This isn't about a few 'bad apples.' Israel is annexing the West Bank

We were planning to visit the village of Ras ‘Ein al-’Auja in the northern West Bank. But three weeks before the trip, all 700 residents of the village fled due to violence from nearby settlers. When we drove through the ruined remains of the village, we saw groups of Israeli settlers having a picnic.

We were able to visit the village Fasa’il al-Wusta in the Jordan Valley. When we visited, six out of eight families had fled. Two weeks later, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) demolished the home of the family we visited. Now only one of those families is left.

In April, for the first time, Israel convicted #Palestinian citizens for chanting slogans. #LocalCall Reporter Baker Zoubi wrote about how a #Haifa court found two men guilty of “indirect incitement to terrorism” after they joined an anti-war protest, and lawyers warn it sets a dangerous precedent.

Israeli army chief warns reserve forces could 'collapse' amid manpower crisis [😜]
Opposition figures have intensified criticism of Prime Minister #BenjaminNetanyahu's government over its failure to draft ultra-Orthodox #Jews

"In January 2027, due to the reduction of mandatory service to 30 months, the #IDF [#Israel's army] will lose thousands more combat soldiers," Zamir told the committee.

"The reserve army will collapse into itself," he added, according to i24news.

Zamir warned MPs that after nearly three years of war on multiple fronts, the #military is facing a severe manpower shortage that could undermine future operations.

The Silence That Meets the Rape of Palestinians
Male and female Palestinians describe brutal sexual abuse at the hands of Israel’s prison guards, soldiers, settlers and interrogators.

There is no evidence that #Israeli leaders order #rapes. But in recent years they have built a security apparatus where #SexualViolence has become, as a #UN report put it last year, one of #Israel’s “standard operating procedures” and “a major element in the ill treatment of #Palestinians.” A report out last month, from the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, a Geneva-based advocacy group often critical of Israel, concludes that Israel employs “systematic sexual violence” that is “widely practiced as part of an organized state policy.”

Two shipments from #Britain of #military components bound for #Israel have been seized in #Belgium, which has banned aircaft carrying military equipment for Israel from stopping in the country or using its airspace.

Last month, the British news website Declassified, Belgian NGO Vredesactie, Irish news website The Ditch, and the Palestinian Youth Movement alerted authorities in Brussels of a shipment travelling from Britain to Israel through #Liege airport.

The consignments left Britain on 23 March and were seized at Liege airport in Belgium on 24 March.
