages of food and medical supplies. The severe famine is intertwined with the genocidal war waged by Israel since October 7, 2023.
Since March 2, 2025, the occupying authorities have closed all crossings with the Gaza Strip, blocking the entry of most food and medical aid, further accelerating the spread of famine across the territory.

Israeli occupation forces detain Head of Islamic Cemeteries Care Committee
Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), September 10, 2025 (WAFA) –
Israeli occupation forces this evening detained the Director of the Islamic Cemeteries Care Committee in Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), A'hmed Al-Dajani, while he was present on Salah al-Din Street in the city of Jerusalem and led him to an unknown destination.
This detention is part of ongoing Israeli policies targeting Palestinian religious figures in Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), aimed at dismantling local leadership and weakening institutions that safeguard the city's religious and historical identity.
Islamic cemeteries in Jerusalem have previously been subjected to repeated violations, raids, and attempts at land seizure and Judaization, sparking outrage among Palestinian citizens and religious institutions.
These cemeteries are considered an integral part of Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem)’s religious and historical heritage and are overseen by the Islamic Cemeteries Care Committee, which works to protect and maintain sacred sites from any form of aggression.
They contain the graves of generations of Palestinians and important religious scholars, making any attempt to encroach upon or alter them a direct threat to the city's religious and historical identity.

Israeli occupation forces impose heavy fines on storeowners in Kafr 'Iqab and Qalandya
Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), September 10, 2025 (WAFA) –
Israeli occupation forces on Wednesday imposed heavy fines on Palestinian storeowners in Kafr 'Iqab neighborhood and Qalandya refugee camp, on the northern most outskirts of Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), according to WAFA correspondent.
He said that a sizable army force and municipal crews barged their way into the neighborhood and the refugee camp, effectively sealing off the main road connecting Ramallah to Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem) and obstructing Palestinians’ free movement.
The gun-toting soldiers broke into several stores and imposed heavy fines on their owners.
During the ensuing confrontations, the soldiers fired barrages of concussion grenades and tear gas canisters, resulting in a number of suffocation cases.
While Israel considers it part of the occupied city of Jerusalem, Kafr Aqab finds itself neglected and cut off from the rest of the city by Israel’s apartheid wall.
Though its some 60,000 residents have kept their Jerusalem ID cards – and have kept paying taxes to the Israeli occupation municipality – they have stopped receiving most services from the municipality.
Located within Area C and East Jerusalem, near the main checkpoint between Ramallah and Jerusalem and next to Israel’s apartheid wall, Qalandya refugee camp, also written as Qalandya, is flanked by a military checkpoint with the same name.
The checkpoint has become the busiest in the occupied West Bank in terms of pedestrian and vehicular traffic. It has a strong military presence and is often the scene of confrontations between the occupation forces and Palestinians. The occupying forces also conduct frequent incursions and raids within the camp, which have resulted in injuries and fatalities among camp residents.

Editorial
Notes about terms
& names of
people and places:
1. Names of people and places have been standardized to
match standard Arabic grammatical rules.
2. Underlined
letters and letters preceded by an apostrophe are
references to Arabic letter sounds, which does not exist in the English
alphabet.
3. The English letter i is
equivalent to the Arabic short vowel known as kasra,
as in Ibraheem
and Qasim
as well as in the English words sit and bit. So, it is incorrect to use
it as a long vowel for such Arabic names as Jameel and Jibreel.
4. The English letter e is
equivalent to the Arabi short vowel known as fat'ha,
as in A'hmed
and Mu'hammed.
5. It is more accurate to refer to the
land-grabbing Israelis,
who establish illegal settlements in the Palestinian territory of the
West Bank, as illegal
Israeli settlers, than referring to them as colonists.
The term colony is
a reference to a large entity or a country, such as American states before
independence. It was also a reference to Egypt, and India,
when they were British colonies.
In addition, the term "colony"
represents a positive
nostalgic theme, in the minds of native speakers of
English, particularly in America and Britain.
6. It is more
accurate to use the verbs "abduct"
and "kidnap"
than the verbs "detain"
and "arrest,"
in reference to taking Palestinian citizens by force to prisons and
interrogation centers, by Israeli occupation regime soldiers. This is
because the presence of the Israeli occupation regime forces is illegal
in the Palestinian territories, and they have no jurisdiction over the
Palestinian people.
