April 07, 2023: Rina Dee, 15, was one of two Israeli sisters from the Efrat illegal colony near Bethlehem, in the occupied West Bank, who were killed in a shooting incident in the Jordan Valley in the West Bank. Their mother was wounded in the attack.

The two sisters were the daughters of British-Israeli Rabbi Leo Dee, and they were in a car traveling with their mother to a hiking spot in the Jordan Valley when the car was shot at by unknown assailants and ran off the road, killing both of the daughters.

The BBC said Maia was 20 years old and volunteering for national service in a high school.

Reports indicated that emergency teams found three Israeli women with signs of gunshot wounds on them in the northern part of the Jordan Valley of the West Bank.

The two women and their mother, Lucy, 45, who suffered serious wounds, were airlifted by a military helicopter to the hospital.

The reports added that the three women were in a car that came under gunfire and said that the army initiated a massive search campaign to locate the persons behind the shooting.

Two of the wounded injured, in their twenties, succumbed to their critical wounds and were officially declared dead at the scene, and one, in her forties, is in critical condition.

According to the army, the shooting occurred not far from the Al-Hamra area, and the military initiated a massive manhunt, including military helicopters, to locate the shooters.

Israeli Police Chief, Kobi Shabtai, called on all Israelis, who are licensed to carry firearms and skilled in using them, to do so.

The incident occurred amidst increasing Israeli violations and invasions of Al-Aqsa Mosque, in occupied Jerusalem, resulting in dozens of abductions and injuries.

At least 92 Palestinians, including 16 children, and 14 Israelis, including 3 children, have been killed by someone from the other side in 2023.

April 01, 2023: Mohammad Raed Nayef Baradiya, 23, was killed by Israeli soldiers near the town of Beit Ummar, north of Hebron, in the southern part of the occupied West Bank.

The Public Authority for Civil Affairs stated that it had informed the Ministry of Health of Mohammad’s death by Israeli occupation bullets near the town of Beit Ummar.

Israeli police claimed that a vehicular collision in the West Bank was an alleged ‘ramming attack’ by a Palestinian driver.

Soon after the vehicle collision, Israeli military troops fired numerous live rounds at the driver, without stopping to question him.

Local sources reported that the occupation soldiers left Mohammad bleeding on the ground, and prevented Palestinian ambulances from approaching the place, until he died.

The Israeli occupation authorities claimed that three of its soldiers were wounded, two of them seriously, in an alleged “vehicle ramming attack” operation carried out by a Palestinian near the junction of the settlement bloc, “Gush Etzion”, which is located on stolen Palestinian land south of Bethlehem.

With the killing of the young man, the death toll since the beginning of this year has risen to 92, including 17 children and a woman, and a young man from the village of Hura in the Negev within the borders of what is now Israel.

April 01, 2023: Mohammad Al-Asibi, 26, died from serious wounds he suffered a day earlier after Israeli soldiers shot him at the Bab Al-Silsila (Chain Gate) leading to the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem after alleging he attempted to snatch a weapon from a soldier, an allegation that witnesses denied.

The young man suffered serious wounds when the soldiers claimed they shot him after he “attempted to snatch a weapon from a soldier”, an allegation that witnesses denied.

The Israeli army claimed that the soldiers shot the young man when he reportedly tried to snatch a weapon from an officer and that he also “was able to fire the weapon a few times before he was killed.”

Eyewitnesses said Mohammad was shot while trying to stop the soldiers who were beating up a young woman and dragging her out of the Al-Aqsa Mosque through the Chain Gate in preparation for abducting her.

They added that the slain man never tried to assault the soldiers or snatch their weapons and was only focused on trying to stop them from attacking and abducting the young woman.

The soldiers were also clubbing and assaulting dozens of Palestinians trying to enter the Al-Aqsa Mosque and its courtyards to pray on the second Friday of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

Arab Member of Knesset Ayman Odeh and former Member of Knesset Talab Al-Sane’, denounced the Israeli crime and the attempts to justify the young man’s murder who graduated from med school and completed his medical practice exam just two weeks earlier.

Odeh added that Mohammad went to pray in Al-Aqsa Mosque and could not tolerate the sight of Israeli soldiers and police officers assaulting the young woman and tried to stop them before they shot him and said that the Palestinian did not carry any weapons and did not attempt to attack soldiers or snatch their weapons.

“Everybody needs to understand that the Israeli occupation is the ongoing and biggest crime,” Odeh said, “The suffering, the crimes will continue as long as this illegal occupation is ongoing.”

MK Sane’ also denounced the Israeli crime and said the young man was shot point blank, adding that the Israeli allegations are mere lies and fabrications to justify another crime against the Palestinian people.

“The army and the police have surveillance cameras all over the place, in every corner, alley and street, let’s see them release those videos…” he stated.

He added that the crime was also encouraged by racist and fundamentalist right-wing coalition members of Benjamin Netanyahu’s governorate, especially the fanatic Itamar Ben-Gvir.

ِHours after killing the newly graduated physician, dozens of soldiers and border police officers stormed his home in Houra, in the Negev, ransacked the property, confiscated the slain man’s computer, and interrogated the family.

A general strike and mourning were declared in Houra and Rahat and many Arab villages and towns in the Negev.
