Genuinely hilarious that anyone thinks you’d have to go out of your way to encounter settler terrorists in the occupied West Bank. You people have no fucking clue what’s going on over here. None
Yesterday I was ambushed and attacked by Israeli settlers in the West Bank, together with the CNN and independent journalists. Here is how it happened:
This is Yisachar Holtzman.
He slashed the tires of the CNN car, smashed our windshield and threw a rock at our car. He is a "professional" settler, previously residing in a terror outpost near Hebron; now near Sinjil.
Make him famous.
Palestinian pediatrician Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya is being held and reportedly tortured in an Israeli prison with no charges, no trial and no Due Process. Netanyahu's government must immediately release him from these lawless, horrific and life-threatening conditions.
Former Palestinian detainee Maher Abdul Latif Younis, one of the longest-serving Palestinians held in Israeli prisons, died early Sunday at the age of 68.
Widely considered a prominent figure in the Palestinian prisoners’ movement, Younis spent roughly four decades in custody before being released on January 19, 2023, after completing a 40-year sentence that began when he was 25 years old.
Following his arrest in 1983, Younis underwent prolonged interrogation and was initially sentenced to death. The sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment, and in 2012 it was reduced again to a fixed term of 40 years.
During his long incarceration, he lost his father in 2008, who himself had previously spent years in Israeli detention.
🚨URGENT: Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s life is in immediate danger, Physicians for Human Rights Israel and his lawyer warned Saturday, after a prison visit revealed the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital bearing fresh, severe injuries to his head, eyes, ears, and neck, so disfigured his own attorney initially struggled to recognize him.
🔹Attorney Nasser Odeh, who saw Abu Safiya Thursday at the underground Rakefet interrogation facility in Nitzan Prison, said he arrived shackled hand and foot, escorted by masked guards, struggling to breathe and speak, unable to sit upright, and repeatedly on the verge of losing consciousness.
🔹Abu Safiya told him that after his Supreme Court appeal was heard June 10, four or five guards entered his solitary cell at Ganot Prison and beat him with a hammer and batons, and that since his June 24 transfer to Rakefet he has been beaten daily, losing consciousness several times without receiving medical treatment.
🔹“This is the last time you will see me,” he told his lawyer. “They brought me here to kill me. I don’t see myself surviving. This is the end.”
🔹PHRI notes the escalation in torture began directly after Abu Safiya challenged his detention in court. He has been held without charge since December 27, 2024, under Israel’s Unlawful Combatants Law.
🔹The group has appealed to Israel’s attorney general and prison service demanding his immediate transfer, an independent medical examination, and an urgent judicial visit “before it is too late.”

I am gravely concerned by reports of a severe deterioration in the condition of Dr. Abu Safiyah.
We reiterate our demands for his release, along with all other doctors being held without charge.
🚨Breaking: Dr. Hussam Abu-Safeia, director of Kamal Edwan Hospital, is being killed by Israeli Occupation Forces.
Dr. Hussam is heavily tutored, and each time his lawyer visits, new injuries are discovered on him.
His last words to his lawyer were: “They brought me here to kill me; this is my end.”
Israel has already killed Dr. Hussam’s son, and now it’s Dr.Hussam’s turn.
Raise awareness and speak out to help him before it’s too late.
Peaceful international activists were left in shock and terror after Israeli settlers attacked them and Palestinian residents in the village of Abu Falah, northeast of Ramallah.
Five international solidarity activists were injured this morning after being assaulted by Israeli settlers between the towns of Turmus Ayya and Abu Falah in the occupied West Bank. The attackers beat the activists and used pepper spray during the assault.
El Club Deportivo Palestino lamenta profundamente el sensible fallecimiento de Saleem Al-Ashqar, arquero palestino de 32 años que defendía los colores del Khadamat Khan Younis y que perdió la vida a manos del ejército israelí.
Nos destroza que hechos como este sigan ocurriendo. Exigimos justicia y paz para #TodoUnPueblo 🇵🇸
Palestinian goalkeeper Salim Al-Ashqar has been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.
He leaves behind his wife of 5 months who is expecting their first child.
Israel routinely kidnaps, tortures, starves and imprisons Palestinian children in the West Bank for no reason other than intimidation.
Here is the story of one of them, Ahmad Hasan from Qusra:
