"Wall Street Journal": An American plan to establish a "Green Zone" free of Hamas in Gaza

A newspaper revealed a plan being pushed by the United States to establish "housing complexes" for Palestinians within areas controlled by the occupation in the Gaza Strip, in an effort to remove civilians from areas under the control of Hamas.

The newspaper indicated, citing American, Israeli, and Arab officials, that preparations are being made through the "Civil-Military Coordination Center" in the southern part of the occupying state, led by the American army.

The report explained that engineering teams have begun planning and debris removal work, in a step considered an "implicit acknowledgment" that disarming Hamas and removing it from power according to Trump's plan will not be achieved soon.

The occupation admits to the kidnapping of Palestinian doctor Marwan Al-Hams and his daughter to pressure him.

The Israeli occupation admitted to the abduction of the director of Abu Yusuf al-Najjar Hospital and the person in charge of managing the field hospitals file, and the spokesperson for the ministry, Dr. Marwan al-Hams, in a special intelligence operation, about five months ago.

The Israeli occupation army stated that "Marwan al-Hams, the Hamas-affiliated terrorist involved in identifying Lieutenant Hadar Goldin, was arrested, and al-Hams is also suspected of knowing the location of Lieutenant Goldin's burial in the 'White Crown' tunnel in Rafah."

It added, "This operation, which was carried out in July 2025, was part of dozens of covert operations conducted over the past six months to recover Lieutenant Hadar Goldin and return him for burial in Israel."

It is noted that al-Hams is a Palestinian doctor, born and raised in a refugee camp in the city of Rafah in the southernmost part of the Gaza Strip. He joined the Ministry of Health, worked in its hospitals, managed the Martyr Abu Yusuf al-Najjar Hospital, and held the position of director of field hospitals and spokesperson for the Ministry of Health.

Al-Hams was abducted by an Israeli special force while he was on his way to a work mission at the International Committee of the Red Cross hospital in the Mawasi area, southwest of Khan Younis, on the afternoon of Monday, July 21, 2025.

The Israeli channel "i24" reported that the General Security Service "Shabak" conducted "intensive interrogations with al-Hams regarding potential locations in the tunnel network, and also detained his daughter in an attempt to pressure him, but he did not provide the required information."

Ultimately, Goldin was located after Hamas allowed access to the tunnel during a ceasefire.

The Israeli occupation authorities continue to detain the Palestinian nurse Tasneem al-Hams (22 years old), despite an official decision for her release.

Abadah al-Hams, the son of Dr. Marwan al-Hams and brother of the detainee Tasneem, stated that his sister is still stuck at the "Kerem Shalom" crossing without the implementation of her release order, according to local sources.

Al-Hams explained that lawyer Muhammad Jbarin informed the family of a clear decision for Tasneem's release, but the occupation authorities refrained from implementing it under the pretext of what they described as "closing the release door" at the crossing.

Al-Hams completed his primary and intermediate education in schools run by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), and his secondary education in a public school in Rafah.

After successfully passing the general secondary exams, he moved to Russia to study, obtaining a doctorate in medicine from Saratov University in 1998.

He obtained a diploma in anesthesia and intensive care from the Islamic University in Gaza in 2003.

Al-Hams's name emerged during the genocide against the Gaza Strip, and he was prominently featured in the media speaking about Israeli crimes, and the use of siege and starvation as weapons to exterminate the population of Gaza by preventing humanitarian and medical supplies to the area. The Ministry of Health referred to him as "the voice of the sick and the starving."

The occupation raids areas in the West Bank and settlers burn an agricultural facility.

The Israeli occupation authorities carried out a wide campaign of raids and arrests in several areas of the occupied West Bank during the night and early Saturday morning, coinciding with attacks by settlers on a number of Palestinian citizens' properties.

In Nablus, in the northern West Bank, Israeli occupation forces stormed the city center and carried out raids and arrests, while heavy gunfire was heard around the Old Town, according to local sources.

The occupation forces also stormed the Ras Al-Ain area and the town of Hawara south of the city, conducting raids and searches of several homes.

Sources reported the arrest of Palestinian Legislative Council member Jamal Al-Tirawi and his sons after raiding their home during the incursion on Al-Quds Street east of Nablus.

The occupation army also arrested another Palestinian after storming his home in the Al-Taaawon neighborhood of the city.

In Jenin, Palestinian local sources reported that Israeli occupation forces carried out a wide campaign of arrests in the town of Qabatiya south of the city, which included raids on several homes and searches.

The sources mentioned that the forces stormed the eastern and western neighborhoods of the town amid heavy military presence.

In Hebron, in the southern occupied West Bank, the occupation forces launched a campaign of arrests in the town of Beit Ummar north of Hebron, following extensive raids concentrated in the northern and central neighborhoods, accompanied by searches and temporary detention of several residents.

In Ramallah, Israeli occupation forces stormed the town of Ni'lin west of the city and conducted searches in several homes.

Settlers also set fire to an agricultural facility and a residence in the village of Abu Falah northeast of the city after infiltrating from a nearby settlement outpost and throwing Molotov cocktails, which led to the entire farm catching fire.

In occupied Jerusalem, occupation forces carried out raids and searches in the Wadi Hilweh neighborhood of Silwan, south of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.

Palestinian sources clarified that the occupation forces closed the main street to vehicle movement, obstructing the passage of residents, while the search campaign inside homes continued for several hours.

These developments come amid a rise in daily attacks carried out by settlers under the protection of the Israeli army, and the continued incursions into Palestinian cities and towns in the occupied West Bank, including occupied Jerusalem.

