Ahmad Abu al-‘Aish 30
The soldiers fired several gas bombs at Palestinian medics and ambulances, and obstructed many medics trying to provide the needed aid to wounded Palestinians, detaining the ambulances for extended periods before finally allowing them through.
The army also demolished the second floor of a home belonging to the family of detainee Mohammad Abu Shahin, who is held by Israel for allegedly “participating in killing two Israeli settlers, and wounding three others”, in July of this year.
Eyewitnesses said the soldiers invaded the camp while firing dozens of rounds of live ammunition, and advanced towards the home of Abu Shahin, before wiring the home and detonating explosives inside it.
The deaths of the two men makes the total number of Palestinians killed since October 1st eighty eight. Ten Israelis have been killed by Palestinians in the same time period. Over 3,000 Palestinians have been wounded, many of them seriously. More than 1300 Palestinians were shot by live ammunition during this time period, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

Youssef Abu Latifa 17
The Israeli occupation patrols further kidnapped an injured minor from the ambulance.
Eye-witnesses identified the child as 17-year-old Youssef Abu Latifa, who was critically wounded in the Qalandiya clashes.
On-the-spot observers further reported cases of aggressive attacks and heavy discharge of tear gas canisters on the ambulance and paramedical staff in the area.
An eyewitness was quoted by a PIC journalist as reporting that the occupation army cordoned off the area at 2 a.m. before they broke into the camp and knocked down the home of activist Muhammad Shaheen, who Israeli officials claim killed an Israeli settler in June near the West Bank province of Ramallah.
Violent clashes flared up shortly afterwards, resulting in the murder of Abu Eish.
Palestinian media reported that the Israeli occupation troops summoned military reinforcement, fanning the flames of the simmering tension that burst out at the refugee camp.
An Israeli chopper kept, meanwhile, hovering over the territory to ensure the safe backtracking of the army troops.
Shortly after, over 1,000 Israeli soldiers re-rolled into the camp, and sealed it off from all corners, sparking violent clashes. Ashraf al-Shou’ani was shot and killed right on the spot.
The attack culminated in the demolition, without prior notification, of Shaheen’s family home
Recent months have seen a dramatic surge in Israeli demolitions of Palestinian civilian homes, triggering the wrath of a plethora of national and international human rights organizations.
The practice of demolishing the family homes of Palestinian anti-occupation activists has often been criticized as a form of collective punishment against the Palestinian people.

Lafi Yusif Awad 22
Israeli forces shot and killed a 22-year-old Palestinian in the Ramallah-area village of Budrus, the third to die on Friday from live Israeli fire during clashes in the occupied West Bank.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health told Ma’an that Lafi Yusif Awad was brought to the Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah in critical condition and pronounced dead shortly after.
Awad was shot by Israeli forces in the left side of his abdomen when intense clashes erupted in the village, and several others were injured, the ministry added.
An Israeli army spokesperson told Ma’an that dozens of Palestinians “violently rioted” in Budrus, “attempting to damage the security fence, hurling rocks and firebombs.”
The forces arrived to “arrest a main instigator,” when a Palestinian attempted to steal a soldier’s weapon, the spokesperson said.
Israeli forces then “fired at the attacker,” and he was evacuated from the scene by the Palestinian Red Crescent, the spokesperson added.
Budrus -- bordered on two sides by the Israeli separation wall -- was one of several towns in the occupied West Bank where Palestinians clashed with Israeli forces on Friday.
Hours before, Israeli forces shot 23-year-old Hassan Jihad al-Baw in the heart during clashes in Halhul, killing him immediately.
Earlier on Friday Issa Shalaldah, 22, succumbed to injuries in Hebron’s al-Ahli hospital one day after being shot by Israeli forces.
Issa had been shot Thursday during clashes that broke out in the village of Sair following the funeral of Abdullah Shalaldah, 28, who was killed by undercover Israeli forces in al-Ahli hospital while visiting his cousin.
Friday’s deaths bring the total number of Palestinians killed since the beginning of last month to 83, nearly 30 of whom were killed by Israeli forces during demonstrations in occupied Palestinian territory.
Twelve Israelis have been killed in attacks by Palestinian individuals in the same time period, including a father and son who were shot dead Friday while driving south of Hebron.

