UNICEF: The Israeli occupation apartheid regime forces continue to kill an average of two children per day in the Gaza Strip despite the ceasefire, despite the ceasefire

Saturday 22-November-2025

GENEVA, (PIC)

The Israeli occupation apartheid regime forces continue to kill an average of two children per day in the Gaza Strip despite the ceasefire that took effect on 11 October, the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday.

Ricardo Pires, UNICEF spokesperson, told reporters during his weekly press briefing at the United Nations office in Geneva that the death of a young girl in an Israeli strike on Khan Younus on Thursday, along with the killing of seven children a day earlier in Gaza City, shows that the ceasefire has not ended children’s suffering.

He said at least 67 children have been killed since the ceasefire began, in addition to dozens who have been wounded.

“These figures are not just numbers, they are children with families and dreams,” Pires stressed, describing the conditions facing Gaza’s children as “forced, bleak, and devoid of any safe place.” He urged the international community to stop normalizing their ongoing suffering.

Pires added that UNICEF’s extensive operations in Gaza remain insufficient to meet the scale of the crisis. “If aid arrived with the speed and volume required, we could do far more to save lives,” he said.

According to UNICEF, hundreds of thousands of children are living in tents with no basic protection, facing harsh winter conditions without heating, insulation, or blankets, conditions that severely worsen their humanitarian situation and expose them to cold and disease.

GAZA, (PIC)

A Palestinian citizen was killed by Israeli occupation forces on Friday morning amid ongoing airstrikes, artillery shelling, gunfire, and demolitions in fresh Israeli ceasefire violations.

A medical source confirmed the killing of Bilal Wisha'h on Friday morning after being shot by Israeli forces outside the “yellow line” south of Khan Younus.

The Israeli forces also carried out demolition operations targeting residential buildings east of Khan Younus early Friday.

Local sources reported a large-scale demolition operation by Israeli forces within the yellow line in eastern Gaza City.

Meanwhile, Israeli warplanes launched an airstrike east of Gaza City, while Israeli naval boats opened fire on the coast of Rafa'h in southern Gaza.

Israeli tanks also opened fire within the yellow line south of Khan Younus.

Fresh airstrikes were also launched by Israeli aircraft on areas east of Khan Younus.

According to local sources, Israeli military vehicles opened fire east of El-Buraij and El-Maghazi refugee camps in central Gaza.

Separately, the Israeli forces claimed to have targeted five resistance fighters after they emerged from a tunnel in Rafa'h, although no Palestinian confirmation was issued.

Since the ceasefire began on October 10, 2025, the Israeli occupation has committed hundreds of violations, resulting in 313 martyrs and 760 injured.

Three Palestinian civilians sustained bullet injuries on Saturday morning when the Israeli occupation forces (IOFs) opened fire at them in central and northern Gaza.

According to local sources, two citizens were wounded by Israeli army fire outside the yellow line east of El-Buraij refugee camp in central Gaza.

Another Palestinian was injured by Israeli gunfire behind the yellow line east of Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza.

The yellow line is an Israeli-drawn boundary running along the north, south and east of the Gaza Strip.

Meanwhile, medical sources said that the body of one martyr was retrieved following an earlier Israeli strike on Gaza City’s Tel El-Hawa neighborhood.

In another context, the representative of the World Health Organization in Palestine, Rick Peeperkorn, announced that more than 16,500 Palestinian patients still need medical evacuation from the Gaza Strip.

Speaking at a news conference in Geneva on Friday, Peeperkorn said that of the 36 hospitals in Gaza, only half are partially operational, adding that “since the ceasefire started, 26 points for healthcare services have been reopened, and eight new points have been established.”

Since the ceasefire began, WHO has also managed to deliver 2,050 parcels of medical supplies to Gaza, according to Peeperkorn.

However, 343 types out of 622 essential drugs at the Palestinian health ministry’s stores are now completely out of stock, he said

Civil society orgs: Palestinian children are living through worst humanitarian disaster

Thursday 20-November-2025

GAZA, (PIC)

Palestinian civil society organizations said on Thursday that Israeli occupation forces have killed more than 19,000 children and wounded 28,000 others since October 7, 2023, a toll they described as the highest in the history of modern conflicts involving children.

The statement was issued by the Palestinian NGO Network on the occasion of World Children’s Day, observed every year on 20 November. The network noted that this year’s commemoration comes as Palestinian children face what it called “the worst humanitarian catastrophe being perpetrated against childhood.”

The network said that official statistics reveal the extent of widespread destruction to the educational environment, with hundreds of schools, kindergartens, and childcare centers in the Gaza Strip completely or partially destroyed. It also documented the presence of more than 56,000 orphaned children who have lost one or both parents.

The organizations called on the United Nations and its specialized agencies, as well as human rights and humanitarian groups, to take urgent action to protect Palestinian children, especially in the Gaza Strip, stressing that they are “direct victims of the occupation’s crimes.”

The statement emphasized that World Children’s Day was established to promote dignity, justice, and basic rights for children, including the right to life, education, health care, and protection from violence, as set out in the Convention on the Rights of the Child of 1989 and the Declaration of the Rights of the Child of 1959. Yet, according to the network, Palestinian children “are subjected to every form of violation, even to a methodical campaign of genocide and official measures aimed at erasing their existence.”

