December 09, 2017: Mohammad Jabr as-Safadi, 25, was killed by Israeli soldiers who fired missiles into an area, south of Gaza city, causing serious damage, and killing him along with another Palestinian, identified Mahmoud Mohammad at-‘Atal, 29.

The Health Ministry in Gaza, said medics and rescue teams rushed into the bombarded area, and located the remains of two Palestinians, buried under the rubble.

A Palestinian resistance organization said the two are members, adding that the bombarded site “Bader” was run by it.

The army also fired many missiles into three other resistance sites, south of Gaza city, in addition to Khan Younis, and east of Jabalia, in northern Gaza.

The Israeli army claimed it was retaliating to shells fired from Gaza, on Friday, on Sderot and nearby areas, in the Negev.

On Saturday morning, Israeli soldiers, stationed across the border fence, shot and injured at least one Palestinian, and caused many others to suffer the effects of teargas inhalation.

Media sources said the army attacked dozens of protesters, who marched in Khuza’a town, east of Khan Younis, moderately wounding one teenager, and caused many others, mainly school students, to suffer the severe effects of teargas inhalation.

The wounded teen was rushed to Nasser hospital, in Khan Younis, while the medics provided treatment to many Palestinians who suffered the effects of teargas inhalation.

At least at least fifteen Palestinians, including a child who suffered life-threatening injuries, were wounded, during an earlier bombarded of several areas in the Gaza Strip.

The two Palestinians were killed less than 24 hours after the soldiers killed two Palestinians, and injured 1114 others, in several parts of the occupied West Bank, including Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip.

Ron Yitzhak Kukia

Ron Kukia

November 30, 2017: Ron Yitzhak Kukia, 19, was stabbed to death at a bus stop in the town of Arad in southern Israel. The two men charged with the murder were also charged with “terrorism,” under the assumption that the stabbing was politically motivated.

Two Palestinian Bedouin men charged with the attack were both members of the Abu Judeh family, from the Bedouin town of Kuseife, in southern Israel near the Israeli town of Arad where the stabbing took place.

Khaled Abu Judeh and his relative Zahi Abu Judeh were interrogated by Israeli police until “Khaled admitted to the stabbing.”

Israeli police said that during the interrogation, Khaled had told them that they had planned to kidnap the soldier, sedating him with anesthesia drugs, and then using him as a bargaining tool for the release of some of the 6,000 Palestinians prisoners held by Israel – many of whom are being held for years with no charges having been filed.

According to Israeli police, the two men had taken the soldier’s rifle after allegedly stabbing him, and the police found the rifle in the possession of one of the brothers.

The two had no criminal records, were not under suspicion of the Israeli intelligence service Shin Bet, and were not affiliated with any groups.

Following the November 30th stabbing, Israeli police have increased the number of checkpoints in the area, and have raided homes in Bedouin villages and towns in southern Israel.

On the same day that Kukia was killed, a Palestinian was shot dead by an Israeli settler from Migdalim who opened fire toward Palestinian teens who were allegedly throwing stones at the settlers who were trespassing on their land. Israeli soldiers arrived and also fired at the teens, and escorted the settlers, including the killer, away from the village. He was not charged with a crime.

Mahmoud Odeh

November 30, 2017: Mahmoud Za’al Odeh, 46, was killed by an Israeli settler, after a group of settlers attacked Palestinian villagers on their lands, in Qusra village, south of Nablus, in the northern part of the West Bank.

Emad Jamil, a member of Qusra Village Council, said the attack was carried out by approximately 20 settlers who came from the illegal “Yesh Kod” outpost, which was built on private Palestinian lands, and assaulted the Palestinian and his family, before one of them shot Mahmoud.

The settlers also shot another Palestinian identified as Fayez Fathi Hasan, 47, with a live round in his leg.

Jamil added that the bullet exited through the Mahmoud’s chest, before the villagers tried to rescue him and move him to a hospital, but Israeli soldiers stopped them at Za’tara military roadblock for at least 30 minutes, and he bled to death.

Following his death, the soldiers allowed the Palestinians to pass, but again stopped them at Huwwara military roadblock, before taking his body from them, and moving it to their nearby Israeli army base.

After killing the Palestinian, the settlers fled to a nearby cave, and barricaded themselves there, until dozens of soldiers invaded the area, and surrounded the town, before removing them and taking them away.

“The colony where the Israeli assailants reside is nearly 15 kilometers away from the Odeh’s land,” Jamil said, “It is clear they infiltrated the area, close to many Palestinian homes, with one goal in mind, to commit murder – there have been many attacks by colonists in this area, including the burning, cutting and uprooting of trees.”

He also stated that, several years ago, Odeh built a small hut on his 7-Dunam land, and received many threats from the settlers, in addition to being repeatedly assaulted, while working on his land.