During the first half of this month, November 2025, the Palestinian Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission reported that Israeli occupation forces and settlers carried out more than 1,076 attacks on Palestinians, including 31 demolitions, in addition to 18 land and facility razings.

The report also included the martyrdom of 10 Palestinians, in addition to the arrest of 130 during the reporting period from the first to the middle of this month, November 2025.

Since October 7, 2023, the attacks in the West Bank have resulted in the martyrdom of 1,078 Palestinians and the injury of about 11,000 others, in addition to the arrest of more than 20,000 citizens, including 1,600 children, according to Palestinian medical sources.

American newspaper: Washington is working to establish alternative communities in Gaza away from Hamas.

A newspaper reported that the United States is working on establishing residential communities for Palestinians within areas controlled by the occupation in the Gaza Strip, as part of a plan aimed at resettling the population away from Hamas-controlled areas.

Washington has brought teams of engineers to those areas and has already begun clearing rubble and removing debris, in an attempt to attract civilian populations from areas under Hamas control.

These teams oversee the removal of rubble and unexploded ordnance from a civil-military coordination center established by the U.S. military in the southern occupation.

The newspaper clarified that these moves represent an implicit acknowledgment that implementing U.S. President Donald Trump's 20-point plan, which includes disarming Hamas and excluding it from power, is unlikely in the near term.

The newspaper quoted American and Arab officials stating that Washington is working on a plan to establish "alternative safe communities" in areas within the Gaza Strip known to Americans as the "Green Zone."

These communities are expected to include housing, hospitals, and schools designated for displaced persons, as a transitional phase.

American officials hope that these communities will serve as a model for reconstruction and successfully attract the population away from Hamas-controlled centers.

The newspaper notes that the popularity of the movement has increased since the ceasefire due to its resistance to Israeli aggression and its ability to confront.

The first residential gathering of this kind is set to be established in the city of Rafah, which has witnessed extensive destruction and has been under occupation since last May.

The newspaper confirmed that Washington is not considering cooperating with any militia hostile to Hamas within the Gaza Strip, in an effort to avoid creating a new internal conflict.

In this context, the United States and its allies are working on establishing an international security force to secure the Gaza Strip as part of Trump's plan.

The report indicates that civil administration and reconstruction will temporarily fall under the supervision of the "Peace Council" established by Trump, until final control is handed over to a Palestinian government later on.

In contrast to Netanyahu, Saar claims that Israel does not intend to attack Iran.

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar claimed on Friday that Tel Aviv does not intend to launch a new attack on Iran at this stage, a position that seemed contradictory to statements made by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a few days earlier.

In an interview with the "Jerusalem Post," Sa'ar claimed that "Tehran is working to restore its nuclear capabilities," but he considered that its current level of enriched uranium production is "lower than it was before, and less than it had planned."

He added: "The Iranian threat will not disappear, but the assessment at this stage is not to head towards a new military strike."

Between June 13 and 24, Israel launched a war on Iran with American support, during which Tehran responded by launching missiles and drones, before the United States announced a ceasefire.

Last Tuesday, Netanyahu threatened during an event in West Jerusalem to continue striking Iran, saying: "We have struck the Iranian terrorism axis, and our hand is still extended for more," as he put it.

In this context, Sa'ar considered that the wars waged by his country over the past year imposed on it a "parallel battle in the international arena," which included efforts to prevent European sanctions on Tel Aviv and to deal with the increasing wave of recognitions of a Palestinian state.

He explained that the Israeli Foreign Ministry focused on "strengthening relations with countries in Central and Eastern Europe, such as Germany, the Balkans, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and the Baltic states."

Sa'ar considered that these countries represent a "counterweight" to the positions of other European countries "more preoccupied with the Palestinian issue."

He pointed to the "closure of the Israeli embassy in Ireland," in contrast to the opening of new missions in Estonia, Moldova, and Zambia.

Amid the ongoing Israeli genocide against Gaza, which continued for two years starting from October 8, 2023, countries recognized the State of Palestine during United Nations meetings in September, raising the number of countries recognizing it to 160 out of 193 member states in the international organization, according to the Palestinian Foreign Ministry.

In this regard, Sa'ar reiterated his government's rejection of any path leading to the establishment of a Palestinian state, criticizing the American decision regarding the formation of an international force in Gaza, which was approved by the Security Council on November 18, which included "a path towards a Palestinian state."

He claimed that the recognition by several countries of the State of Palestine over the past year is "not a success" from his perspective, but he asserted that Tel Aviv succeeded in convincing other countries, such as Germany and some European and Asian countries, not to take a similar step.

He considered that "maintaining calm (in Gaza) at this time serves Israel's interest, and it should be shown that Tel Aviv has given the American plan for disarming Hamas a diplomatic opportunity before considering resuming military operations."

A ceasefire agreement between Tel Aviv and Hamas was based on a plan presented by Trump consisting of 20 points regarding the genocide committed by Israel in the Gaza Strip with American support over two years since October 8, 2023, which resulted in more than 69,000 Palestinian deaths and over 170,000 injuries, most of whom are children and women, with reconstruction costs estimated by the United Nations at around $70 billion.

"Settler terrorism in the West Bank and East Jerusalem is among the greatest obstacles to peace in the Middle East. I condemn these attacks in the strongest possible terms. 

The drastic increase in attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians in recent weeks is particularly disturbing. In many places, Palestinians can no longer harvest their ripe olives – this threatens not only their daily lives and safety, but also the economic livelihoods of their families. The victims are often defenseless against these attacks. 

The Israeli government has a duty to take decisive action against these violent crimes – on the ground and in court – and to credibly uphold the principles of the rule of law."