Hassan Jihad al-Baw 23
Israeli forces shot dead a Palestinian man Friday during clashes in the town of Halhul north of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.
Hassan Jihad al-Baw, 23, died after being shot in the heart, doctors at Hebron’s al-Ahli Hospital told Ma’an.
Medical sources confirmed that al-Baw was dead upon arrival at the hospital after a bullet passed through his heart, killing him immediately.
An Israeli army spokesperson confirmed the death but was unable to provide immediate details on the incident.
The 23-year-old was killed shortly after two Israeli settlers were shot dead in their vehicle south of Hebron. A search is currently under way for the suspect, who fled the scene.
Al-Baw was the second Palestinian to die on Friday. Earlier in the day, Issa al-Shalaldah, 22, succumbed to his injuries in the al-Ahli hospital a day after being shot by Israeli forces.
The Ministry of Health told Ma'an that Issa was shot Thursday during clashes that broke out in the village of Sair following the funeral of Abdullah Shalaldah, 28.
Abdullah was killed Thursday morning by undercover Israeli forces while visiting his cousin, 20-year-old Azzam Azmi Shalaldah, who was a patient at the hospital.
Amnesty International condemned Abdullah's death as an extrajudicial execution and said it was the “latest in a pattern of killings by Israeli forces which Amnesty International considers to have been unlawful.”
The increase in violence that initially escalated in October between Israeli military forces, settlers and Palestinians across the occupied Palestinian territory has continued on into this month.
Eighty-two Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces since the start of October, and 12 Israelis have been killed in individual Palestinian attacks during the same time period.
The town of Halhul where al-Baw was killed has been site to heightened tensions over the past two weeks.

Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, mourned its member martyr Abdulla Azzam Shalade, 28, who was executed by Israeli forces after storming al-Ahli Hospital in al-Khalil Wednesday evening.
Hamas’s spokesman Husam Badran condemned, in a statement on Thursday, the Israeli crime of assassinating Shalalde and praised his courage and braveness to defend his cousin, Azzam, from being abducted by Israeli Special Forces.
Badran stressed the necessity to exert national, political and media efforts in order to confront the phenomenon of Israeli Arabist units and warned Palestinians of their danger.
The Hamas senior official Badran asked the Palestinian Authority to stop security coordination with Israel, saying that it helps Israelis implement crimes against Palestinians in the Palestinian Authority’s territories.
Massive crowds at noon Thursday bade farewell to martyr Shalalde in the wake of the anatomy operation which proved that he died by a silencer gun. He was shot in the head, chest, arm and leg and was left bleeding for 40 minutes without being aided.
The participants waved green flags as well as the Palestinian flag and carried the martyr over shoulders while roaming Saeer town and chanted for the protection of Palestinians and avenging martyrs.

Azzam Shalalda 28
Undercover soldiers of the Israeli military invaded, on Thursday at dawn, the al-Ahli hospital in the southern West Bank city of Hebron, where they assassinated one Palestinian and kidnapped his seriously wounded cousin. Eyewitnesses said the soldiers killed Abdullah Azzam Shalalda, 28 years of age, from Sa’ir town near Hebron, immediately after he entered the room of his wounded cousin, Azzam Ezzat Shalalda, who was shot and seriously injured by live rounds fired by a paramilitary Israeli settler in Hebron. |
The eyewitnesses also reported that more than twenty undercover officers infiltrated the hospital before executing Shalalda in the Surgery Ward, approximately at 2:45 at dawn.

