IOF soldiers abuse minor in northern Jenin
Picture
Israeli soldiers abused a Palestinian minor from Jenin city on Sunday morning.  

Local sources said the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) manning al-Jalameh military barrier to the north of the city assaulted the 17-year-old boy Mohammad Fawaz Zakarneh. Mohammad is now suffering bruises resulting from the IOF brutal attack.

The sources noted that a lot of Israeli assaults have recently been carried out at al-Jalameh military checkpoint that caused injuries to many Palestinians.

The IOF soldiers detained the boy for two hours before they released him when they found out that he suffers from mental disorders, the sources concluded.

Israeli forces fire rubber-coated bullet at 7-year-old in Jerusalem
Picture
Seven-year-old Anas Yahya Abdeen was reportedly shot with a rubber-coated bullet by Israeli soldiers on Friday evening in his house in the Ras al-Amud neighborhood east of the Old City of Jerusalem.

According to his father, the boy was hit after Israeli troops stormed the house of Abd al-Razeq al-Salayma who allegedly drove his vehicle into a group of Israeli border police in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood earlier on Friday.

Anas was standing in the balcony opposite to the house of al-Salayma family when "all of the sudden he started to cry and shout, and we realized later that he was hit by a black rubber-coated bullet in his arm," the father explained.

Separately, a young Palestinian man was shot with a rubber-coated bullet in his forehead during clashes in the Ein al-Luza area of the Silwan neighborhood southeast of the Old City, according to Majdi al-Abbasi of the Silwan-based Wadi Hilweh Information Center.

He added that clashes broke out in the area between young Palestinian men and Israeli troops, and that Israeli troops arrested a 14-year-old boy Mustafa Baydoun while he was standing outside his house in Baydoun area of Silwan, where clashes also ensued.

An Israeli police spokesman did not immediately return a call for information on the incident.

Israeli police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld informed Ma'an of heightened security measures to be taken throughout Jerusalem on Friday, following the alleged attack by al-Salayma.

New video shows IOF soldiers using dog to abuse Palestinian kid
Picture
The website of Israel's second channel on Monday released a video clip showing a group of Israeli soldiers chasing a Palestinian child and unleashing a dog on him. 

The video recording showed the soldiers laughing and calling the child a coward as the dog was savaging him. The child was crying and seemed to be extremely traumatized.

The website pointed out that the incident happened last December near Gush Etzion settlement, adding that the child was detained at the time on allegations of throwing stones at the soldiers.

The video clip has been published by the Palestinian Information Center (PIC).

Israeli politician leaks classified army video showing soldiers using dogs to attack Palestinian boy

A video posted on Facebook Monday by a right-wing Israeli politician, then quickly removed, showed graphic evidence of what Palestinians have reported to be a common Israeli military practice: using dogs to attack unarmed civilians, including children.

In the video leaked by Michael Ben-Ari on his Facebook page, two Israeli soldiers are holding onto a 16-year old boy, and forcing a dog to bite the child while commanding the dog 'Bite him!' and saying to the boy, 'Who's the coward now?' in Hebrew.

The incident in question has been identified as a December 23rd 2014 attack by Israeli soldiers who captured the child in a 'buffer zone' between Beit Ummar, a town located near Hebron in the southern part of the West Bank, and a nearby Israeli settlement built on land stolen from the Palestinian residents of Beit Ummar.

Before it was removed, the video was copied and spread around the internet. In response, the Israeli military issued a statement saying that the incident was 'irregular' and 'would be investigated'.

But the Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories, B'Tselem, has documented numerous occasions on which the Israeli military used dogs as weapons against unarmed Palestinian civilians.

On December 24th, 2014, in fact, B'Tselem posted a report of this particular incident, and video footage of the abduction of 16-year old Hamzeh Abu Hashem. But while the B'Tselem video included a number of disturbing elements, including soldiers chasing down and pinning a 16-year old boy suspected of throwing stones, and an Israeli settler pointing a gun directly at the boy with impunity, the video did not show the actual attack on the boy by the dogs.

But the clip posted by Ben-Ari does show the dogs being used as weapons, in an image reminiscent of the use of dogs by U.S. police in the southern part of the country during the civil rights era using German shepherds to attack protesters.

According to the B'Tselem report about the incident, posted on December 24th 2014, "At approximately 2 P.M. on Tuesday, 23 Dec. 2014, a confrontation developed between several dozen Palestinians and soldiers in the Special Security Area (SSA) surrounding the settlement of Carmei Tzur, south of Beit Umar in the West Bank. The area is the site of frequent confrontations between soldiers and Palestinian residents of Beit Umar, whose land was appropriated for the settlement and the SSA.

"The SSA, which is supposed to serve as a buffer zone that no one but security forces may enter, was established on privately-owned Palestinian land. The owners need to obtain a special permit to reach and cultivate their land, but such permits are issued for only several days a year. In contrast, security forces allow settlers free access to the stolen land.