European official: The collapse of the Palestinian Authority leads to chaos.

A European Union official confirmed that the collapse of the Palestinian Authority leads to chaos, and that support from the European Union comes to prevent its collapse. This was stated during his meeting with a Palestinian media delegation in the Belgian capital, Brussels.

He said that the European Union has supported the Palestinian Authority since its establishment on both political and financial levels, and that yesterday's donors' meeting discussed, in addition to financial support, political support, carrying a clear message prioritizing the two-state solution, and that all attendees at the meeting want a Palestinian state, with a Palestinian government that provides services to citizens in a credible and effective manner.

He added that the European Union is pressuring the Israeli government to release the clearance funds and to implement the agreements between Israeli and Palestinian banks, and is also working towards conducting local elections.

He emphasized the importance of supporting the Palestinian private sector, which has shown effective and tangible resistance under the current circumstances, noting that part of the funds being discussed has been allocated to this sector, praising the role of the new generations in Palestine who have initiatives and aspirations for the future.

He indicated that the reconstruction of Gaza requires a significant commitment from the international community, and according to initial estimates, it needs between 60 to 70 billion dollars from the responsible parties. The principles governing the reconstruction process were discussed, emphasizing that it should be managed by Palestinians and in accordance with international law and respect for the wishes of the Palestinian people.

The Israeli army kills a young man and arrests two in the West Bank.

The Israeli army killed a Palestinian youth on Friday evening and detained his body, while its forces arrested two other youths in the northern occupied West Bank.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health stated in a statement that the Palestinian Civil Affairs Authority informed it "of the martyrdom of the young man Younes Walid Mohammed Ishtiyeh (24 years old) by the occupation's bullets in the town of 'Tal' west of Nablus city (north), and the detention of his body."

Nauman Ramadan, head of the village council of 'Tal', said that "Israeli forces stormed the village, raided the home of the young man Younes Walid Ishtiyeh, and opened fire on him, which led to his immediate death, then they detained his body."

Ramadan explained that "the army summoned the father of the young man Younes, who confirmed that his son had passed away, before the army carried the body in a military vehicle and withdrew from the area."

He revealed that the young Ishtiyeh was a member of the Palestinian police.

For its part, the Palestinian Red Crescent stated in a statement that Israeli forces prevented its crews from reaching the young man at the moment he was injured inside the house.

In the Far'a camp south of Tubas (north), Israeli forces arrested a young man after surrounding his house in the vicinity of the camp.

Kamal Bani Odeh, director of the Prisoners Club in Tubas, mentioned that Israeli forces arrested the young man Mahdi Ibrahim Mutlaq (25 years old) from his home in the vicinity of the Far'a camp.

Israeli forces also arrested a young man from Khirbat 'Hamsa al-Fawqa' in the northern Jordan Valley (northeast).

In this regard, Mutaz Bisharat, the official in charge of the Jordan Valley file in Tubas, stated that the Israeli army stormed Khirbat Hamsa al-Fawqa and arrested the young man Musab Abdul Ghani Al-Awaida (19 years old), and took him to one of its camps.

The assaults by the army and settlers in the West Bank over the past two years have led to the deaths of at least 1,079 Palestinians, and the injury of about 11,000 others, in addition to the arrest of more than 20,500 since the start of the Israeli genocide war in Gaza that lasted for two years.

The emigration of Israeli elites.. The brain drain raises concerns for the occupation.

In a globalized world where highly skilled talents dominate the wheels of economy and development, the issue of Israeli elite migration emerges as one of the most prominent strategic challenges for the occupying state.

While countries like Norway and Britain seek to attract experienced doctors and engineers from abroad, Israeli society is witnessing a mass exodus of its talented youth, raising concerns among economists and demographic specialists.

Eyal pointed out that U.S. President Donald Trump recently emphasized the need to grant work visas to high-skilled individuals through the H1B program, stating during an interview with host Laura Ingraham: "We need to attract talent here."

He added: "You can't take people from the unemployment office and say to them: I will put you in a factory and you will make rockets."

This perspective highlights the difference between countries that reject high economic capacity migration and those that seek to attract distinguished talents, which explains the concerns among Central and Southern European countries facing declining natural fertility and the emigration of their talented youth.

According to Yedioth Ahronoth, official data released by the Knesset Research and Information Center recorded a significant increase in the number of long-term emigrants during the period 2022-2023, with approximately 59,400 Israelis leaving in 2022, an increase of 44% from the previous year.

The number rose to 82,800 emigrants in 2023, an increase of 39%, with a peak recorded in October 2023.

The trend continued into 2024, while the number of returnees after long stays abroad decreased from 29,600 in 2022 to 24,200 in 2023.

Concerns did not stop there, as three economists from Tel Aviv University – Professor Itai Atar, Professor Nitai Bergman, and Daron Zamir – focused on dissecting and correcting the official data, excluding about 30,000 migrants from Ukraine who returned within a short period.

They considered that the actual number of Israelis leaving in 2023 is about 50,000 people only.

The experts clarified that migration primarily targets doctors, engineers, and high-skilled individuals, with three-quarters of these emigrants being under the age of forty.

Between January 2023 and September 2024, 875 doctors left the country, along with more than 19,000 university students, including about 6,600 graduates in science and technology, and over 3,000 engineers.

Professor Dan Ben David from Tel Aviv University warned that the production and capabilities of Israeli society depend on an extremely small percentage of the elite, and that the erosion of this sector could lead to structural crises that are difficult to address.

Professor Atar also pointed out that rising living costs, unequal opportunities, and the government's focus on the interests of specific groups are driving more highly educated youth to leave the country.

