1094 Israelis Killed

October 07, 2023: *GROUP* After the establishment of Israel in 1948 through expulsion of much of the population and appropriation of their land, followed by decades of Israeli occupation and human rights abuses, and after a 20-month-long mass nonviolent effort, Palestinians in Gaza broke out of what was widely called an open air prison and launched a surprise operation against Israel in the early morning hours of Saturday, October 7, 2023.

Its scale was unprecedented, involving rockets and approximately 1,200 armed resistance fighters using hang gliders, motor boats, pickups trucks, and motorcycles. Many claims were made about this attack which were proven false. Israel immediately began bombing Gaza and subsequently turned off electricity to the enclave, leaving most of its two million inhabitants in the dark and hospitals dangerously impacted.

Due to the extremely large number of deaths, it is nearly impossible to account for each life individually. These figures have been collected from the most reliable and respected sources available to us, including OCHA, The Palestinian Health Ministry, Ha’aretz, Shireen.ps, and others.

Some Israelis listed by Ha’aretz were killed by Israeli forces, Hezbollah, or other causes, and are not included in our figures.

At this point in the conflict, we were not yet writing daily updates. For more specific information, visit this article of Haaretz.

Sgt. Maxim Molchanov

August 31, 2023: Sgt. Maxim Molchanov, age unknown, was killed in a vehicular collision when a Palestinian man driving a small truck west of Ramallah drove into a group of Israeli soldiers walking on the road. One of the soldiers was killed, five were wounded, and a Palestinian worker who was at the bus stop was also injured. In addition, two people in another vehicle were slightly injured when the truck hit their car, before the soldiers fatally shot him.

The army identified the slain soldier as Sgt. Maxim Molchanov. He had immigrated to Israel from Ukraine to Israel in the year 2017.

Two other soldiers sustained mild wounds, adding that two Israeli citizens in a nearby car and a 15-year-old Palestinian child were also injured.

The driver drove away and was apprehended at another checkpoint several kilometers down the road. Several soldiers at that checkpoint drew their weapons and shot the driver, killing him.

The driver of the vehicle has been identified as Daoud Abdul-Razeq Daras, a 41-year-old father of five who was working in Israel and driving back to the West Bank when the collision occurred. Daoud was from Deir Ammar town, northwest of Ramallah.

Israeli Ynet News said the Palestinian “entered Israel on foot at 5:55 in the early morning using his work permit and then boarded a truck with an Israeli license plate.”

The Maan News Agency quoted the Israeli Army Radio stating that further investigations revealed that the Palestinian driver was assaulted by Israeli soldiers at a military roadblock seven kilometers away two weeks ago.

The collision, and subsequent shooting of the driver of the vehicle, took place near a military checkpoint by the illegal Israeli colony known as ‘Mod’in’, which is built on stolen Palestinian land owned by residents of the village of Beit Sira.

The Times Of Israel said the soldier who was killed was off-duty, and added that six persons, including soldiers, were wounded.

It added that, according to the Israel army’s initial investigation, the Palestinian truck driver arrived at the military roadblock from the Israeli side, before he reportedly made a U-turn without looking, and ran over a number of off-duty soldiers.

Betsheva Nigri

August 21, 2023: Betsheva Nigri, 40, was shot and killed while driving near the Palestinian city of al-Khalil, in the southern part of the West Bank. Another passenger in the vehicle, an adult male, was wounded, while a six-year-old child in the car was not harmed.

The Israeli woman killed in the shooting has been identified as Betsheva Nigri, 40, while another Israeli, Aryeh Gottleib, 39, was seriously injured.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said Monday that the army arrested two young Palestinian men, both relatives from Hebron, who were believed to be behind the shooting and said in a social media post that the army will continue to “pursue and arrest Israel’s enemies…”

A joint statement by the Shin Bet, Israeli Border Police, and the Israeli Army confirmed the arrest of the two Palestinians and said they were moved to an interrogation facility run by the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency). During the invasion and the arrests, the Israeli army said it located and confiscated several weapons.

The army said the two did not resist the soldiers who abducted them. One of them, believed to be the one who killed the Israeli settler woman, has been identified as Saqer Shanteer.

It also said the gun reportedly used in the attack was located and confiscated, adding that the car the Palestinians used in the shooting was found burnt near Halhoul town, north of Hebron.

The gun used in the attack was also apprehended and the car that was allegedly used by the terrorists in their attack was found burned in the near-by city of Halhul.

Israeli military sources issued a statement claiming that two Israelis were shot from a passing vehicle.

Israeli forces closed all Palestinian roads in the area and implemented checkpoints, causing serious travel delays for the Palestinian population of the southern West Bank.

The wounded man was taken to Soroka Medical Center in Be’er As-Sabe’ (Beersheva) in serious condition.

Shay Silas Nigreker

ShayAugust 19, 2023: Shay Silas Nigreker, 60, was shot and killed, along with his son, Aviad Nir, 28, by an unknown perpetrator at a car wash in the West Bank.

The two men were residents of Ashdod, south of Tel Aviv, in the southern part of Israel. They had apparently been visiting a friend in an illegal Israeli settlement in the West Bank, and were returning back to Ashdod when they stopped at a car wash in the northern West Bank town of Huwara, south of Nablus.

Media sources said that an unknown assailant opened fire, critically injuring the Israeli man and his son. The shooter then fled on foot.

According to Palestinian sources, Israeli officials initially thought that the victims were Palestinian and did not send an ambulance for thirty minutes.

During that time, a Palestinian ambulance with the Red Crescent emergency response service arrived on the scene and tried to treat the two wounded men. After 30 minutes, an Israeli ambulance with the Magen David Adom ambulance service arrived and took over the resuscitation efforts, which were unsuccessful.

According to the Israeli army’s preliminary investigation, the shooter approached the men on foot, and fired from close range with a handgun.

The Israeli occupation army, in its continued search for the perpetrator, closed several military roadblocks in the vicinity of Nablus and the town of Huwara, tightening its inspection procedures, causing severe traffic crises.

The military arrested the owner of the car wash where the attack took place, although there is no indication that he was involved in any way. The army has not identified the perpetrator of Saturday’s shooting, but they locked down all of the nearby villages and towns and have installed additional checkpoints and raided homes and cars in the area.

On Saturday night, following the daytime shooting attack, Israeli colonial settlers rampaged in the town of Huwara, throwing rocks at Palestinian pedestrians and vehicles and setting fires, in a scene that brought back memories of the Israeli settler riots in February, in which hundreds of Palestinian homes and cars were burned by Israeli paramilitary settlers. During the February riots, Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich stated that he wanted Huwara to be ‘wiped off the map’, saying it was a ‘hotbed for terrorists’.

In the pre-dawn hours on Sunday morning, Israeli forces stationed in Huwara shot and wounded a masked Israeli paramilitary settler who had been throwing objects at vehicles on Route 60 – a road traveled by both Israeli colonial settlers and indigenous Palestinians.

According to local sources, a Palestinian young man allegedly shot and killed one Israeli security guard, and injured two more Israelis in Tel Aviv, in the central coastal region of Israel.

The Times of Israel quoted Israeli Police Commissioner, Kobi Shabtai, who stated that two security officers approached a “suspect” who pulled out a handgun and opened fire, striking one of the security guards.

Shilo Yosef Amir

July 06, 2023: Shilo Yosef Amir, 19, was killed by a Palestinian who opened fire at an Israeli military roadblock near Qalqilia, in the northwestern part of the occupied West Bank, before Israeli soldiers fatally shot him.

The shooting occurred near the illegal Kedumim colony, built on Palestinian lands near Kufur Qaddoum town, east of Qalqilia.

Israeli daily Haaretz quoted a security source stating that, after the shooting, one of the colony’s patrols “spotted a suspicious car” and called the army before the 19-year-old Palestinian, Ahmad Hilal Ghethan, “opened fire at the soldiers and fled on foot, but they chased him and fatally shot him.”

In a statement, the Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of the Hamas movement, claimed responsibility for the shooting and said it was a natural response to the Israeli aggression and crimes against the Jenin refugee camp and the Palestinian people in every part of Palestine.

Ahmad Hilal Ghethan

“This is a message to the criminal Smotrich (Israeli Finance Minister, far-right ultranationalist colonizer Bezalel Smotrich), telling you that Al-Qassam almost knocked on your door,” Al-Qassam said, “We promise you more resistance; those who plant death and destruction against our people will only reap death and defeat….”

