While brutal force has been used to create Zionist Israel and sustain it thus far, Zionist claims to Palestine are false. Actually, from the five thousand years of known written human history, there has been a continuous Palestinian-Canaanite presence in the Holy Land. Despite the Zionist false claims, the ancient Israelites ruled part of the land for only 85 years (during the reign of Prophets David and Solomon , peace be upon them, and Solomon's son).

 After that, the Egyptians conquered Palestine-Canaan in 925 BC, followed by Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans, before the Arab Muslim rule, starting from 636 AD.

By the Time Jesus, peace be upon him, started his mission, the three population groups of Canaanites, Palestinians, and Israelites were melted together in religion and language. Most of them became Christians when Constantine converted in 313 AD. Then, most of them became Muslims in the 7th and 8th centuries AD.

So, Palestinian Muslims, Christians, and Jews are the ones who have the right to claim descent from ancient Israelites, Palestinians, and Canaanites, not Zionists from other continents.

No matter what the Zionists and their supporters do, they cannot change the will of God, Who promised the Holy Land to Abraham and his descendants, basically the Palestinian Muslims and Christians.

No matter how much persecution and aggression the Zionists and their supporters inflict upon the Palestinian people, they will never be able to force them out of the Holy Land, which Allah, praise to Him, promised for them, and kept His promise ever since.

This is a necessary brief background to understand the US-Backed Zionist Israeli continuous wars against the Arab nation generally, and the Palestinian people in particular, which included the wars of 1948, 1956, 1967, 1978, 1982, the brutal crushing of the two Uprisings (1987-1993 and 2000-2004), 2009, 2012, 2014, 2021, and the current genocidal war on Gaza (Since October 7, 2023), which has culminated a blockade of Gaza since 2007. In addition, the Israeli occupation and apartheid regime launched so many covert operations, raids, and air strikes on many Arab states since 1948.

The following news stories are just examples, not a systematic record, of the Israeli occupation government abuse, mistreatment, and violations of Palestinian human rights, on daily basis.

Israel's genocide in Gaza: 90 Palestinians killed in 48 hours

GAZA, June 14, 2025 (WAFA, PIC, Anadolu) —

At least 90 Palestinians were killed and 605 others were injured in the Gaza Strip over the last 48 hours as a result of the ongoing Israeli genocidal war on the Palestinian coastal territory, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza.

Local health authorities confirmed that the Palestinian death toll from the Israeli onslaught since October 2023 has risen to 55,297 fatalities, with an additional 128,426 people sustaining injuries. The majority of the victims are women and children.

According to the Health Ministry, the death toll since Israel’s resumption of the genocide on March 18 after a two-month truce has also climbed to 5,014, in addition to 16,385 others injured.

Emergency services are still unable to reach many casualties and dead bodies trapped under the rubble or scattered on roads across the war-torn enclave, as Israeli occupation forces continue to target ambulance and civil defense crews, according to the health authorities.

Israel's genocidal onslaught continues undeterred despite calls from the United Nations Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.

Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), June 14, 2025 (WAFA) –

Several Palestinian residents were injured and others detained on Saturday after Israeli colonists attacked the village of Ma'azi Jaba’, a Bedouin community located east of Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem).

According to WAFA correspondent, colonists from the nearby settlement of Adam stormed the village, assaulted residents, and caused multiple injuries of varying severity. Emergency medical crews from Ramallah and Al-Quds (occupied Jerusalem) were prevented from reaching the area due to roadblocks and the closure of the nearby Jaba' military checkpoint, which was sealed with an iron gate.

The Israeli occupation forces later raided the village, breaking into homes and kidnapping a number of residents, including some of those injured in the initial assault.

The incident is the latest in a series of violent attacks and military-imposed restrictions that continue to affect Palestinian communities across the occupied West Bank.

West Bank under siege: Israeli occupation forces seal off cities, restrict movement across region

RAMALLAH, June 14, 2025 (WAFA) – 

For the second consecutive day, Israeli occupation forces have imposed military restrictions across the West Bank, tightening movement through widespread road closures and checkpoint barricades.

In Ramallah and Al-Beereh, the Israeli occupation forces intensified their presence at all major entry and exit points. Military checkpoints were re-established at key junctions, including the entrance to Rawabi, and the iron gates at 'Ain Siniya and Atara were closed. Access to northern Al-Beereh and the eastern entrance of Al-Tayba was also blocked, effectively cutting off the governorate from the rest of the West Bank.

In Aree'ha (Jericho), Israeli troops continued to restrict access to and from the city via all main and secondary checkpoints surrounding it.