He warned that the upcoming elections could determine the future of the state regarding its ability to retain its elite.

Eyal notes that current policies in Israel do not provide facilities for non-Jewish migrants or researchers and doctors and engineers not connected by family ties, which increases the state's loss of talents.

He pointed out that the continuation of this trend could make Israel a country that loses its ability to defend its national interests without its elite, amid fierce global competition for talents and competencies.

The report concludes that what is happening in Israel is not merely a human hemorrhage, but represents a long-term strategic threat that requires urgent policies and practical incentives to retain the elite and encourage them to stay or return to the country.

The American air bridge to Israel: A flood of weapons fueling the fires of destruction in Gaza for decades to come.

Washington – "Al-Quds" dot com - Said Arikat

The Israeli Ministry of Defense announced on Wednesday that it has received the 1000th aircraft as part of an airlift operation importing weapons and military equipment from the United States since the attack on October 7, 2023. According to the ministry's statement, more than 120,000 tons of supplies – including munitions, weapon systems, armored vehicles, medical equipment, and communication systems – have been transported via this airlift, in addition to about 150 naval vessels carrying additional shipments. The Ministry of Defense describes this operation as a "logistical operation across continents on an unprecedented scale" since the establishment of Israel.

The statement also indicates the participation of missions from the United States and Germany in these supplies, hinting that some of the weapons may be German. Germany, the second-largest arms supplier to Israel after the United States, recently partially lifted its suspension on arms exports to Israel. This development places Europe at the heart of the Israeli arms network, despite increasing international criticism of those relations in light of the humanitarian crises in Gaza.

Multi-front use of American equipment

The shipments of American weapons are not limited to the war in Gaza; according to the Israeli Ministry of Defense, these weapons are also used in multiple conflicts: against Hezbollah in Lebanon, during operations in the West Bank, and even in airstrikes on Syria and Yemen. This suggests that the United States is not providing support for just one operation, but for a broader regional project, granting Israel operational capability on multiple fronts simultaneously.

Strengthening its defenses through American aid

On another front, Israel announced the signing of a "multi-billion" contract with the local company Rafael to supply additional batches of the Iron Dome system. This contract is partially funded by an American aid package of $8.7 billion, approved by Congress in April 2024. From this package, $5.2 billion has been allocated to enhance Israeli defense systems, including the "Iron Dome," "David's Sling," and a high-powered defensive laser system in its final stages. This shows that American support for Israel's security is not merely a circumstantial response, but a long-term investment in its defense infrastructure.

The collapse of Gaza... and the mines that still threaten lives

On the humanitarian front, several reports indicate that Israel has dropped massive amounts of explosives on Gaza. According to concerned organizations, the estimates of munitions launched amount to about 70,000 tons since October 2023.

Among these bombs and explosives, approximately 5 to 10 percent have not detonated, leaving thousands of tons of unexploded ordnance scattered in the rubble of buildings and land.

According to an estimate from the United Nations Mine Action Service (UNMAS), there are about 7,500 tons of mines and unexploded ordnance in Gaza, and cleaning them up could take 14 years.

From a human rights perspective, this poses an immediate and direct threat to residents trying to return to their homes or rebuild what has been destroyed.

Some reports have mentioned that there are about 71,000 tons of unexploded explosives embedded within an estimated 65 to 70 million tons of rubble, scattered throughout the sector, inside homes, on roads, and agricultural lands.

Israeli reports even state that some of these unexploded bombs weigh more than one ton, significantly increasing the danger of debris removal and cleanup.

Media outlets have also indicated that fighters from Palestinian factions (such as Hamas) have repurposed some unexploded ordnance to create explosives from within, affecting the dynamics of the conflict.

The direct and long-term costs of American support

Regarding the budget, the "Costs of War Project" at Brown University indicates that the United States has spent about $21.7 billion in military aid to Israel since the October 7 attack, in addition to an additional $9.6 to $12 billion to support military operations in Yemen, Iran, and other theaters in the region.

This level of support is not only material but also supports a broader regional strategy that enables Israel to engage on multiple fronts, while simultaneously placing a political and moral burden on Washington, especially with the increasing international condemnation of civilian destruction in Gaza.

The massive airlift from Washington to Tel Aviv is not merely a temporary tactical support but is part of a long-term American strategy to entrench Israeli superiority in the region. However, the cost of this support is not only military but humanitarian as well: it fuels a machine of destruction in Gaza and leaves behind fields of unexploded ordnance that threaten civilian lives for many years. If the United States continues this approach without accountability or review, it is not only supporting an allied state but contributing to turning Gaza into a long-term humanitarian minefield,

Belgian politician Malik Ben Ashour, who has played active roles in political life at both the federal parliament and local authorities, announced the establishment of a network to coordinate among European lawmakers to defend Palestine.

In his remarks, Ben Ashour presented his vision for his new initiative regarding Palestine, proudly expressing that he is "the son of a Tunisian immigrant, born and raised in the heart of Europe."

Ben Ashour noted that he faced the problem of "injustice" through the Palestinian cause, saying: "When I was a small child, I encountered images of young children killed by Israeli soldiers during the first intifada."

He mentioned that he was a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee during his time in parliament, focusing his work on the Palestinian issue.

He added: "The Palestinian cause is of central importance to all of us; it is a mirror for all democracies, a mirror for all humanity, revealing the issue of double standards."

Ben Ashour indicated that he has created a network of European parliamentarians around Palestine, stating: "I established a network to coordinate actions and gather sympathetic lawmakers for the Palestinian cause."

