Summary Israeli violations of international law and international humanitarian law in theoPt continued during the reporting period (21 – 27 January 2016). Shooting: Israeli forces have continued to commit crimes, inflicting civilian casualties. They have also continued to use excessive force against Palestinian civilians participating in peaceful protests in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the majority of whom were youngsters. Occupied East Jerusalem witnessed similar attacks. During the reporting period, Israeli forces killed three Palestinian civilians, including two children, in the West Bank. Moreover, they wounded 22 civilians, including three children; 12 of whom, including a child, were wounded in the Gaza Strip while the remaining others were wounded in the West Bank.

In the West Bank, Israeli forces killed three Palestinian civilians, including two children, and wounded 11 others, including two children also. Five of the wounded persons were hit with live bullets and five others were hit with rubber­coated metal bullets. In the West Bank, killings committed by Israeli forces were as follows: In one of the most heinous crimes committed by Israeli settlers, on 23 January 2016, a security guard of”Anatot” settlement, northeast of occupied Jerusalem, killed Ruqaya Abu Tabeekh (13), from Anata village, northeast of occupied Jerusalem. Israeli forces claimed that the girl had fought with her family and went out of the house with a knife in her hand to carry out a stabbing and put end to her life. However, her family said that the Israeli forces killed the girl in cold blood, as she was not holding a knife and had never thought about carrying out any attacks in spite of the fight they had with her soon before she was killed. On 25 January 2016, security officers shot dead two persons who carried outa stabbing in “Beit Horon” settlement in Beit Our al­Fouqa village, southwest of Ramallah. The two persons were identified as Ibrahim Allan (23), from Beit Our al­Tahta, southwest of Ramallah, and Hussein Abu Ghosh (17), from Qalandia refugee camp, north of Jerusalem. In the Gaza Strip, Israeli forces wounded 12 Palestinian civilians, including a child, who participated in peaceful protests near the border fence between the Gaza Strip and Israel. Six of them were hit with live bullets and the six others were hit with rubber­coated metal bullets. As part of Israeli attacks along the border area in the Gaza Strip, on 24 January 2016, Israeli forces stationed at the border fence between the Gaza Strip and Israel, east of Khan Yunis, opened fire at agricultural lands, east of al­Fokhari and Khuza’a villages to the west of the said fence. However, no casualties were reported. Concerning Israeli airstrikes, on 25 January 2016, Israeli warplanes fired two missiles at areas of evacuated settlement, northwest of Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip. Moreover, a warplane fired a missile at a military training site of Palestinian armed groups, southwest of Deir al­Balah, in the central Gaza Strip. The missiles rocked the targeted area causing material damage, but no casualties were reported. In the context of Israeli attacks against Palestinian fishermen in the Gaza Strip Sea, on 27 January 2016, Israeli gunboats opened fire at Palestinian fishing boats sailing off al­Waha shore, northwest of Beit Lahia, north of the Gaza Strip. A gunboat approached a fishing boat that was sailing 1.5 nautical miles off the shore and boarded by four fishermen. Israeli naval forces arrested the four fishermen and confiscated the boat. At approximately 21:00, on the same day, Israeli forces released the fishermen while kept the boat in their custody. Incursions: During the reporting period,Israeli forces conducted at least 73 military incursions into Palestinian communities in the West Bank and four ones in occupied East Jerusalem.During these incursions, Israeli forces arrested at least 47Palestinian civilians, including seven children. Elevenof these civilians, including four children,were arrested in East Jerusalem. Among the arrested were Hatem Qafisha (56), PLC member representing the Change and Reform Bloc of Hamas movement, and engineer Essa al­Ja’bari (49), a leader in Hamas movement and former Minister in the 10th Palestinian Government. Both of them were arrested from their houses in Hebron. Efforts to create Jewish Majority In the context of house demolitions and demolition notices issued on grounds of non­ licensing construction works, on 22 January 2016, Dabash family was obliged to self­demolish their house in sour Baher village, southwest of occupied Jerusalem, under the pretext of non­ licensing. They self­demolished the house to avoid paying the fine demolition costs to the Israeli municipality. It should be noted that the 80­square­meter house was built 20 years ago. The Israeli forces imposed fines on the family several times for building without a license, but a final decision was taken to the Israeli court to oblige the family self­demolish the house on 24 January 2016. On 23 January 2016, Israeli forces accompanied by special forces and police officers moved into a number of neighbourhoods in Silwan village, south of the Old City in East Jerusalem. They distributed notices to owners of a number of residential buildings and commercial facilities to refer to the municipality. On 27 January 2016, Israeli municipality vehicles demolished an underconstruction house in al­ Sal’ah neighbourhood in al­Mukaber Mount village, southeast of occupied Jerusalem. The house belongs to Mousa Surri, who was finishing the house to move in along with his family within the coming weeks. The house cost him NIS 130,000. On the same day, Israeli municipality vehicles demolished a house belonging to the family of Kefaya al­Resheq, north of occupied Jerusalem. The house sheltering 19 family members was demolished in favour of establishing Road 21 that has been planned for since the 90s. Restrictions on movement: Israel continued to impose a tight closure of the oPt, imposing severe restrictions on the movement of Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem. The illegal closure of the Gaza Strip, which has been steadily tightened since June 2007 has had a disastrous impact on the humanitarian and economic situation in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli authorities impose measures to undermine the freedom of trade, including the basic needs for the Gaza Strip population and the agricultural and industrial products to be exported. For 9 consecutive years, Israel has tightened the land and naval closure to isolate the Gaza Strip from the West Bank, including occupied Jerusalem, and other countries around the world. This resulted in grave violations of the economic, social and cultural rights and a deterioration of living conditions for 1.8 million people. The Israeli authorities have established Karm Abu Salem (Kerem Shaloum) as the sole crossing for imports and exports in order to exercise its control over the Gaza Strip’s economy. They also aim at imposing a complete ban on the Gaza Strip’s exports. The Israeli closure raised the rate of poverty to 38.8%, 21.1% of which suffer from extreme poverty. Moreover, the rate of unemployment increased up to 44%, which reflects the unprecedented economic deterioration in the Gaza Strip. Settlement activities: On 21 January 2016, Israeli forces demolished an agricultural room, a wells and pillars to establish a livestock barrack, west of Beit Oula village, west of Hebron. The demolition was carried out under that no permit was obtained from the competent authorities in the Israeli Civil Administration and the abovementioned utilities are located in area (C). On 22 January 2016, Israeli forces informed the residents of Karma village, east of Doura, southwest of Hebron, of levelling a road under the pretext that it was located in area (C).