"Video filmed by B’Tselem camera volunteer Muhammad ‘Awwad. The footage shows the soldiers with the attack dogs on village land and the arrest of 16-year-old Hamzeh Abu Hashem, but not the attack itself. Further on, soldiers are seen taking the teen into the SSA and locking the gate behind them, after which Palestinians verbally confront them, demanding his release. A settler, probably the settlement’s head of security, is seen cocking his weapon and the soldiers do nothing to stop him.

"During the confrontation, Palestinians threw stones at soldiers, who responded with use of crowd control weapons. About an hour after the incident began, at around 3 P.M., two soldiers arrived on the spot with two dogs, who were captured on video by B’Tselem volunteer Muhammad ‘Awwad. According to eyewitness reports, one of the dogs (seen lunging forward at the beginning of the footage) attacked and bit one of the Palestinians confronting the soldiers, 16-year-old Hamzeh Abu Hashem. The soldiers then removed the dogs, handcuffed Abu Hashem, and took him to the settlement of Carmei Tzur. From there, he was taken by ambulance to an Israeli hospital. Abu Hashem’s family reported that he was arrested and taken from hospital to Ofer Prison. "

Picture
The occupation forces arrested on Monday night the 11-year old Mohammad Samer Sarhan (the son of the Martyr Samer Sarhan) after raiding his house in the neighborhood of Al-Bustan in Silwan.

Hanadi Sarhan, the child’s mother, explained that the occupation Special Forces raided the family’s house at 9:30 p.m. and checked her ID then arrested her son Mohammad.

Sarhan added that the forces transferred her son to Salah Eddin Street police station for interrogation.

Sarhan explained that she went to attend her son’s interrogation at the police station and was surprised when she found the son was accused of throwing stones at the settlers’ vehicle in Silwan. They forced her to leave the interrogation room and the interrogator threatened to arrest her if she doesn’t follow the orders.

Wadi Hilweh Information Center was informed that the police released the child without any conditions and the child explained that the police assaulted and threatened him in an attempt to get any confessions.

8-year-old child among two detainees reported in WB, OJ
Picture
Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) nabbed on Sunday a Jerusalemite young man at the entrance to Shufat refugee camp to the north of occupied Jerusalem on charge of possession of stun grenades.

The Israeli radio claimed that the detainee was arrested after IOF allegedly found seven stun grenades in his car.

The detainee, 30, was transferred to an Israeli investigation center after bomb experts were able to defuse the grenades, according to the sources.

Meanwhile, IOF soldiers stationed at Container military checkpoint arrested Sunday an 8-year-old child in al-Khalil while on his way back home from school.

Local sources confirmed that the child was violently searched before his arrest.

Along the same line, a number of residents were stopped and searched in the nearby Shalala Street. No arrests were reported.

Child Detainee Denied Family Visits, Medical Treatment
Picture
Child detainee, Khaled Husam Sheikh, 15 years of age, has been denied family visits, and essential medical treatment, since his abduction by the Israeli army 62 days ago, after the soldiers alleged he threw stones on their vehicles.

The Ahrar Center for Detainees’ Studies and Human Rights said the child suffers from anemia, and other health issues, adding that the army is not providing him any adequate, or specialized, medical treatment since kidnapping him on December 25, 2014.

His family said it was never allowed to visit him, and filed several applications to the Israeli side, but the army kept denying their right to see him.

The family called for more solidarity activities with all detained Palestinians, especially the children, and urged human rights groups to intervene and secure the release of their son.

Ahrar Center said denying the detained child the right to medical attention, and treatment, is a serious violation of all human rights agreements, and International Law.

Sheikh, from Beit ‘Anan in occupied Jerusalem, was kidnapped by the soldiers next to his family home, and is currently held in the ‘Ofer Israeli prison, near the central West Bank city of Ramallah.

On Wednesday, February 11, his family said a court hearing, to look into the case of their child, has been scheduled to February 25.

Head of the Ahrar Center, Fuad al-Khoffash, said Israel is currently holding captive nearly 300 children, under very difficult conditions, and is denying them their basic rights.

Al-Khoffash called for the release of all detained children, and warned that international silence regarding the ongoing and escalating violations is encouraging Israel to continue its serious violations of all international law, treaties and regulations.

ISM Report: 10-year-old Boy Attacked and Arrested for Playing in the Snow

Saleh in Hebron Public Hospital

On the afternoon of the 21st of February Saleh Abu Shamsiya, a 10-year-old Palestinian boy, was attacked by settler youth in the Al-Khalil (Hebron) neighborhood of Tel Rumeida.

Saleh’s father and activist with the group Human Rights Defenders Imad Abu Shamsiya reported that the settlers, who looked around 18-19 years old, surrounded his son while he was playing in the snow and stabbed him in the arm with a sharp metal object about 15 cm long.

Saleh’s wound, which required 2 stitches at the hospital.

The soldiers stationed at Gilbert checkpoint, directly beside where the attack took place, did nothing try to prevent the settlers from assaulting Saleh. The boy was then taken to the hospital where the wound required two stitches. The night after the attack, Saleh could not sleep from the pain.

The following day, at 2:40pm, Saleh was again playing in the snow on the hills of Tel Rumeida when he was kidnapped by soldiers and brought to the military base in the Tel Rumeida’s illegal settlement. The 10-year-old boy was kept for about 20 minutes before Israeli police took him to the DCO (District Coordinator Office). After that the boy was handed over to the Palestinian police who informed his father about his whereabouts.