He emphasized the need for politicians to adopt this support and advocate for the Palestinian people more loudly and tangibly.

He expressed his regret over Europe's ineffectiveness and silence regarding the rights of the Palestinian people, noting that "it is impossible to impose sanctions on Israel."

Ben Ashour said he has thought about finding ways to change this situation in Europe and decided to start with legislators.

He concluded by saying: "We must be active in building peace in the Middle East. There can be no peace without justice."

Hamas: Israel intensifies the demolition of buildings in areas under its control in eastern Gaza.

Hamas stated on Friday that Israel is "intensifying the demolition and destruction of residential buildings" in areas under its control according to the ceasefire agreement in eastern Gaza Strip, in a process of "systematic extermination of what remains of urban life."

This came in a statement from the movement's spokesperson Hazem Qassem, commenting on the extensive demolition operations carried out by the Israeli army since dawn on Friday, in a continuous policy despite the agreement that came into effect on October 10.

Qassem described the policy of demolishing residential buildings as "criminal," emphasizing that it constitutes a "blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement in Gaza."

He called on the mediators guaranteeing the agreement to take "real action to stop these serious violations of the Sharm El-Sheikh agreement (regarding Gaza)."

The agreement was signed on October 13 and includes, among other provisions, a ceasefire and prisoner exchange, based on the plan of U.S. President Donald Trump.

The genocide war initiated by Israel on October 8, 2023, which lasted for two years, resulted in more than 69,000 Palestinian deaths and over 170,000 injuries.

Israel has violated this agreement dozens of times, through bombing, gunfire, and demolitions, resulting in the deaths and injuries of hundreds of Palestinians and the destruction of vast areas of urban space.

Palestinian welcome for the British government's warning to a fundraising organization for the occupation army.

The International Center for Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) welcomed the decision of the British Charity Commission to issue an official warning to the "Mizrahi UK" organization, following the complaint submitted by the center and its request to open an investigation into the organization's activities.

The complaint was based on two main points: the organization's involvement in fundraising for the Israeli occupation army, and its hosting of figures known for hate speech, in clear violation of the requirements of the British Commission.

After seven months of submitting the complaint, the Commission concluded its investigation and issued an official warning under Section 75A of the Charities Act 2011, and placed the organization on the red list via the Commission's website, requiring it to implement specific corrective actions before closing the case.

The investigation will remain open until the organization's trustees comply with all the required conditions.

The center confirmed that its investigation showed that "Mizrahi UK" repeatedly called for donations to Israeli soldiers involved in military operations, including providing combat equipment.

On July 10, 2024, the organization published a call for fundraising for soldiers serving in Gaza and the occupied Palestinian territories on its official Facebook page.

According to Section 3 of the Charities Act 2011, providing military assistance or supplies to a foreign armed force is not considered a charitable purpose, and no charity is allowed to engage in it.

The center emphasized that these activities contradict the organization's stated goals of "promoting education and leadership among Jewish youth."

ICJP also documented the organization's hosting of several figures known for hate speech, which constitutes another violation of charity obligations.

Among these figures is Yehuda Glick, a former Knesset member from the Likud party, who described the Israeli military operations in Gaza as a "divine battle requiring complete victory."

He added: "We are fighting demons, cruel animals that are not human, and cannot be justified by human rights or occupation."

Israeli journalist Sivan Rahav-Meir said in the "18Forty" podcast in July 2024: "I always knew we were facing the worst enemies and neighbors in the world."

The International Center for Justice viewed the official warning issued by the British Charity Commission as an important step towards enforcing the law and preventing the exploitation of the "charitable" status to fund military activities or promote hate speech.

The center confirmed its continued monitoring of "Mizrahi UK" activities to ensure that these violations do not recur.

The center also revealed that it has filed similar complaints against other charities operating in Britain and is awaiting the Commission's results regarding them.

Ahmed Muhtir, head of the legal department at ICJP, stated that the official warning "is clear evidence that Mizrahi UK has violated its duties as a registered charity, and its case will not be closed until all required corrective actions are completed."

He added: "This development reaffirms the center's steadfast commitment to defending the rights of Palestinians through rigorous oversight and accountability."

The statement concluded by reminding that the International Center for Justice for Palestinians is an independent institution comprising lawyers, politicians, and academics, aiming to protect the rights of Palestinians through available legal tools.

A scientific paper from the Zaytouna Center warns: The rise of the "settler state" undermines any settlement.

The Zaytouna Center for Studies and Consultations issued a research paper titled "The Settler State" in the West Bank: From a Settlement Project to a Parallel Entity, prepared by researcher Thamer Abdul Ghani Sba'na, which discussed the qualitative transformation that Israeli settlements have undergone since 1967.

They are no longer scattered population centers; rather, they have gradually developed into a cohesive entity that possesses economic and security institutions and councils representing political interests, operating almost independently (as it appears) from the authority of the "Israeli state" within the West Bank, while receiving direct support from successive Israeli governments.

The paper indicated that this transformation is no longer just a challenge for Palestinians in their struggle for land and identity, but has become a direct threat to any possibility of achieving a just political settlement.

Warning of an imminent explosion in the West Bank with the escalation of attacks by the occupation and settlers.

Palestinians were injured today, Friday, by the bullets of Israeli occupation forces and in attacks by settlers in several areas of the occupied West Bank, at a time when the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine warned of an imminent explosion and a third intifada.

Most areas of the West Bank are witnessing a notable escalation in attacks by the occupation forces and settlers, which have resulted in a number of martyrs and dozens of injuries in the past few days.

