بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

"مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَٰلِكَ كَتَبْنَا عَلَىٰ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَ نَفْسًا بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسَادٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا"  (الْمَائِدَةُ ، 5: 32).

"وَمَنْ يَقْتُلْ مُؤْمِنًا مُّتَعَمِّدًا فَجَزَاؤُهُ جَهَنَّمُ خَالِدًا فِيهَا وَغَضِبَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَعَنَهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُ عَذَابًا عَظِيمًا" (النِّسَاءُ ، 4: 93).

"إِنْ أَحْسَنتُمْ أَحْسَنتُمْ لِأَنفُسِكُمْ ۖ وَإِنْ أَسَأْتُمْ فَلَهَا ۚ فَإِذَا جَاءَ وَعْدُ الْآخِرَةِ لِيَسُوءُوا وُجُوهَكُمْ وَلِيَدْخُلُوا الْمَسْجِدَ كَمَا دَخَلُوهُ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ وَلِيُتَبِّرُوا مَا عَلَوْا تَتْبِيراً ‎(الإسْرَاءُ ، 17: 7). 

In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

"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).

"If you do good, you do good for yourselves; and if you do evil, (you do it) to yourselves. Then, when the latter (final) promise came, they (your enemies) will sadden your faces, and to enter the Masjid (in Jerusalem), as they entered it the first time, and will destroy what they had taken over with (total) destruction (Al-Isra, 17: 7).

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.

Gaza death toll reaches 54,772 since start of Israeli aggression in October 2023 - Medical sources

GAZA, June 7, 2025 (WAFA, Anadolu) -

The death toll in the Gaza Strip has reached 54,772, the majority of whom were women and children, since the beginning of the Israeli aggression in October 2023. At least 125,834 others have also been injured.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed that of the total casualties, 4,497 civilians have been killed and 13,793 have been injured since March 18, 2025, when the Israeli occupation resumed its aggression on the Gaza Strip after breaking the ceasefire agreement.

The Ministry stated that 95 slain civilians and 304 injured individuals were brought to hospitals in Gaza during the past 48 hours.

This toll remains incomplete, as many victims remain trapped under rubble, inaccessible to ambulance and rescue crews.

The Israeli occupation army resumed its attacks on the Gaza Strip on March 18 and has since killed 4,497 people and injured 13,793 others, shattering a ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement that took hold in January.

Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.

Massacre leaves 15 Palestinian killed, 50 others injured, in Gaza

GAZA, June 7, 2025 (WAFA) -

At least 15 civilians were killed and 50 others injured on Saturday in a new massacre perpetrated by the Israeli occupation forces in the Sabra neighborhood of Gaza City.

Local sources reported that Israeli warplanes targeted a house with two missiles in the Sabra neighborhood, killing at least 15 civilians, including six children, and wounding more than 50.

Rescue crew sources estimated that the death toll could exceed 30, given the large number of missing persons as a result of the Israeli shelling of the house. They described the situation at the scene as dire.

They indicated that their capabilities on the ground are very limited, but that the crews are trying to carry out their duties but are in need of equipment. Efforts are ongoing to rescue any survivors and recover the bodies from the targeted house.

They noted that the Israeli shelling of the Sabra neighborhood resulted in three vehicles catching fire.

Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli occupation has been committing genocidal crimes in the Gaza Strip, leaving more than 180,000 dead and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 11,000 missing, in addition to hundreds of thousands of displaced persons, and a famine that has claimed the lives of many, including children, in addition to widespread destruction.

 Israel occupation orders forcible evacuation of tens of thousands in northern Gaza

GAZA, June 7, 2025 (WAFA) –

The Israeli occupation army Saturday ordered the forcible evacuation of tens of thousands of civilians in northern Gaza.

Local sources said the evacuation order targeted the Abdul 'Rahman neighborhood in northwest Gaza City and the Al-Nahdha neighborhood in Jabalya refugee camp.

Residents of these areas are previously displaced civilians who had been forced to flee northern Gaza to the south at the start of the genocidal war, before being temporarily allowed to return.

According to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), as of May 28, 81% of Gaza’s territory had been declared Israeli military zones or placed under evacuation orders.

OCHA added that since the resumption of the Israeli aggression on March 18, the army has issued 31 evacuation orders, covering about 229.4 square kilometers of Gaza, orders that remain in effect.

A recent report by the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) stated that at least 1.9 million people, or nearly 90% of Gaza’s population, have been displaced during the ongoing aggression, many of them repeatedly, with some forced to flee ten times or more.

UNRWA warns Gaza aid distribution model is not working

NEW YORK, June 7, 2025 (WAFA) –

UNRWA Communications Director Juliette Touma said the current aid distribution model in the Gaza Strip is not working. “It’s as if you’re inviting people to their own death,” she said.

She stressed that the only way to deliver humanitarian aid at scale and safely to the people of Gaza is through the United Nations, including UNRWA.

She said that UNRWA’s impact during the ceasefire was tangible and urged that the agency be allowed to carry out its work.

UN rapporteur accuses GHF of using aid as “weapon of war” in Gaza

Saturday 7-June-2025

GAZA, (PIC)

Mary Lawlor, the UN special rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders, has accused the so-called “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation” (GHF) of using aid as a weapon of war to displace and humiliate people in the Gaza Strip.

In an interview with Al Jazeera on Saturday, Lawlor said that the right to receive aid should not be taken away from anyone anywhere in the world, calling what is happening in the Gaza Strip as “forced starvation of civilians.”

“The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation [backed by Israel and the US] is using aid as a weapon of war to displace, humiliate and corral civilians. It is completely inhumane,” Lawlor added.

Activists aboard Madleen send message to the people of Gaza on the occasion of Eidul Adh'ha

Saturday 7-June-2025

CYPRUS, (PIC)

The Madleen ship, part of the Freedom Flotilla and launched from Italy, is approaching the shores of Gaza Strip amid concerns that the Israeli occupation army may violently target it. Despite these fears, those organizing the voyage remain determined to continue their journey to break the blockade on the besieged enclave.

Thiago Avila, a member of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, said in media remarks on Saturday that international coordination had been conducted to ensure the protection of participants aboard Madleen as it heads towards Gaza. He emphasized that they anticipate a violent attack by Israeli forces on the ship.

Avila explained that all participants have been trained on how to react if Israel insists on killing them, stressing that they are committed to breaking the blockade on Gaza and delivering humanitarian aid. He also pointed out that it is impossible to ask for permission from the authorities committing crimes in Gaza.

The Madleen ship carries food, medicine, and even water for the residents of the enclave.

Activists aboard Madleen broadcast excerpts from a message to the people of Gaza on the occasion of Eidul Adh'ha, saying, “You deserve life, freedom, peace, and justice… We will not stop until Palestine is liberated… And the only sound on the morning of 'Eid will be the sound of Eid itself.”

Last Wednesday, Israel’s Broadcasting Authority reported that the Israeli government had decided to prevent Madleen, which set sail from Italy in an attempt to break the Gaza blockade, from approaching or docking at Gaza’s shores.

According to the Authority, there was initially an inclination to allow the ship to reach Gaza as long as it did not pose a security threat, but the decision was later reversed “to prevent setting a precedent that might be repeated.”

The ship is carrying 12 people, including Swedish activist Greta Thunberg and Irish actor Liam Cunningham.

Previously, in early May, the ship was attacked by a drone while attempting to break the blockade, causing a hole in its structure and a fire at its front, according to sources from the coalition organizing the voyage.

===============================================================================================================================

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.