The eyewitnesses also reported that more than twenty undercover officers infiltrated the hospital before executing Shalalda in the Surgery Ward, approximately at 2:45 at dawn.
The soldiers first entered Azzam’s hospital room, handcuffed a person who was with him, and as Abdullah came out of the bathroom, they instantly shot him dead, and kidnapped Azzam.
It is worth mentioning that Azzam Shalalda, 20 years of age, was shot nearly a month ago while picking olives with his family in Sa’ir town, after a group of paramilitary Israeli settlers assaulted them, and opened fire on them; he suffered several gunshot injuries in the head and chest.
The Israeli military claimed that Azzam stabbed and moderately wounded an Israeli settler, and managed to escape despite his wounds.
The Israeli army confirmed that its soldiers, Shin Bet security officers and Border Police Officers carried out the deadly invasion into the hospital.
It is worth mentioning that the Israeli army on Thursday morning also surrounded the International Solidarity Movement’s headquarters in Hebron, and started battering the door down, and yelled through windows threatening to arrest everybody if they didn’t leave.
It is worth mentioning that the Israeli army had prevented the solidarity activists from entering the house for a week, and yesterday, Wednesday, was the first day they regained access to the house.
An Al Jazeera news crew was attacked by settlers around the same time on Thursday morning in downtown Hebron. Details about the attack are still forthcoming at the time of this report.
Palestinian killed, cousin kidnapped from hospital by undercover Israelis
A Palestinian youth was killed and his cousin was kidnapped by an Israeli undercover unit at the crack of dawn on Thursday after the latter stormed a hospital in al-Khalil.
A PIC news correspondent quoted local sources as reporting that an Israeli undercover unit rolled into al-Ahli Hospital, in the southern West Bank province of al-Khalil, and shot 28-year-old Abdullah Azzam Shalalda dead.
Abdullah breathed his last after he was shot four times by the occupation soldiers.
The same Israeli unit kidnapped Abdullah’s cousin Azmi Azzat Shalalda, himself shot and injured by an Israeli vandal some few days ago.
According to the same sources, the Israeli undercover assailants misled paramedics at the hospital that an expectant companion of theirs is about to deliver her newborn before they abruptly broke into the surgery hall and attacked hospitalized Azmi.
Moments after the undercover unit shackled Azmi, the latter’s cousin, Abdullah, was shot on his way out of the W.C. Abdullah breathed his last right on the spot.
Four fatal gunshots, including one in the head, penetrated Abdullah’s body, killing him instantly.
The Israeli unit backtracked from the hospital in a frenzy-stricken manner, holding guns to the heads of paramedics and staff members.

Ghassan al-Rimawi 27
Former Palestinian prisoner Ghassan al-Rimawi, 27, passed away early Tuesday after a long battle with cancer.
Al-Rimawi, a native of the central West Bank city of Ramallah, died in the Jordanian Hussein hospital where he was being treated.
Al-Rimawi was offered treatment by the King Hussein Cancer Foundation in Jordan after Hadassah hospital in Israel refused to take him under the security pretext.
Al-Rimawi had been detained by the Israeli occupation forces three times, twice in 2005 and again in 2010, during which time he developed blood cancer. He was released after seven months in detention.
According to the Council for European Palestinian Relations (CEPR), poor conditions in Israeli prisons have led to the deterioration of health for a large number of Palestinian prisoners.
"Prison clinics have become renowned for offering only aspirin for all health treatments and physicians within the clinics are all soldiers," CEPR said in a report.

Rasha Ahmad Hamed 'Oweissi 24
A Palestinian girl was cold-bloodedly murdered by the Israeli occupation troops on early Monday morning allegedly after she attempted to stab an Israeli soldier in Qalqilya city.
Israeli news outlets claimed a Palestinian girl was shot dead by the Israeli occupation army near the Eliyahu crossing, in southern Qalqilya city, on allegations that she was planning an anti-occupation stabbing attack.
The girl was directly shot before she carried out the alleged stabbing attack.
The casualty reportedly succumbed to her critical wounds shortly after she was shot by the occupation forces.
Right after shooting the girl, the Israeli occupation troops sealed off the military checkpoint, denying Palestinians’ access out of and into the area.
Observers and human rights organizations said most of the Palestinians slain or injured during the ongoing Jerusalem Intifada posed no threat to the occupation soldiers but were rather shot on counterfeit allegations of stabbing attempts.
“Every time the occupation soldiers takes away the life of a Palestinian youth or open fire at him/her, they just place a knife next to his/her body, claim he/she attempted to stab them, and plan for the next crime. The same clichéd scenario has been going on and on for months now,” an on-the-spot observer said.