    United Nations A/ES-10/701–S/2015/861 General Assembly Distr.: General 11 November 2015 Security Council Original: English General Assembly Security Council Tenth emergency special session Seventieth year Agenda item 5 Illegal Israeli actions in Occupied East Jerusalem and the rest of the Occupied Palestinian Territory Identical letters dated 11 November 2015 from the Permanent Observer of the State of Palestine to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General, the President of the General Assembly and the President of the Security Council The situation in the Occupied State of Palestine, including East Jerusalem, remains extremely volatile as Israel, the occupying Power, persists with its violations of international law, including humanitarian and human rights law, causing the continued deterioration of the situation in all aspects, including the continued suffering of the Palestinian people under its occupation, and further deepening despair and inflaming already heightened tensions. In word and deed, the occupying Power has rejected de-escalating tensions and has instead continued with its oppressive measures and excessive use of force against the Palestinian civilian population. This is evidenced by the fact that, since the beginning of October¸ the Palestinian Ministry of Health has documented that Israeli occupying forces have killed 82 Palestinians, among them 18 children and 4 women; 63 were killed in the West Bank and 18 in the Gaza Strip and 1 Palestinian was also killed in Beersheba. Moreover, more than 3,500 Palestinians have been shot and wounded with live and rubber-coated steel bullets and more than 5,000 persons have been treated for excessive tear-gas inhalation, while 278 were injured in other ways, including assaults by the occupying forces and burns from tear-gas canisters.