After the shooting, dozens of soldiers invaded Qibya village, west of the central West Bank city of Ramallah, where Ahmad lived with his family, and abducted his father, Hilal Ghethan, his older brother, Mohammad, and his sister, Sanari, 25. The army released Mohammad after interrogating him for several hours.

Khadra Ghethan, the slain Palestinian’s mother, said the soldiers invaded and caused serious damage to her home and interrogated the family before abducting her daughter Sanari, a married mother of two children, 3 and 4 years of age.

Many Palestinians protested the invasion before the soldiers shot two young men with live fire and caused several Palestinians to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation.

The soldiers also fired live rounds at a car of a photojournalist, Karim Khamaisa, shattering its rear windshield.

Furthermore, illegal Israeli colonizers closed many roads in the northern West Bank and attacked many Palestinian cars and ambulances, causing damage,

Ramez Abdullah, the director of the Darwish Nazzal governmental hospital in Qalqilia, said the colonizers attacked an ambulance transporting a seriously injured infant to the hospital, shattering its rear windshield.

Abdullah said the ambulance was transporting an infant, who fell and suffered a skull fracture and hemorrhaging, to the hospital and tried to prevent it from reaching its destination.

Also, Israeli colonizers attacked many cars in Huwwara town, south of Nablus, causing damage and wounding at least one Palestinian.

In Salfit, in the central West Bank, Israeli colonizers attempted to invade Hares town, west of the city, but the locals intercepted their attack before Israeli soldiers invaded the town, closed its entrance, and fired many live rounds and gas bombs, causing many Palestinians to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation.

Elisha Antman

June 20, 2023: Elisha Antman, 18, was killed by two Palestinians who also killed three other Israeli colonizers and wounded four near the illegal Israeli colony of Eli in the occupied West Bank.

Israeli sources said one of the Palestinians was shot and killed at the shooting scene, and the other was killed two hours later by Israeli soldiers.

The Israelis who were killed in the attack were identified as Elisha Antman, 18, from Eli colony; Harel Masoud, 21, from Yad Binyamin; Nachman Shmuel Mordoff, 17, from Ahiya, and Ofer Feierman, 63, from Eli colony.

Of the wounded, one was listed as seriously wounded, while three were wounded lightly.

The shooters were identified as Mohannad Faleh Shahada, 26, who was killed on site by an Israeli paramilitary colonial settler, and Khaled Mustafa Sabah, 24, who managed to escape from the scene of the shooting but was pursued by Israeli soldiers who killed him and wounded another Palestinian civilian.

According to eyewitnesses, the two Palestinians drove up to the gas station, entered a restaurant attached to the gas station, and shot at the Israelis who were dining there, killing four people and wounding four.

Israeli media reported that the two Palestinian shooters had been imprisoned together at the Israeli prison of Megiddo two and a half years ago.

After the attack,  Islamic Resistance Movement – Hamas, praised the shooting, saying the shooting was “a response to Israel’s crimes carried out at the Jenin refugee camp and the aggression against the Al-Aqsa Mosque. The struggle won’t stop until our people are free and independent.”

The Israeli army later invaded Orif town, south of Nablus, before storming the family homes of the two Palestinians and took measurements of the properties to prepare for demolishing them as part of Israel’s collective punishment policies, illegal under International Law and all related human rights treaties, including the Fourth Geneva Convention.

Israeli daily Haaretz said that while this attack could lead to accelerated operations to prepare for a large-scale military offensive in the West Bank, such an offensive would occur due to political leadership pressure.

Haaretz said the offensive, which would be dubbed Guardian of the Walls II, which refers to the original operation in 2021, could be different than what its name suggests but likely a limited offensive that would last for a few days “to calm things on the ground,” and to appease demands from the Israeli right-wing.

On Tuesday evening, the Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed the death of Nasser Saleh Mohammad Sinan, 55, whom Israeli soldiers shot with a live round in the head a month earlier in Jenin, in the northern part of the occupied West Bank.

On Monday evening, Israeli soldiers killed a young Palestinian man and injured two after the army invaded Husan village, west of Bethlehem, in the occupied West Bank.

Earlier Monday, the Palestinian Health Ministry confirmed that Israeli soldiers killed five Palestinians, including a child, and injured at least 100, including 23 who suffered life-threatening wounds, in Jenin and the Jenin refugee camp, in the northern part of the occupied West Bank.