Israeli Troops Shoot And Kill Young Palestinian Woman
Rasha's suicide letter
A 24-year old woman was killed by Israeli troops Monday morning at a military checkpoint in the West Bank when she approached the checkpoint from afar, holding a knife in her hand and a suicide letter in her bag. She was shot by a soldier while she was still at least 30 feet away from the checkpoint.
The woman was identified as Rasha Ahmad Hamed 'Oweissi. The checkpoint where she was killed is the checkpoint, near the walled-in city of Qalqilia, in the northwestern part of the West Bank. The city is almost completely surrounded by the Israeli Wall, with a checkpoint controlled by Israeli forces allowing or denying entry to the city's residents.
Her suicide letter read as follows, "Thanks be to God, Best wishes and greetings. My dear mother, I don't know what is happening. I just know that I've reached the end of the road. And this is the road that I chose with full consciousness. In defense of my homeland, the young men and women, I cannot bear what I see anymore. But what I know is that I can't take it anymore. My family, my dad, my brothers, forgive me for everything. I just know that I really love you, especially my fiance. Forgive me for everything, I have nothing else but this path. I am sorry for this departure."
Rasha did not attempt to attack anyone, and was apparently suffering from a mental health crisis. Eyewitnesses report that she did not pose a threat at anytime. She was simply standing, holding a knife, waiting for the soldiers to shoot her.
A number of the recent incidents of 'knife attacks' by Palestinians against Israelis have been revealed to have been staged by Israeli forces after the fact. It is unknown if any of the other incidents were attempts to commit "suicide by cop" as it is known in the US - in which a mentally unstable person puts themself in a position to be shot by police, rather than committing suicide themselves.
She is the 80th person to be killed by Israeli forces since October 1st. 8 Israelis have been killed by Palestinians between October 1st and October 18th.
No Israelis have been killed since October 18th, but the Israeli military's daily invasions of Palestinian communities and shooting of protesters with live ammunition have continued unabated.
A 24-year old woman was killed by Israeli troops Monday morning at a military checkpoint in the West Bank when she approached the checkpoint from afar, holding a knife in her hand and a suicide letter in her bag. She was shot by a soldier while she was still at least 30 feet away from the checkpoint.
The woman was identified as Rasha Ahmad Hamed 'Oweissi. The checkpoint where she was killed is the checkpoint, near the walled-in city of Qalqilia, in the northwestern part of the West Bank. The city is almost completely surrounded by the Israeli Wall, with a checkpoint controlled by Israeli forces allowing or denying entry to the city's residents.
Her suicide letter read as follows, "Thanks be to God, Best wishes and greetings. My dear mother, I don't know what is happening. I just know that I've reached the end of the road. And this is the road that I chose with full consciousness. In defense of my homeland, the young men and women, I cannot bear what I see anymore. But what I know is that I can't take it anymore. My family, my dad, my brothers, forgive me for everything. I just know that I really love you, especially my fiance. Forgive me for everything, I have nothing else but this path. I am sorry for this departure."
Rasha did not attempt to attack anyone, and was apparently suffering from a mental health crisis. Eyewitnesses report that she did not pose a threat at anytime. She was simply standing, holding a knife, waiting for the soldiers to shoot her.
A number of the recent incidents of 'knife attacks' by Palestinians against Israelis have been revealed to have been staged by Israeli forces after the fact. It is unknown if any of the other incidents were attempts to commit "suicide by cop" as it is known in the US - in which a mentally unstable person puts themself in a position to be shot by police, rather than committing suicide themselves.