Schools and universities were frequently the target of military attacks and raids, and on some occasions were completely closed through military order. To get to and from school, students and edu- cators often crossed multiple military checkpoints, where they experienced long delays, harassment, hu- miliation and physical abuse at the hands of Israeli soldiers. Students and teachers faced arbitrary and prolonged arrest without charge or trial, often because of their political campus organizing or public criticism of Israel and the military occupation.

  • Checkpoint 300 by Ahmad Al-Bazz, Anne Paq, Haidi Motola (Palestine, 2017, 4’)
    Checkpoint 300 by Ahmad Al-Bazz, Anne Paq, Haidi Motola (Palestine, 2017, 4’) Thousands of Palestinian workers queue in Bethlehem every day before dawn to pass through the Israeli Checkpoint 300. Checkpoint 300 is the main crossing point for Palestinians from all over the southern West Bank who work in Jerusalem and other cities beyond the Green Line. Checkpoint 300 is a short film created by Activestills, a collective of Israeli, Palestinian and international photographers, united in the belief that photography is a tool for political and social change. It is part of a larger project documenting several “workers’ checkpoints” throughout the West Bank to show how checkpoints are not an issue of border control between two sovereign countries, but rather means of controlling the Palestinian population. Ahmad Al-Bazz (Palestine, 1993) is an award-winning journalist, photographer and documentary filmmaker based in Nablus (West Bank). In 2014, he graduated from An-Najah National University (Nablus) with a BA degree in Media and Mass Communication. In 2018, he obtained an MA degree in Television Studies from the University of East Anglia (UK). He has been a member of the Activestills since 2012. Between 2015 and 2017, Ahmad worked as a cameraman and video editor for Palemedia, the largest Palestinian news agency. He is currently directing his first full-length documentary. Anne Paq (France, 1976) is a award-winning freelance photographer and videographer who had lived and worked in Palestine for over a decade. She has been a member of Activestills since 2006. Her work has been exhibited worldwide and published in various media outlets such as the NY Times Lens, Paris Match, le Nouvel Observateur, Stern, the Guardian, Haaretz.

  • Islamic Antisemitism: Jews in the Qur’An, Reflections of European Antisemitism, Political Anti-Zionism: Common Codes and Differences
    Raimund Fastenbauer Islamic Antisemitism: Jews in the Qur’an, Reflections of European Antisemitism, Political Anti-Zionism: Common Codes and Differences Introduction Antisemitism in today’spolitical and academic discourse very often is limited to discussions regardingthe racialextreme right-wing antisemitism arising out of Christian anti-Judaism. This is onlypart of the story.The Jewishcommunities in Europe and the State of Israel are confronted with an antisemitismfrom three directions,however connected with each other: the extreme right,the ex- treme left,and political Islam.This essayfocuses on Islamic antisemitism. There is adiscourse about the extent to which there is aconnection between Islam as religion, political Islam,and anti-Jewish or antisemitic orientation. A closer look at the Qur’an is necessary to understand the complexity,even more so giventhat such old motifs are ignored and Islamic antisemitism is downplayed. Other motifs, however,seem to be aresultofthe export of European antise- mitism into the Middle East in colonial timesand later,especiallyinthe 1930s, as nationalist anti-British and anti-French sentiment developed. This development is called “Islamised Antisemitism.”¹ Agood example and modern denier of are- ligious original Islamic antisemitism is SadikJ.al-Azm. He onlyconsiders Islam- ic antisemitism as “Islamised Antisemitism,” as areflection of Christian antisem- itism and as aperception of the ideologyofNational Socialism in the 1930s. The answer is not an either or but a both and with respect to the sourceofantisemitic motifs and codes.

The remaining six Palestinians sustained wounds during confrontations with Israeli forces at the weekly anti‐Barrier demonstrations in Ni’lin (Ramallah) and Al Ma’sara (Bethlehem), after being shot with rubber‐coated metal bullets and physically assaulted. Another anti‐ Barrier demonstration took place this week near the Qalandiya Barrier checkpoint, at the main entrance to East Jerusalem from the north, on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. During the protest, Palestinians pulled down a section of the Barrier, after which clashes erupted between the protesters and Israeli forces, who used tear gas to disperse them; no injures were reported.