Palestinian sources reported that the occupation forces fired live ammunition at worshippers in Ramallah towards the locals and worshippers coinciding with Friday prayers in the village of al-Mughayir, northeast of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.

Sources stated that the Israeli army raided the village and opened fire at the locals during Friday prayers, resulting in the injury of two individuals, one of whom was shot with live ammunition.

At the same time, a correspondent reported that settlers stormed the village of Abu Falakh at dawn today, set fire to an agricultural facility, and wrote racist slogans on the walls before withdrawing.

Palestinians also suffered from suffocation due to an attack by settlers accompanied by occupation forces on the village of Kisan east of Bethlehem.

In the southern West Bank, local sources reported that several citizens were injured in an attack carried out by settlers in Wadi al-Rahim near Khirbat Susiya in the town of Masafer Yatta south of Hebron.

In other field developments, Palestinian sources said that a young man was injured by the bullets of the occupation forces in the town of Tal south of Nablus in the northern West Bank.

In northern West Bank as well, an Israeli force stormed the city of Nablus and fired bullets in its streets.

A special Israeli force also besieged a house at the entrance of the town of Burqin west of Jenin, and military reinforcements later arrived in the area.

The occupation forces also besieged a house in the vicinity of the al-Far'a camp south of Tubas, according to Palestinian sources.

At dawn today, about 10 settlers infiltrated the Tarouja mountain area located between the villages of al-Lubban al-Sharqiya and Amoria south of Nablus, and set fire to three villas in the area.

Photos obtained showed the moment the settlers infiltrated from the settlements of "Libona" and "Eli" and attempted to attack the guard while he was in the guard room, pouring flammable materials and burning the contents of the villas and furniture inside them and in their yards, before withdrawing towards the southern area of the town.

Settlers had set fire last night to a car warehouse near the town of Hawara south of Nablus.

Settlers also attacked an agricultural nursery in the town of Deir Sharaf west of Nablus, destroying its contents and damaging the crops.

Meanwhile, a crowd of Palestinians today mourned the young man Amro al-Marbou' (18 years old) and the boy Sami Mashayekh (16 years old) who were martyred earlier today by the bullets of the occupation forces in Kafr Aqab north of occupied Jerusalem.

It was reported that the occupation forces stormed Kafr Aqab and deployed their foot patrols in its streets, while their snipers took positions on the rooftops of several buildings, firing at the youths in the town, which led to the martyrdom of the two young men al-Marbou' and Mashayekh, and a third injury.

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine stated today that an explosion is imminent in the West Bank amid the escalation of attacks by the occupation forces and settlers, confirming that the outbreak of a comprehensive third intifada is closer than ever.

The Popular Front added in a statement that the crime of executing al-Marbou' and Mashayekh in Kafr Aqab, along with the response of Palestinian blood, and unleashing settlers to kill and vandalize in the West Bank, "is the spark that will burn what remains of the illusions of calm," and continued that the accumulated Palestinian anger will explode in the face of the occupation.

The statement confirmed that the Palestinian people will not bow to the organized state terrorism practiced by the occupation government, and that the escalation of crimes will not bring calm, but will lead to a comprehensive confrontation that turns the West Bank into a battlefield of attrition for the occupation and settlers.

In parallel with the genocide war on Gaza, Israeli attacks in the occupied West Bank have escalated unprecedentedly, resulting in the martyrdom of no

The cabinet is turning into a battleground.. Netanyahu clashes with his intelligence agencies over the Gaza plan.

The mini-ministerial council for political and security affairs of the occupation ('the Cabinet') witnessed a sharp disagreement among its members on Thursday evening, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu proposed the formation of a ministerial team tasked with implementing the second phase of the ceasefire agreement in Gaza – excluding Minister of Intelligence Eli Cohen from that team.

Cohen rebelled and voted against the decision. According to information reported by Channel 12, Cohen's exclusion ignited his intense anger, as he interrupted Netanyahu during the session demanding that he be included in the team.

The disagreement did not stop there; Minister Cohen threatened to vote against the decision, which he indeed did at the end of the discussion, expressing his objection to the reduction of the 'Cabinet's' powers in favor of a 'narrow group.'

The Guardian: The world wants to overcome the Gaza crisis, which is submerged in floods and rubble.

The British newspaper "The Guardian" confirmed in its editorial on Thursday that the announcement of a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip led to an initial sense of relief among its residents. However, officials there confirmed that Israeli airstrikes killed 33 people, including 12 children, last Wednesday; while "Israel" claimed that its forces came under gunfire.

The newspaper stated that five more Palestinians were martyred on Thursday, in addition to hundreds since the ceasefire was announced, explaining that "even if the bombardment stops, the destruction of Palestinian lives will continue as Israel continues to choke off aid, and the repercussions of two years of war."

The World Health Organization warned last month that the health disaster will last for generations. It added, "Food is still scarce. While displaced families tremble in temporary shelters flooded with water, many face a third winter of homelessness, relief organizations say they cannot deliver their supplies of tents and blankets, and Israel, which denies blocking aid, has classified tent poles as "dual-use" materials that can be used for military purposes.

Meanwhile, the organization "Save the Children" reported that children are sleeping on bare ground in clothes soaked in sewage. The newspaper revealed last week American plans to long-term divide Gaza into a "Green Zone" under Israeli and international control for redevelopment, and a "Red Zone" left in ruins; an American official described the reunification of the sector as "ambitious."

It noted that "this vision - with international forces primarily supporting the Israeli occupation, and attracting Palestinians to those areas to escape misery and chaos elsewhere - mimics the disastrous American policies in Iraq and Afghanistan.

