      GAZA CITY (Ma’an) — A Palestinian teen was shot and killed by Israeli forces, while three others were injured during protests on Wednesday night, east of Rafah in the southern besieged Gaza Strip.

      Ashraf al-Qidra, the spokesperson for the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza, confirmed that a 15-year-old Palestinian was killed after Israeli forces fired live ammunition at him.

      The ministry identified the killed teen as Muamen Abu Eyada , from the al-Brazil neighborhood in Rafah in southern Gaza.

      The ministry added that three other Palestinians were injured during the protests due to Israeli live ammunition.

      Throughout the unrest, rights groups have repeatedly denounced what they have termed Israeli forces’ “shoot-to-kill” policy against Palestinians who did not constitute a threat at the time of their death or who could have been subdued in a non-lethal manner.

    The Palestinian Prisoners’ Society (PPS) has reported that Israeli soldiers killed, on Tuesday at dawn, a young Palestinian man after abducting him from his home, and repeatedly assaulting him.

    The PPS said undercover Israeli soldiers abducted Mohammad Zaghloul al-Khatib , 24, from his home in Beit Rima town, northwest of Ramallah, in central West Bank.

    It quoted his brother stating that nearly 30 Israeli soldiers invaded the family home to abduct Mohammad, before continuously and repeatedly assaulting him in his home until he fell unconscious.

    He added that the soldiers then took him brother to an unknown destination, and the family was later contacted by an Israeli intelligence officer, asking them whether Mohammad had any “preexisting conditions,” and they assured the officer that their son was completely healthy.

    His mother said that the soldiers beat him on the head, then smashed his head several times against the wall until he fell down, unconscious. They handcuffed his prone body, then left the scene, leaving him unconscious and handcuffed with no medical attention.

    On Tuesday morning, the Palestinian District Coordination Office was contacted by its Israeli counterpart, informing them that Mohammad was dead, without setting a date for transferring his corpse back to his family.

    The family said the soldiers resorted to the excessive use of force against Mohammad, continuously beating him up while abducting him, and accused the military of executing their son.

    Israeli soldiers killed, Monday, a young Palestinian man near the al-Mowahel military checkpoint, located near the illegal Israeli settlement of Keryat Arba in Hebron, in the southern part of the occupied West Bank.

    The soldiers shot the young man with multiple live rounds, then left him lying on the ground and prevented ambulances from reaching him. He eventually bled to death from his wounds.

    Although the soldiers claimed that the young man had attempted to carry out a stabbing attack at the checkpoint, they presented no evidence for this claim, and the video released by the Israeli military shows al-Jabari’s body lying on the ground far from the checkpoint in the middle of the street.

    This is presumably where he was standing where he was shot, and the location is at least twenty meters away from the checkpoint.

    The Palestinian has been identified as Wael Abdul-Fattah al-Ja’bari, a 27-year-old Palestinian, from Hebron.

    The slain Palestinian is a married father of two children, and was shot just meters away from his home.

    Israeli forces reportedly shot the youth with several bullets throughout his body and prevented the access of ambulance crews to the site of the incident, leaving the youth to bleed to death.

    No Israeli soldiers were injured or hurt in any way, as the young man was shot while far from the checkpoint.

      Hébron (Territoires palestiniens) - Un Palestinien armé d’un couteau a été abattu lundi après avoir tenté d’attaquer des soldats israéliens postés en Cisjordanie, un territoire palestinien occupé par Israël, a annoncé une porte-parole militaire.

      Aucun soldat n’a été blessé lors de cette tentative d’attaque qui s’est produite près de la colonie israélienne de Kyriat Arba, dans le sud de la Cisjordanie, a-t-elle ajouté. La police palestinienne a identifié le Palestinien tué comme Waël Jaabari, âgé de 27 ans.

      La colonie de Kyriat Arba située près de Hébron a été le théâtre de nombreuses attaques palestiniennes dans le passé.

      La dernière attaque au couteau en Cisjordanie remonte au 26 juillet, lorsque trois Israéliens ont été blessés près de Ramallah. L’assaillant palestinien a été tué.

      De nombreuses attaques au couteau contre des Israéliens ces dernières années ont été menées par des Palestiniens que les autorités israéliennes qualifient de « loups solitaires ».

      Des manifestations ont donné lieu à des heurts avec des soldats vendredi. Ces événements ne devraient pas remettre en question la trêve en vigueur depuis une semaine.

      Deux Palestiniens ont été tués vendredi 17 août par des tirs de soldats israéliens dans la bande de Gaza, lors de manifestations et de heurts le long de la frontière, en plein effort diplomatique pour instaurer un cessez-le-feu durable.

      Cette journée de vendredi avait valeur de test sur la solidité de la trêve observée depuis une semaine par l’armée israélienne et les groupes armés palestiniens, après des mois de tensions dans et autour de l’enclave.

