Local sources reported that the occupation aircraft fired two missiles directly at the vehicle near the entrance to Al-Maghazi camp, completely destroying it and setting it on fire.

Medical teams and Civil Defense crews rushed immediately to the scene, managed to extinguish the fire, recovered the bodies of the victims who were killed instantly, and transferred them to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah.

2. 1,298 violations by the occupation forces and settlers in the West Bank within one week

According to the center, the violations resulted in the killing of four Palestinians and the injury of 33 others. It also documented 151 cases of arrest and detention, while Israeli occupation forces carried out 276 raids across various areas of the West Bank.

3. Settlers continue attacks across West Bank cities under the protection of occupation forces
Israeli settlers attacked homes and property belonging to Palestinian residents in Ramallah, Masafer Yatta, and the town of As-Samu’ south of Hebron. They also attacked the village of Al-Minya, southeast of Bethlehem.

Osama Makhamreh, an activist against settlement expansion in Masafer Yatta, said that settlers stormed the vicinity of the homes of the Obeid Al-Masri family in the Khallet Al-Hummus area south of Yatta, cut the electricity cable supplying the homes, and vandalized residents’ property.

Israeli occupation forces launched a campaign of arrests and raids concentrated in the city of Qalqilya in the northern West Bank.

In Jenin, Israeli forces arrested high school student Aseed Mohammad Amour during a raid on the town of Rummanah west of the city.

5. Occupation army abducts six farmers from Ain Arab one day after burning several homes
The Israeli occupation army abducted six farmers from the town of Ain Arab in the Marjayoun district of southern Lebanon, one day after its forces burned several homes in the same town.

This comes amid continued Israeli violations of the fragile ceasefire agreement in effect since April 17, despite a decrease in violations in recent days following the agreement between the United States and Iran.

Local sources reported that an Israeli force abducted the six farmers while they were working on their land on the outskirts of the border town of Ain Arab before taking them into the occupied territories.

6. Occupation forces arrest a groom and his two brothers after raiding a wedding in Anata

7. Prisoner organizations: The occupation has turned its prisons into an organized system for producing torture
Palestinian prisoner organizations stated that thousands of Palestinian prisoners and detainees are subjected daily to torture and cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment inside Israeli occupation prisons and military camps.

They said that since the beginning of what they described as the genocide against the Palestinian people, these prisons have become an organized system for producing torture through policies of starvation, humiliation, dehumanization, and the infliction of both physical and psychological suffering on detainees.

8. Video: Settlers attack a Palestinian vehicle in Ramallah
Watch: Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian farmers while they were inside their vehicle as they attempted to reach their agricultural land in the Wadi Al-Zarqa area on the outskirts of the village of Beitillu, northwest of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.

9. War crimes suspect Ben Gvir boasts about demolishing Palestinian homes
The rhetoric of war crimes suspect Ben Gvir reflects part of an extremist system that treats home demolitions as an openly declared form of collective punishment.

More concerning, however, is what has been described as an obsession with turning such demolitions into a public spectacle. Ben Gvir is portrayed as not only inciting attacks on Palestinian homes but also attempting to market violence as entertainment.

During 2025 alone, Israeli occupation authorities demolished 1,288 buildings under the pretext of “construction without a permit”—a justification widely criticized because obtaining building permits is considered nearly impossible for Palestinians in the West Bank and Jerusalem.

This represented a 39% increase compared with 2024, averaging approximately 4.7 demolitions per day.

Arwa Al-Reis, president of the Oxford Union debating society, condemned what she described as a campaign of harassment and intimidation led by the organization UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI), following its report to British police alleging that she supported Palestinian resistance.

The organization targeted Al-Reis over leaked WhatsApp messages in which she analyzed the context of armed resistance, arguing that the intensity of resistance is directly proportional to the brutality of the occupation’s repression, while comparing Western descriptions of Palestinian resistance to its former classification of Nelson Mandela as a terrorist before his liberation.

13. Hertie School graduates in Germany raise the Palestinian flag during graduation ceremony
Graduates of the Hertie School in Berlin raised the Palestinian flag and chanted “Free Palestine” during their official graduation ceremony in a display of academic solidarity with the Palestinian cause.

Demonstrators gathered in the southern French region of Occitanie, carrying signs demanding the release of Palestinian prisoners and an end to politically motivated prosecutions, including the recent case targeting Anasse Kazib, spokesperson for the Permanent Revolution party.

Vanessa Bidinoti, a trade unionist in the aviation sector and supporter of the Palestinian cause, stated that French imperialism suppresses voices opposing what she described as the genocide in order to continue its military and political support for Israel.

She stated that tens of thousands of children had been killed, left beneath the rubble, or died from starvation and preventable causes, emphasizing that these children “were loved and had hearts that beat just like your children.”

She argued that the report on which she relied constituted “undisputed evidence of the deliberate targeting of children,” citing documented incidents including a drone allegedly firing on an infant while being breastfed inside a tent, as well as the deaths of 151 children from starvation.
