Palestinian Muslims marked a tense and sombre last Friday of Ramadan in Jerusalem as Israeli police controlling the entrance to the Al-Aqsa mosque – the third holiest site in Islam – attacked worshippers. Some 120,000 people descended on the shrine, which dominates the Old City, officials said, with grand mufti Muhammad Ahmad Hussein urging the faithful to brave the heavy police presence because of the war in Gaza. Adli al-Agha, 53, from Jerusalem, told AFP that many people “had to flee dawn prayers” after Israeli police deployed a mini-drone spraying tear gas to disperse people chanting “Glory to God”. “In our soul and our blood, we sacrifice for you Al-Aqsa,” worshippers declared, according to Agha. Police said they arrested eight people for inciting terrorism. Yasser Basha, from Tulkarem in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, said police were restricting entrance to the mosque to the old and the very young. Only men over 55 and women over 50 were being allowed inside, he said. “If it wasn’t for the war, things would have been much easier,” he added. #news #pakistan #gaza #palestine #israel #war #jerusalem #police #worshippers #people

After Israeli forces withdraw from Tal Al-Hawa in Gaza, multiple executed Palestinian civilians have been uncovered in the streets. The remains of executed children and women were found in their homes, set on fire by Israeli soldiers before leaving.

Today (26-Jan-2024), the ICJ delivered its decision regarding South Africa's claims against Israel. The ICJ did not determine that Israel should ceasefire immediately, as South Africa demanded. However, South Africa's ridiculous Genocide claims were not rejected, and the court will continue discussing them. International institutions seeking to reduce the suffering of the Palestinians continue to ignore the leading cause for this suffering: #Hamas. As argued by Israel on Jan. 12, the civilian toll in Gaza is an unfortunate but unavoidable consequence of fighting a militant group that hides in civilian areas, including hospitals and UNRAW’s schools. These international institutions also keep ignoring the suffering of the citizens of Israel, including the 136 hostages in Gaza and 120,000 displaced civilians from the South and North of Israel. Hamas terrorists performed a #genocide* on October 7th, 2023 methodically and thoroughly moving from house to house, killing, beheading, and burning alive after torturing and raping every citizen they found. *Just like the Nazis in WW2.* Hamas’ leaders state that they will do it again and again. We fight for our right to exist; Hamas fights for their aspiration to destroy us. #FactsMatter #IsraelWillWinTheTerror #NeverAgain

Killing babies or woman, or for that matter any innocent person equals killing an entire humanity. We were told that nothing should be justified for heinous crimes committed by Hamas on October 7, 2023. I agree with that statement. If that statement is true, no any conscious person should support, either directly or indirectly what’s happening in Gaza. Genocide/war would not lead to a peaceful coexistence or reconciliation! Algeria came out with a comprehensive ceasefire resolution to be tabled at the UN Security Council. But as expected, the Biden administration warned that it would again veto any “permanent “ ceasefire. But the Biden administration wanted to tabled a temporary ceasefire to avoid an impending Rafah invasion by the Zionist regime and to release all hostages from Hamas and other militant groups. Ramadan is fast approaching. Will suffering Palestinians embrace genocide-less/war less Palestine? 🇵🇸 #palestine #israel #genocide #war #ramadan2024

Surprised #Hamas just declined the negotiations (again) after #israel was willing to release 900 prisoners for 40 hostages? Well, you shouldn’t be! Here’s a reminder to what The Wall Street Journal published a few weeks ago - Sinwar brags to Hamas leaders in #Qatar that he has the Israelis right where he wants them. And where is that exactly? Deep in Gaza. (The longer Israel stays in Gaza, the more the world turns its back on Israel. And indeed, we see the #antisemitism soaring.) Hamas declined the US suggestion, the Egyptians, the Qatarians, and of course - the Israelis. Got it? Hamas never intended to release the hostages. They have zero interest in doing so. This strategy is called asymmetric warfare. More about this strategy in this video: https://lnkd.in/dgmBBV5T So now that the #IDF withdrawal Gaza, will the world stand with us or should it get back in? #standwithisrael #standwithus #antisemitism

UNRWA is going to fire nine UNRWA staff because Israel presented proofs of their involvement in the 7/10 massacre. These proofs left no room for ignoring or debating them. When admitting it, the UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini for the first time was ashamed of talking about “poor Palestinians” and instead called for deliberation of Jewish hostages. After being fired, nine murderers will freely continue their terrorist activities in Gaza just without carrying the UNRWA badges. Another ten murderers will keep working in UNRWA because the proofs against them weren’t so irrefutable. Hundreds of UNRWA staff that are teaching Arab kids to hate and kill Jews, will also continue working in UNRWA. Thousands of UNRWA staff will continue celebrating the attacks on Jews and will keep supporting Hamas with everything they can as they always do. The EU will continue financing UNRWA because last year the Commission’s review of aid to Palestine found no evidence that millions of euros “have been diverted for unintended purposes”. Well, in 74 years of its existence, UNRWA became a terrorist organization supported and financed by useful idiots and antisemites from all over the world. It’s time to abolish it and prosecute all the criminals that are running and covering it including UN Secretary General António Guterres (This caricature was produced in 2023 (!) but UN Watch for years presents the proofs that #UNRWAisHAMAS)