The network added that the Israeli occupation continues to detain hundreds of Palestinian children in its prisons “in blatant violation of their most basic human rights,” stressing the need for urgent action to protect them and safeguard their dignity as a “moral and humanitarian duty.”

Calls for accountability and emergency relief

The organizations urged the implementation of international law regarding acts of genocide committed by occupation forces and the prosecution of those responsible. They also called for urgent measures to save children’s lives by providing medical treatment, evacuating critical cases outside the Gaza Strip, and ensuring the entry of food and medicine, particularly amid deteriorating humanitarian conditions caused by ongoing bombardment and the destruction of shelters and schools hosting displaced families.

The network further encouraged international and humanitarian institutions to include children and other vulnerable groups in recovery programs, emergency plans, and humanitarian response efforts, and to provide psychological and social support along with formal and community-based protection programs, ensuring equality and non-discrimination of any kind.

Civil society groups concluded their statement by stressing that protecting Palestinian children is “a true test of the world’s humanity,” calling for immediate action to halt violations and secure a safe future for children in Gaza and across all Palestinian territories.

The Israeli occupation forces (IOFs) continued to violate the ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip, carrying out more airstrikes, artillery shelling, and demolitions.

The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) reporter said that the IOFs detonated several homes east of Khan Yunis in southern Gaza.

The Israeli army also carried out multiple artillery and aerial attacks on the eastern areas of Khan Younus.

In addition, Israeli aircraft carried out strikes in the north and east of Rafa'h in southern Gaza, amid heavy gunfire from tanks.

The IOFs also detonated homes and buildings in Gaza City’s El-Shuja’iya neighborhood.

99 out of 330 Palestinian bodies handed over by Israel identified

Friday 21-November-2025

GAZA, (PIC)

Ma'hmoud 'Aashour, spokesperson for the Forensic Evidence Department in Gaza, announced that specialized teams have so far been able to identify 99 bodies out of the 330 that were recently handed over by Israel via the International Committee of the Red Cross.

'Aashour explained that the teams are continuing their intensive work to complete the identification process for the remaining bodies in preparation for their return to families or proper burial in accordance with the established procedures.

Israel handed over the 330 bodies, which had been withheld after various incidents since the start of the genocide on Gaza on October 7, 2023, as part of the prisoner exchange deal under the ceasefire agreement between the Palestinian resistance and the occupying state.

Samee'h 'Hamad, a member of the body management committee and forensic evidence specialist, revealed in previous statements that all the released bodies bore signs of severe torture leading to death or clear indications of field executions.

The committee published photos of the bodies on the “Sehati” platform run by Gaza’s Ministry of Health to help families identify the victims, as Israel refused to provide any personal data for the victims.

According to 'Hamad, the bodies showed horrific signs: blindfolded eyes, hands tied behind the back, ropes around the neck, severe fractures, deep wounds to the head, abdomen, and neck, as well as burn marks, torn skin, and facial disfigurements.

'Hamad said that Israel is “escalating its crimes against Palestinians, both living and dead,” noting that the lack of data worsens the suffering of families searching for missing loved ones. Gaza lacks the technical resources needed to examine and identify the bodies, forcing authorities to bury many in mass graves.

Residents of Toulkarm and families forcibly displaced from the Nour Shams refugee camp have issued calls for a public protest on Sunday at 1 p.m. (local time) outside El-Nasr building, denouncing forced displacement and Israel’s ongoing assault on the camp.

Activists from Nour Shams said the demonstration aims to raise their voices and demand an immediate return to the camp after more than 10 months of continuous suffering.

They emphasized that “this moment belongs to everyone,” urging all residents of Toulkarm and the camp to unite and respond to the call during what they described as one of the most difficult periods in the community’s history.

Displaced families from Nour Shams have been holding weekly protests, with the participation of women and children, affirming that forced displacement is a crime and that returning home is an inalienable right.

Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation forces have maintained their assault on Toulkarm city and the adjacent Nour Shams camp for the 287th consecutive day, carrying out near-daily raids, arrests, and widespread destruction.

The ongoing offensive has forcibly displaced more than 5,000 families, over 25,000 people, from the Toulkarm and Nour Shams camps. More than 600 homes have been completely destroyed, while 2,573 others have been partially damaged, rendering both camps largely uninhabitable.

So far, the assault has killed 14 Palestinians, including a child and two women, one of them eight months pregnant. Dozens more have been injured or detained, while extensive damage has been inflicted on homes, infrastructure, shops, and vehicles.

Illegal Israeli settlers poison sheep owned by Palestinians in Ramallah, carry out attacks in El-Khaleel (Hebron)

Saturday 22-November-2025

RAMALLAH, (PIC)

A group of the illegal Israeli settlers poisoned sheep in the village of El-Mughayyir, east of Ramallah, on Saturday morning and carried out assaults in several areas in El-Khaleel (Hebron).

