Mohammad Hesham || محمد هشام

Palestinian journalist & activist fighting to save my community-Masafer Yatta from forced eviction.

[Mohammad Hesham || محمد هشام @MohammadHeshamH]

I have been arrested more than three times in my life. The first time, I was only 14 years old. I didn’t understand what was happening—dozens of soldiers stormed my village and took me without any charge. What accusation could there be against a 14 years old child?
Since then, I have been arrested multiple times and detained dozens of times. This continues to happen because I choose to speak the truth. I document what is happening in my community—home demolitions, attacks, and the ongoing efforts to displace and destroy my community Masafer Yatta.
I will continue to document. I will continue to speak.

“For the first time in my life, I felt completely helpless. There was only one of me and more than 40 of them, backed by the occupation forces. They threw stones at me as I ran; I had no idea if some of them were carrying guns. I barely had enough breath to shout at them, if only to feel that I was not a bystander to the destruction of my own home.”

In a firsthand account for @972mag, @MohammadHeshamH
recounts what it felt like to endure an Israeli settler pogrom. 🧵

[Mohammad Hesham || محمد هشام @MohammadHeshamH]

In the latest Pogrom on my village Tuwani-Masafer Yatta, I was going to lose my family after the terrorists settlers went on a deadly rampage, setting fire to my home and my car the mosque and my neighbors homes .
This is what wrote about with @972mag in my latest article.

🔳Mohammed Huraini @MohammadHuraini doesn’t need anyone to tell his story. He lives it every single day. His message is simple and powerful:

“We are Palestinians. This is our home. We are not leaving.”

🟥I’m honoured to call Mohammed my friend. Please watch, share, and help amplify his voice. The people living this reality deserve to be heard.

Settler terrorism is out of control.

Read this first hand account by @MohammadHuraini of what it’s like to be targeted by terrorists who work together with the Israeli military & Israeli government to impose a regime of terror on millions of Palestinians.

My friend @MohammadHuraini had his car set alight & his family almost burned alive in their home in a pogrom in the West Bank. But please do explain to him why it's problematic to describe the lawless f**** who terrorise his village almost daily as Jewish supremacists

[Mohammad Hesham || محمد هشام @MohammadHeshamH]

ALARM!! Urgent!!

Violent attacks reported in all West Bank!

Packs of settlers - terrorists in full force backed by Israeli soldiers -are calling for "blood", literally.

STATES MUST DEPLOY A PROTECTIVE PRESENCE

“Più di 40 coloni hanno attaccato il mio villaggio quella notte ed è la prima volta nella mia vita che mi sento inutile mentre cerco di aiutare la mia famiglia da dentro la nostra casa in fiamme, chiamiamolo con il suo nome, un pogrom è un pogrom”.

Con queste parole il giornalista palestinese @MohammadHuraini ha raccontato l'attacco avvenuto nella notte tra il 19 e il 20 luglio nel villaggio di Al-Tuwani, a sud di Hebron, nella Cisgiordania occupata.

Secondo fonti locali, i coloni dell'avamposto di Havat Ma'on hanno fatto irruzione nel villaggio e, sotto la protezione delle forze israeliane, hanno utilizzato materiale infiammabile per incendiare la moschea di Al-Tuwani e due abitazioni.

Hesham racconta che le fiamme hanno distrutto la sua auto, la casa della sua famiglia e quelle di altri residenti del villaggio.

Durante l’attacco i coloni hanno gettato benzina su un bambino mentre dormiva nel tentativo di bruciarlo vivo e hanno picchiato una donna incinta con delle pietre.

In un aggiornamento successivo, il giornalista ha raccontato che la donna ha perso il bambino.

Secondo l'Ufficio delle Nazioni Unite per il coordinamento degli affari umanitari (OCHA), nel 2026 gli attacchi dei coloni israeliani sono diventati la principale causa di ferimento dei palestinesi in Cisgiordania, rappresentando il 55% dei casi registrati

Solo tra il 7 e il 13 luglio circa 65 palestinesi, tra cui 18 bambini e 10 donne, sono rimasti feriti dalle forze israeliane o dai coloni. Dall'inizio dell'anno i palestinesi feriti in episodi legati alla violenza dei coloni sono circa 850.

Oxfam denuncia un'escalation senza precedenti: da ottobre 2023 il numero di civili palestinesi uccisi dall'esercito israeliano e dai coloni in Cisgiordania ha superato quello registrato nei 17 anni precedenti, con oltre 1.200 vittime, tra cui quasi 270 bambini.

Una violenza quotidiana, accompagnata da sfollamenti forzati e crescenti restrizioni alla libertà di movimento dei palestinesi che, come osserva la politologa Assal Rad, fatica a trovare “un singolo titolo sui media occidentali”.

The woman lost her unborn child as a result of this attack. She now requires surgery to remove the fetus after he was killed in the Israeli attack.

[Trita Parsi @tparsi]

So Israeli settlers attack a Palestinian village, throw gasoline through a window onto a baby, nearly burning the young child alive, and beat a pregnant woman with stones.

Zero Western media coverage.

The complicity runs so deep...

[Mohammad Hesham || محمد هشام @MohammadHeshamH]

2/2 This time my family succeeded to survive but who will protect us next time because for sure there will be a next time if this terror was not stopped .

[Mohammad Hesham || محمد هشام @MohammadHeshamH]

1/2 Over than 40 settlers attacked my village that night and it’s the first time in my life feeling myself useless trying to help my family from inside our house that was on fire, call it what it is a Pogrom is a Pogrom.

[Adele Shoko @AdeleShoko]

Settlers launched an arson pogrom in the village of Tuwani🇵🇸, nearly burning a young child alive and hitting a pregnant woman with stones.

Palestinian activist @MohammadHuraini , whose family home and vehicle were set on fire, shared what he witnessed and felt that night.