Saleh’s family lives very near the illegal Israeli settlement in Tel Rumeida, occupied by some of Palestine’s most violent Zionist settlers. Israeli occupation forces and settlers have repeatedly targeted the Abu Shamsiya family. Saleh’s brothers Awne and Mohammed have both been beaten by settlers, who used to routinely occupy the family’s roof. The nearby illegal settlements, along with the Israeli military occupation, continue to deny some of this family’s most basic human needs such as freedom of movement and the right of their children to play.

IOF prevents children’s access to kindergarten in al-Khalil
Picture
The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) prevented Monday Palestinian children from having access to their kindergarten near the Ibrahimi mosque in al-Khalil.

Local sources confirmed that IOF soldiers stationed near the mosque prevented the children from entering the kindergarten and forced them to stay out despite the very cold weather, while allowing in the meantime the settlers’ free movement in the area.

Palestinian citizens in al-Khalil are daily subjected to harassment and assaults as they are forced to pass through four military checkpoints equipped with electronic gates blocking the roads leading to the Ibrahimi mosque.

Also in al-Khalil, two citizens were nabbed on Monday during an Israeli raid and search campaign in the city.

The IOF transferred the two detainees to unknown detention centers after patrolling the city's streets and neighborhoods.

Israeli forces to question young East Jerusalem brothers
Picture
Israeli troops broke into a Palestinian home in the al-Tur neighborhood of East Jerusalem and handed a warrant to the owner demanding that he send two of his boys to the Russian Compound police station for questioning.

The boys' father Arafat Abu Sbeitan told Ma'an in Jerusalem that Israeli troops wanted at the beginning to arrest his sons Muhammad, 12, and Ibrahim, 10.

However, he refused to turn the boys in.

He told the soldiers that Muhammad had an appointment at the doctor after he was bitten by a dog and Ibrahim has recently underwent eye surgery. The soldiers then ordered Abu Sbeitan to bring his sons to Israeli police station for questioning.

"The occupation soldiers forced me to wake my sons up so they can make sure that there was a sign of a dog bite on Muhammad's hand. They then took photos of the boys and handed me a summons demanding that I bring them to the Russian Compound police station for questioning."

Israeli forces have detained more than 20 teens and youths from al-Tur since the beginning of February accusing them of different charges including manufacturing improvised weapons and devices to be used against Israeli forces.

Furthermore, Israeli troops and police officers deploy in the neighborhood almost every day inspecting vehicles and pedestrians especially near schools.

Separately, bulldozers escorted by Israeli military vehicles tore down a wall in a tract of land owned by Muhammad Abu al-Hawa in the al-Tur neighborhood under the pretext that the land is designated as green space. The family told Ma'an that the three-year-old wall was demolished without prior notice.

Similarly, Israeli forces demolished on Tuesday morning the protest camp Bawwabat al-Quds (the Gate to Jerusalem) which Palestinian activists built on Monday evening for the eighth time in a span of a month.

Ailing Child Detainee in Deteriorating Condition, Denied Treatment, Family Visits
Picture
Khaled Sheikh

The Ahrar Center for Human Rights has reported that an ailing child detainee, held by Israel since his kidnapping on December 24, 2014, in occupied Jerusalem, is facing seriously deteriorating health conditions, including anemia.

Ahrar said that Khaled Husam Mahmoud Sheikh, 15 years of age, is from Beit ‘Anan town, in occupied Jerusalem, and that the army is accusing him of throwing stones at the soldiers, and burning tires.

His father told Ahrar that his son suffers from a number of health conditions, including anemia, as his current hemoglobin blood cell count is low, and added that the family was deeply concerned about their child, especially since Israel is not providing him with the urgently needed medical attention.

Ahrar stated that Khaled was walking near the Israeli Annexation Wall, close to his family home, on December 25 of last year, when he was kidnapped by the Israeli military.

Khaled is currently held at the ‘Ofer Israeli prison, near the central West Bank city of Ramallah, facing very difficult conditions.

Israeli military courts already held three hearings to look into his cases, and the charges he is facing, while his family has never been allowed to visit him, hug him, or even talk to him while either in detention or at court.

Whenever he was brought to court, the soldiers brought him handcuffed and shackled despite his young age, and his bad health condition.

On Wednesday, February 11, his family said a court hearing, to look into the case of their child, has been scheduled to February 25.

Head of the Ahrar Center for Detainees’ Studies and Human Rights Fuad al-Khuffash said Israel is currently holding captive nearly 300 children; the youngest of them is Malak al-Khatib, who was kidnapped by the army 38 days ago.

Malak is currently held in the Ha-Sharon Israeli prison, after an Israeli court sentenced her to two months imprisonment, and a 6000 Shekel fine. http://www.imemc.org/article/70324

Al-Khuffash called on international human rights groups to act to ensure the release of all children held by Israel, and denied their very basic rights, and warned that international idleness towards the escalating Israeli violations would just lead to further crimes and abuse.