The illegal settlers raided El-Khalayil area and poisoned a flock of sheep belonging to citizen Rizq Abu Na’eem, leading to the death of three of them.

The village of El-Mughayyir is subjected to continuous settler attacks, including burning vehicles, writing racist slogans, grazing their livestock on village lands, and most recently stealing agricultural equipment.

In El-Khaleel (Hebron), the illegal Israeli settler militias assaulted a farmer and damaged his agricultural tractor near Khirbet Susiya in Masafir Yatta, south of the city.

The illegal Israeli settlers, accompanied by Israeli occupation forces, also searched the vehicle of journalist A'hmed 'Halayqa while he was covering events in the town of Bait Ula, west of The illegal settlers.

Settlers had previously prevented farmers from reaching their lands in Bait Ula, northwest of the illegal settlers.

The West Bank continues to witness an escalation in settler attacks and violations by occupation forces against citizens and their property, amid Palestinian calls for confronting and resisting these assaults.

Illegal Israeli settler attacks escalate across the West Bank as new outpost rises near El-Quds (occupied Jerusalem)

Friday 21-November-2025

WEST BANK, (PIC)

Groups of the illegal Israeli settlers carried out a wave of coordinated attacks across the occupied West Bank overnight, torching homes, destroying agricultural property, and establishing yet another illegal outpost, all under the protection of the Israeli occupation forces (IOFs).

Local sources reported that settlers set fire to four residential villas in the Tarouja area between the villages of El-Lubban E-Sharqiya and 'Ammouriya, south of Nablus. The fires caused extensive destruction to the structures and surrounding property.

In the southern West Bank, residents of Khirbet El-Majaz in the Masafir Yatta area of El-Khaleel (Hebron) came under a violent settler raid, while additional groups attacked a plant nursery in the town of Dair Sharaf, west of Nablus, vandalizing its contents and stealing several trees.

Elsewhere, settlers burned an agricultural farm near the town of Abu Fala'h, northeast of Ramallah, following another raid in the area. In the nearby town of 'Huwwara, south of Nablus, a large blaze consumed a vehicle scrapyard, resulting in major property losses. East of the city, settlers assaulted farmland in Bait Foureek as part of a growing pattern of attacks targeting the region.

Hours later, settlers erected a new outpost near the Bedouin community of El-'Hathroura in El-Khan El-A'hmar area, east of El-Quds (occupied Jerusalem), in a move Palestinian officials say is intended to restrict grazing, seize additional Palestinian land, and pressure residents to leave.

The Jerusalem Governorate said settlers, backed by IOFs, had recently demolished several homes in the community and assaulted residents while soldiers arrested three young men from the area.

The Bedouin community in El-Khan El-A'hmar has faced repeated settler violence aimed at forcible displacement, as part of a broader strategy to entrench settlements and expand Israeli control.

Palestinian groups issued urgent calls for confronting settler attacks “with every available means of resistance,” warning that the surge in assaults forms part of a systematic campaign to push Palestinians out of their land amid the escalating repression across the West Bank.

Illegal Israeli settler burn a Palestinian-owned car scrapyard in 'Huwwara

Thursday 20-November-2025

WEST BANK, (PIC)

A group of the illegal Israeli settlers, on Thursday evening, set a car scrapyard on fire in the town of 'Huwwara, south of Nablus, in a new attack amid a growing wave of violence carried out by settlers across the occupied West Bank.

According to local sources, groups of the illegal Israeli settlers from the illegal settlement of “Yitzhar” attacked the area located between the towns of 'Huwwara and 'Odala and set fire to the car scrapyard owned by a Palestinian citizen, Mu'hammed El-Dallal. The blaze triggered massive fires and explosions caused by burning vehicles, sending columns of smoke rising over the area adjacent to the bypass road.

The sources confirmed that the attack is part of a series of assaults aimed at increasing pressure on Palestinians and pushing them to leave their land.

According to the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, settlers carried out more than 7,154 attacks against Palestinians in the West Bank during the two years that coincided with Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, leading to the killing of 33 Palestinians and the displacement of 33 communities.

Officials and human rights advocates warn that these attacks are often carried out under the protection of Israeli forces and form part of a systematic policy aimed at expanding settlements and imposing new facts on the ground by force in Palestinian territories.

"Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul, unless for a soul, or for corruption in the land, it is as if he had killed humankind entirely" (The Holy Quran, Al-Ma-ida, 5: 32).

"And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, wherein he will abide eternally, and Allah has become angry with him, and has cursed him, and has prepared for him a great torment" (Al-Nisa, 4: 93).

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.

Editorial Notes about terms & names of people and places:

1. Names of people and places have been standardized to match standard Arabic grammatical rules.

2. Underlined letters and letters preceded by an apostrophe are references to Arabic letter sounds, which does not exist in the English alphabet.

3. The English letter i is equivalent to the Arabic short vowel known as kasra, as in Ibraheem and Qasim as well as in the English words sit and bit. So, it is incorrect to use it as a long vowel for such Arabic names as Jameel and Jibreel.

4. The English letter e is equivalent to the Arabi short vowel known as fat'ha, as in A'hmed and Mu'hammed.

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.