It confirmed, "This is the dark foundation of the United Nations Security Council's decision this week, which endorsed Donald Trump's peace proposals. The "Peace Council" appears as a colonial authority overseen by Mr. Trump, possibly cemented by Tony Blair.

It will operate under Palestinian technocrats, who enjoy local credibility and acceptance by the United States and Israel - a notable achievement. All of this is possible thanks to an international stability force that the United States hopes to deploy by January.

This would be exaggerated even if countries genuinely showed willingness to send troops. It said, "The decision improved the draft text, and received support from the Arab world - and an angry rejection from the Israeli right - by including references to a Palestinian state and Israeli withdrawal.

However, these references are framed in vague terms, as an unguaranteed reward for sufficient good behavior, rather than being an acknowledgment of the inalienable Palestinian rights.

If things go according to plan, "conditions may finally be set for a reliable path towards Palestinian self-determination and statehood." The Israeli withdrawal will be based on criteria and timelines agreed upon by the army itself, as well as by the United States and other parties.

Countries did not support what this text means, but what it might mean or become. It added, "Some believe this is the best that can be salvaged from the current circumstances, under Mr. Trump's presidency; while others hope that this unpromising start will allow for the formulation of something better.

But it is hard not to conclude that for some governments, it is more about saving face and whitewashing reputations than being in the interest of the Palestinians. Germany has already announced that it will resume arms exports to Israel.

For the Palestinians, "what seemed like an eternal war may turn into eternal misery," as political scientist Nathan Brown warned. Countries that were complicit in the genocide have a greater duty to demand better.

UNICEF: The conflict in Gaza claims the lives of two children daily since the ceasefire agreement.

The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) announced on Friday a concerning statistic regarding the number of child victims in the Gaza Strip, despite the ceasefire agreement being in effect for a month.

The organization revealed that at least 67 children have been martyred in "conflict-related incidents" within the strip over the past month.

UNICEF clarified that this figure means "two children are martyred daily" on average, indicating the fragility of the security situation and the ongoing danger facing civilians, especially children, despite the declared calm.

The eastern areas of Khan Younis city, in southern Gaza, have witnessed the most intense military escalation in days since the morning hours of Friday, characterized by heavy shelling and demolition of buildings, alongside ground movements of occupation forces.

Field sources reported that the occupation's warplanes launched a series of violent airstrikes, accompanied by heavy and random artillery shelling targeting residential neighborhoods east of the city.

The sources explained that this fire cover "facilitated the advance of tanks and military vehicles," which were positioned within what is known as the "yellow line," the buffer zones or incursion areas defined by the occupation army.

In a notable development, the occupation army began carrying out "demolition operations of residential buildings" within this line, indicating an attempt to expand the buffer zones or conduct new offensive maneuvers.

In a related context, medical sources at the "Nasser Medical Complex" confirmed the martyrdom of a Palestinian displaced person due to injuries sustained from the occupation army's fire.

The sources clarified that the martyr was injured in an area located "outside the yellow line" south of Khan Younis city, indicating an expansion of the targeting circle to include areas that are supposed to be relatively distant from direct incursion.

The seriousness of the Security Council's decision: Trump's second plan is on the way.

The UN Security Council's decision regarding the Gaza Strip opens the door to the second phase of the "Trump Peace Plan," fraught with significant risks for the Palestinian cause, prompting factions to warn of its consequences, while many questions remain about its implementation and chances of success.

In the early hours of last Tuesday, the UN Security Council adopted U.S. President Donald Trump's plan concerning the Gaza Strip, by approving the American project supporting the "Trump Peace Plan," with the approval of 13 Security Council members, while Russia and China abstained from voting.

Ultimately, the adoption of the resolution was quick and easy, receiving the approval of the majority of members contrary to expectations, as many had warned of challenges that could delay the resolution, especially with a Russian proposal on the table. However, two main reasons stood behind this outcome: the significant pressure from the U.S. administration to adopt the resolution, and the prior approval of the eight Arab and Islamic countries supporting Trump's plan.

Global Newspapers: Developments in Gaza and Lebanon Reveal the Fragility of the Ceasefire and Keep the War Ongoing

International newspapers have dedicated significant space to discussing developments in the occupied Palestinian territories, amid the ongoing Israeli airstrikes despite the ceasefire agreement, the worsening humanitarian crises, and the expanding devastation in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

The American newspaper "Washington Post" reported that the death toll from Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip rose to dozens of martyrs last Wednesday, despite the ceasefire being in effect. According to the newspaper, the number of martyrs since the ceasefire began has exceeded 300 following a series of Israeli airstrikes, which were the third most intense in six weeks, targeting areas crowded with civilians, including children and women.

The American newspaper "Wall Street Journal" viewed the Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon as confirming the fragility of the ceasefire agreements that were supposed to have halted two years of fighting, which practically means the continuation of the war.

The newspaper quoted a researcher from Johns Hopkins University stating that Israel is now in a position to benefit from the ceasefire, as it has halted attacks against it while retaining the "freedom to strike whenever it wishes."

In contrast, the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and Hezbollah deny violating any agreements, describing the Israeli accusations as a pretext to continue military operations.

The British newspaper "Guardian" conveyed a grimmer picture in camps along the southern coast of the Gaza Strip, where displaced individuals are facing a harsh winter amid weather fluctuations that exacerbate their suffering.

The newspaper indicates that "surviving the bombardment does not mean the end of suffering," as shelter remains the most pressing need amid widespread destruction, in addition to food shortages due to Israel not allowing the agreed quantities to enter as per the ceasefire terms.