      Selon le ministère de la santé gazaoui, deux Palestiniens ont été tués et des dizaines d’autres blessés par balle lors de manifestations de quelques milliers de Gazaouis et de confrontations avec des soldats postés sur la barrière de sécurité israélienne.
      (...)
      Ce vendredi était donc attendu. La mobilisation est restée moindre que certains vendredis qui avaient réuni jusqu’à des dizaines de milliers de personnes, mais deux Palestiniens ont été tués. Karim Abou Fatayer , 30 ans, a été mortellement atteint par des tirs israéliens non loin du camp de réfugiés d’Al-Boureij. Sadi Mouammar , 26 ans, a lui succombé à un tir dans la tête à l’est de Rafah, selon le ministère gazaoui de la santé. Soixante-dix personnes ont été blessées par balle et environ 200 autres par d’autres moyens, notamment des gaz lacrymogènes.

      Au moins 171 Gazaouis ont été tués par des tirs israéliens depuis le 30 mars. Pour la première fois depuis 2014, un soldat israélien a été tué, le 20 juillet.

  • Gaza : deux Palestiniens tués par des tirs israéliens, mais la trêve semble tenir
    AFP / (10 août 2018 21h22
    https://www.romandie.com/news/ZOOM-Gaza-deux-Palestiniens-tu-s-par-des-tirs-isra-liens-mais-la-tr-ve-semble-tenir/944436.rom

    Deux Palestiniens ont été tués vendredi dans la bande de Gaza par des tirs de soldats israéliens lors de manifestations et de heurts le long de la barrière de séparation, sans que la trêve fragile instaurée entre le Hamas et Israël paraisse remise en cause.

    Les protestations du vendredi étaient considérées comme un test des intentions du mouvement islamiste Hamas et de ses alliés dans l’enclave palestinienne sous blocus, après un sévère accès de fièvre jeudi.

    Environ 2.000 Palestiniens ont manifesté et brûlé des pneus à l’est de la ville de Gaza, a constaté un journaliste de l’AFP.

    Avec d’autres rassemblements ailleurs le long de la barrière israélienne, quelques milliers de personnes en tout se sont déplacées, loin des mobilisations antérieures qui ont pu réunir des dizaines de milliers de Gazaouis.

    Un secouriste de 21 ans, Abdallah al-Qatati , a succombé après avoir été atteint à la poitrine à l’est de Rafah (sud de la bande de Gaza). Il s’agit du 2e secouriste au moins à avoir été tué par les tirs israéliens depuis le 30 mars. Un autre Palestinien Ali Al-Aloul, 55 ans, a également été tué vendredi par l’armée israélienne.

    Par ailleurs, 307 Palestiniens ont été blessés -certains par des gaz lacrymogènes-, dont deux journalistes et cinq secouristes, a indiqué le ministère local de la Santé. Au moins 131 d’entre eux ont été blessés par balles.

      (...) The incidents today, 10 August 2018, were as follows:

      At approximately 16:00, thousands of civilians, including women, children and entire families, started swarming to 5 encampments established by the Supreme National Authority for the Great March of Return and Breaking Siege along the border fence, east of the Gaza Strip’s governorates. They raised flags, and chanted slogans and national songs in addition to flying kites and firing balloons, while hundreds of them, including children and women, approached the border fence, set fire to tires and attempted to throw stones at the Israeli forces. The participants were present around 300 meters away from the main border fence.

      According to observations by PCHR’s fieldworkers, Israeli tanks stationed in front of the demonstrators and heavily opened fire at them and their surroundings in an attempt to disperse them. The Israeli tanks also fired sound and smoke bombs at the demonstrators for the first time. Moreover, the Israeli forces’ snipers deliberately and selectively opened fire at the participants present around 200 meters away from the border fence. The Israeli shooting resulted in the killing of 2 Palestinian civilians, including a paramedic, in eastern Rafah. The abovementioned civilians were wounded at approximately 18:15, while they were around 50-100 meters away from the border fence when an Israeli tank heavily opened fire at the demonstrators, east of the city. In less than an hour of their injury, medical sources at the European Hospital declared their death. Those civilians killed were identified as:

      ‘Abdullah Sabri ‘Atiyiah al-Qitati ( 22), a volunteer paramedic in pulse of life youth team, from Rafah. ‘Abdullah was hit with a live bullet that entered and exited his back.
      Ali Sa’ied ‘Ali al-‘Aloul (55), from Rafah, who was hit with a live bullet that entered his chest from the right side and exited from the left side.

      The Israeli shooting which continued until 20:00 resulted in the wounding of 143 civilians, including 22 children, 3 women, 4 paramedics, and 2 journalists. Forty-four of those wounded sustained serious wounds. Among those wounded, 112 were hit with live bullets while the rest of them were hit with direct tear gas canisters. In addition, dozens of civilians suffered tear gas inhalation and seizures after tear gas canisters were heavily fired by the soldiers stationed along the border fence and by drones hovering over the protesters.