Moving to Nablus, the Israeli army set up additional checkpoints around the city, with near-total closures reported at Dair Sharaf, the southern checkpoints of Al-Murabba’a and 'Awarta, and the eastern gate of Bait Foureek. The southern checkpoints of Yatma, 'Aqraba, and Za'tara were also heavily restricted.

In the Jordan Valley, Toubas Governorate experienced intensified closures at the Tayaseer and Al-'Hamra checkpoints for the second day. Local reports indicated these closures have been frequent for more than two years, with soldiers routinely turning back vehicles and pedestrians.

In Salfeet, the Israeli army sealed the northern entrance to the city and blocked access to several surrounding villages including Bruqeen, Qarawat Bani 'Hasan, 'Haris, Kifl 'Haris, Dair Istiya, Kafr Al-Deek, Yasouf, and Marda, effectively cutting them off from main roads.

In Qalqilya, the Israeli occupation forces continue to close the eastern entrance to the city of Qalqilya, along with the entrances to the villages east of the Nabi Elias city, Imateen, and Al-Funduq-'Hajjah—through iron gates. The Israeli occupation forces reportedly fired live ammunition at anyone attempting to approach the checkpoints on foot.

In Al-Khaleel (Hebron), Israeli troops enforced strict closures at all checkpoints leading into and out of the city, barring residents from entering or exiting surrounding towns and villages.

Illegal Israeli settlers escalate land and water sabotage in Al-Khaleel (Hebron) and Aree'ha (Jericho)

Saturday 14-June-2025

RAMALLAH, (PIC)

Groups of the Israeli settlers launched coordinated attacks on Palestinian agricultural land and vital water resources near Al-Khaleel (Hebron) and Aree'ha (Jericho) on Saturday, in a growing pattern of settler violence supported by the Israeli occupation forces (IOFs).

According to local sources, settlers descended on Al-Tayaran neighborhood in the town of Al-Dthahiriya, south of Al-Khalil, bringing with them a herd of around 50 cows which they let loose on private Palestinian property. The settlers reportedly allowed the animals to graze freely on citizens’ land and deliberately wasted water meant for both human and animal consumption by pouring it out on the ground.

In a separate incident, settlers raided the Shalal Al-'Auja community north of Jericho. There, they released sheep into the Al-'Omari area and used water from a local storage tank belonging to the Palestinian community. Residents say they pay for this water, as the area suffers from a lack of access to a consistent public water supply.

“These acts of sabotage are part of a broader effort to push Palestinians off their land. Water is already scarce, and settlers are deliberately making life unlivable,” a resident of Al-'Auja said.

The attacks come amid a sharp increase in settler and IOFs violence across the occupied West Bank.

According to the Palestinian Authority’s Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, April alone saw 1,693 recorded attacks—1,352 by the Israeli military and 341 carried out by settlers.

Palestinian human rights groups warn that settler violence is part of a state-backed campaign to forcibly displace Palestinians from Area C of the West Bank, in violation of international law.

 Israeli occupation forces install new gate, completely isolating Sinjil town near Ramallah

RAMALLAH, June 14, 2025 (WAFA) –

 Israeli occupation forces today installed a new iron gate at the northern entrance of the town of Sinjil, located north of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank. This entrance is the only road leading into and out of the town, effectively cutting it off from surrounding areas.

According to local activist 'Ayid Ghafri, who spoke to WAFA, Israeli forces closed the main road leading to the town and erected the gate there, sealing off access to the town entirely. 

With this new closure, Sinjil is now surrounded by two iron gates and a perimeter fence that has been in place for several months, severely restricting the movement of its residents.

Local residents view the measure as part of a broader policy of collective punishment imposed by Israeli authorities. There is growing concern among the community that this could signal the beginning of a long-term closure of the town.

 Israeli occupation forces install iron gate at entrance to Duma village, south of Nablus

NABLUS, June 14, 2025 (WAFA) –

 Israeli occupation forces today installed an iron gate today at the entrance to the village of Duma, located south of Nablus, effectively sealing off the only road leading in and out of the village.

According to Sulayman Dawabsha, head of the Douma Village Council, the Israeli military closed the village’s sole access point by installing the gate, significantly impacting residents’ ability to move freely.

Dawabsha explained that due to Duma's geographical location, it is one of the few villages in the area that has no direct road connections to neighboring communities. As a result, the blocked entrance serves as the village’s only vital link to the outside world.

The closure is expected to severely affect daily life in Duma, limiting access to essential services and isolating the residents from nearby areas.