In the West Bank, the French newspaper Le Monde reported extensive destruction in refugee camps due to ongoing Israeli incursions for the past nine months, which have turned entire areas into unlivable places, with damaged infrastructure and destroyed buildings, making the return of about 30,000 forcibly displaced individuals nearly impossible.

In other files, concerns are rising in Ukraine and European countries over peace plans being discussed by Washington with Moscow away from Kyiv, according to the "New York Times," while the American magazine "Foreign Affairs" points to a decline in American soft power tools due to Washington's recent policies, opening the door for the rise of Chinese influence globally.

Funding and pressures... What lies behind the silence of Bosnia's experts on Gaza

This year marks three decades since the end of the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a conflict in which around 100,000 people were killed. The war peaked in the Srebrenica massacre in July 1995, where Bosnian Serb forces, led by General Ratko Mladić, known as the "Butcher of Bosnia," committed a massacre against more than 8,000 men and boys within a "safe area," according to the United Nations classification.

In the following decades, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia heard hundreds of testimonies and issued convictions against dozens of Bosnian Serb political and military leaders, including those convicted of genocide. Meanwhile, Bosnia and Herzegovina, along with foreign donors, invested significant funds in studying genocide, recovering victims, and commemorating their memories.

Many Bosnian survivors of the 1992-1995 war saw striking similarities between their experiences and the suffering of Palestinians. Many took to the streets and spoke out publicly against the genocidal war in Palestine. However, a significant number of Bosnian intellectuals, particularly those specializing in war crimes and genocide, chose silence. This silence not only harms efforts to achieve justice for Gaza but also undermines the field of genocide studies.

Before we explore the reasons behind Gaza becoming a taboo subject for some Bosnian researchers, it should be noted that not everyone is silent. There is a small group of Bosnian academics, who are also activists for Palestine and human rights, who have chosen to speak out.

Among them are professors and university researchers—such as Lejla Krešević, Sanela Čekić Bašić, Gorana Milinarević, Jasna Vitašković, and Sanela Kapitanović—who emphasized that there is a moral responsibility that demands not remaining silent. They have set an example by participating in protests and making public statements.

Belma Buljubasic, a professor at the Faculty of Political Science at the University of Sarajevo, criticized European political leaders and others who express sympathy for Srebrenica while simultaneously justifying Israel's actions in Gaza as "self-defense." She argued that this duality reveals a troubling pragmatism that undermines both solidarity and accountability.

In a recent interview, Edina Pečirević, a genocide studies specialist at the University of Sarajevo—Faculty of Criminal Justice and Security, stated that the ongoing genocide in Gaza clearly reflects the same dynamics that occurred in Srebrenica: from dehumanizing people to ideological mobilization, and then international complicity.

Ahmad Alibabić, director of the Center for Advanced Studies and a professor at the Faculty of Islamic Studies at the University of Sarajevo, has been outspoken in his positions. Last year, he participated in organizing a seminar titled: From the Balkans to Gaza: A Critical Analysis of Genocide, which discussed the dynamics of contemporary mass violence by comparing the Srebrenica massacre, the siege of Sarajevo, and the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Nedžara Ahmadashvili, a journalist and media researcher based in Sarajevo, did not hesitate to draw comparisons between Gaza and the experiences of Bosnian survivors from besieged Sarajevo and Srebrenica.

For several months, members of the "Women's Anti-Militarism Collective in Sarajevo" organized protests in the city center, where they recited the names of children killed in Gaza, linking the war crimes in Palestine to the atrocities experienced in Sarajevo.

These individuals responded—each in their own way—to the call of the late Palestinian thinker Edward Said, who always urged intellectuals to "speak truth to power," connecting local memory to global justice and resisting selective truth narratives.

Silence, as Said pointed out, is not a neutral position; it is a political choice that perpetuates harm.

However, Said's call did not move everyone. Ironically, many Bosnian researchers in the field of genocide remained conspicuously silent, even as their colleagues from genocide researchers abroad—including Israelis: Omer Bartov, Amos Goldberg, Shmuel Leiderman—publicly accused Israel of committing genocide in Gaza.

This stance did not change even after the "International Association of Genocide Scholars"—the largest academic body specializing in the field—issued a resolution last August classifying Israel's actions in Gaza as genocide.

Despite this, many researchers at the "Institute for Research of Crimes Against Humanity and International Law" at the University of Sarajevo, law faculty professors, and researchers at the "Institute of Islamic Traditions of Bosniaks" continued to avoid commenting on Israeli war crimes in Gaza.

At the institutional level, the "Institute for Research of Crimes Against Humanity" only issued a statement

World Health Organization: The recovery of children in Gaza will take a long time.

The Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, stated that the recovery of children in the Gaza Strip after the war will take a long time. This was mentioned in a post on the American platform "X" on Thursday, coinciding with World Children's Day, where he addressed the conditions of children in Gaza after two years of the horrors of the Israeli war on the region.

Ghebreyesus noted that "children in Gaza are finally breathing moments of calm after two years of violence." He pointed out that the fragile ceasefire has given children a chance to breathe, connect, play, and even begin to recover.

However, he added, "the trauma, injuries, grief, and shattered childhood will take much longer to heal." Ghebreyesus confirmed that the World Health Organization is supporting on-the-ground rehabilitation and rebuilding of the health system and expanding mental health services for children.

He added, "On World Children's Day, the World Health Organization calls for full respect for the ceasefire, leading to lasting peace." The ceasefire agreement, which came into effect on October 10, ended the Israeli massacre in Gaza, which left more than 69,000 Palestinian dead and over 170,000 injured, most of whom are children and women, while the United Nations estimated the cost of reconstruction at about $70 billion.