Hours after the fatal Israeli attack, dozens of settlers and soldiers invaded Qusra, before the army shot and seriously wounded one Palestinian in his pelvis, and injured many others, while the settlers also smashed the front shield and one of the windows of a Palestinian ambulance, wounding the driver in his eye.

The Palestinian Red Crescent identified the injuries among the Palestinians as:

  • Two were shot with live rounds in the pelvis, and the leg.
  • Two were shot with rubber-coated steel bullets.
  • Two were assaulted and beaten by soldiers and settlers.
  • One ambulance driver wounded in his eye.
  • Scores of Palestinians suffered the effects of teargas inhalation.

November 22, 2017: Hodaya Nechama Asulin, 21, died of injuries sustained six years earlier, in 2011, in an explosion in Jerusalem.

Hodaya was a resident of Mevo Horon, an Israeli settlement of just over 2500 residents which is a Jewish religious commune constructed on illegally-seized Palestinian land.

She was injured on 23 Mar 2011 in Jerusalem when a bomb planted by a Palestinian went off while she was waiting at a bus stop near Binyanei Hauma (the International Convention Center) in Jerusalem. She was in a coma from the time of the explosion until she succumbed to her wounds. A British woman was also killed by the bomb.

Hodaya was from Mevo Horon.

November 8, 2017: Atef al-Maqousi, 37, died from complications resulting from serious wounds he suffered in 1992, after Israeli soldiers shot him in his spine.

The Palestinian suffered from quadriplegia as a result of his injury, when the soldiers shot him with live fire in Jabalia refugee camp, in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.

Following his serious gunshot injury and the resulting quadriplegia, the Palestinian suffered ongoing infections, and repeated serious complications that eventually led to his death, medical source said.

Mohammad Mousa

October 31, 2017: Mohammad Abdullah Mousa, 25, was killed by Israeli soldiers who fired live rounds at his car, near a military roadblock, close to Halamish Israeli settlement, northwest of Ramallah, in the West Bank.

Mohammad and his sister, Latifah Mousa, 33, were both injured by army fire, but he later died from his serious wounds in Beilinson Israeli Hospital in Petah Tikva.
Mohammad worked odd jobs, while his sister is a married mother of four daughters and a son.

Although the army initially claimed the soldiers opened fire at the car after the driver attempted a “vehicular attack” against them, the Israeli District Coordination office later said the soldiers apparently “accidentally fired at the car.”

The army stated that the soldiers opened fire at the vehicle after it “raised suspicion when it approached the roadblock,” and added that it was investigating the incident.

Mohammad’s sister was transferred to the Istishari Hospital, in Ramallah, and is receiving treatment for gunshot wounds in her shoulder.

Mousa Ballout, one of their cousins said Mohammad didn’t see the military roadblock, and the stop sign leading to it, adding that the soldiers instantly opened fire at the car.

Mousa stated that the Palestinian District Coordination Office was talking to the military to arrange the transfer Mohammad’s corpse back to his family.

Mousa added that the Mohammad was driving to Ramallah to prepare the needed paperwork for his driver’s license, while his sister accompanied him to check out a school for her daughter.

The Palestinian Red Crescent said the soldiers obstructed the work of its ambulance crew, before they later managed to transfer the wounded woman to the hospital in Ramallah.

Talking to Israeli online daily Haaretz, Mohammad’s cousin, Kamal Mousa, said the family strongly rejects the military’s allegations, and described them as lies and fabrication, to justify the shooting.

He added that a person who intends to carry out an attack does not bring a family member, such as a sister or a mother, because he knows that he, and those who accompany him, will be seriously hurt, and even killed.

Badr Mosbeh

contact@ifamericansknew.org

October 30th, 2017: Badr Kamal Mosbeh was killed in the Israeli bombardment of a border tunnel in Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip. He was one of twelve killed in the tunnel bombardment. Initial reports were that seven were killed, while the bodies of Badr and four other men were found buried in the rubble several days later.

The Israeli army fired at least five missiles into the tunnel, which was still under construction in the area near Kissufim military base, across the border fence.

The tunnel was run by Al-Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Islamic Jihad. Ten of those killed were members of the Al-Quds Brigades, while two were members of the Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, who entered the tunnel after the bombing to assist with the search and rescue operations.

The Israeli army said it carried out what it called “a scheduled detonation of a new tunnel, which was under construction near the border fence.” The bombing was instantly followed by heavy deployment of armored vehicles and fighter jets, in the area, especially east of Khan Younis.

A number of Palestinian armed resistance groups responded to the bombardment by issuing calls for retaliation against Israel, and criticizing Israel for what they claimed was an unnecessary escalation.