 Israeli occupation forces seize homes, turn them into military posts in Toulkarm

Toulkarm, June 14, 2025 (WAFA) –

 Israeli occupation forces today seized several homes across the Toulkarm Governorate in the northern West Bank, converting them into military outposts, according to local eyewitnesses and official sources.

In the village of Shoufa, southeast of Toulkarm, Israeli soldiers stormed the home of Sabir 'Aarif, forcibly evicted him and his family, and informed them they were not allowed to return for a week. The house was then turned into a military barracks.

Eyewitnesses added that Israeli forces also set up a military checkpoint between the villages of Shoufa and Kafr Al-Labbad. They raided a residential building in the same area, where several displaced families from Toulkarm and Nour Shams refugee camps had been sheltering. The residents were forced to evacuate, and the top floor of the building was converted into a surveillance post and military installation. 

In the northern Toulkarm area of Al-Sha'rawiya, Israeli troops continued a large-scale incursion into the town of Zaita that began at dawn. Local sources reported that soldiers raided and searched numerous homes, expelled their occupants, and commandeered several of the properties for military use. 

The army also erected checkpoints throughout the town and interrogated young men. Soldiers further climbed atop the town's main water tank structure, turning it into a lookout post.

Corbyn after charges dropped: We will continue the struggle to stop the genocide in Gaza

Saturday 14-June-2025

LONDON, (PIC)

Veteran British MP and former Labor Party leader Jeremy Corbyn reaffirmed his commitment to continuing the struggle to stop the genocide being committed against Palestinians in Gaza, following the announcement by British police that charges against him had been dropped over his participation in a pro-Palestine demonstration.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Corbyn said, “I am proud to have attended many demonstrations with my friend John McDonnell over the years. Today, the police dropped the case against us following our participation in a demonstration in support of Palestine.”

He added, “But let’s be clear: we will continue the struggle for as long as it takes to stop the genocide in Gaza.”

Corbyn’s remarks come amid a crackdown by British police on pro-Palestinian politicians and activists. He and former MP John McDonnell were summoned for questioning after participating in a popular protest in central London against the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza.

Corbyn, who led the Labor Party from 2015 to 2020, is well known for his anti-colonial stances and support for just causes—chief among them the Palestinian cause. For years, he has been subjected to media and political campaigns accusing him of “anti-Semitism,” seen as attempts to politically criminalize him for his open support of Palestinian rights.

His recent statements, in which he described Israeli crimes in Gaza as “genocide,” sparked fierce backlash from British right-wing circles. Many warned that the targeting of pro-Palestinian voices has become a systematic strategy to exclude them from the political sphere.

Since the beginning of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza in October 2023, the UK has witnessed an unprecedented wave of public solidarity, manifested in dozens of mass protests across major cities such as London, Manchester, and Birmingham. Corbyn has actively participated in these events, alongside union leaders and activists from a variety of political and ethnic backgrounds.

In earlier remarks, Corbyn emphasized that “standing with Gaza is not just a political stance but a humanitarian obligation,” adding that “the silence of Western governments only emboldens the occupation to continue its crimes against Palestinians.”

The decision to drop the charges against Corbyn and McDonnell was widely welcomed by British human rights organizations, which stressed the importance of protecting the right to peaceful protest. These organizations warned that the prosecution of Palestine supporters represents a serious threat to the foundations of democracy in the country.

The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) remains one of the most prominent grassroots movements in Europe advocating for Palestinian rights. Founded in 1982, the PSC organizes widespread events and demonstrations, leads boycott campaigns against companies complicit in the occupation, and applies media and political pressure within Parliament and British civil society.

The campaign enjoys broad support from MPs, parties, and labor unions, and has played a pivotal role in exposing Israeli crimes in Gaza and the West Bank to the British public.

5. It is more accurate to refer to the land-grabbing Israelis, who establish illegal settlements in the Palestinian territory of the West Bank, as illegal Israeli settlers, than referring to them as colonists.

The term colony is a reference to a large entity or a country, such as American states before independence. It was also a reference to Egypt, and India, when they were British colonies.

In addition, the term "colony" represents a positive nostalgic theme, in the minds of native speakers of English, particularly in America and Britain.

6. It is more accurate to use the verbs "abduct" and "kidnap" than the verbs "detain" and "arrest," in reference to taking Palestinian citizens by force to prisons and interrogation centers, by Israeli occupation regime soldiers. This is because the presence of the Israeli occupation regime forces is illegal in the Palestinian territories, and they have no jurisdiction over the Palestinian people.
