Today, Thursday, clashes are taking place between the army and the Rapid Support Forces in the vicinity of a military industries complex in southern Khartoum, according to witnesses told AFP, the day after the Support Forces announced their control over it.

Witnesses spoke of "sounds of gunfire and clashes in the area surrounding" the Yarmouk complex, the most prominent military industrial facility in Sudan.

In October 2012, Yarmouk was subjected to air strikes, which Khartoum accused Israel of being behind. The Hebrew state refused to comment officially on the accusations.

In a statement on Wednesday, the support forces announced the achievement of "a new victory (...) with full control of the Yarmouk complex and ammunition depots," noting that the army soldiers fled, leaving behind "quantities of military equipment and vehicles."

And she posted on her Twitter account a tape that she said was "from inside the compound", showing her members celebrating inside a warehouse where machine guns, mortars and huge amounts of ammunition were piled up.

And on the night of Wednesday to Thursday, witnesses spoke of a huge sound and the outbreak of a fire as a result of the explosion of one of the oil storage tanks in the Al-Shajara oil and gas facility near the Yarmouk complex.

The direct cause of the fire was not determined, but witnesses confirmed that the vicinity of the facility has been witnessing battles for more than 48 hours, noting that clouds of smoke are still rising from it on Thursday, and it is visible even 10 km from the site.

Since its outbreak on April 15, battles have continued between the army, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces, led by Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo, with no horizon for a solution.

The conflict resulted in the deaths of more than 1,800 people. However, the actual number of victims may be much higher, according to aid agencies and international organizations. According to the latest figures of the International Organization for Migration of the United Nations, the conflict has caused the displacement of nearly two million people, including more than 476,000 who have crossed into neighboring countries.

The two fighting sides have not fulfilled repeated pledges to a ceasefire that would allow civilians to leave the fighting areas or to provide safe passages for the entry of relief aid.

And last week, the latest truce agreement reached with Saudi-American mediation collapsed on the sidelines of talks hosted in the Saudi city of Jeddah. Riyadh and Washington announced the suspension of the talks, but urged the two sides to return to the negotiating table.

The Hebrew newspaper Haaretz said, on Thursday, that the West Bank and Gaza Strip are facing an acute and dangerous shortage in the availability of medicines for Palestinian patients, especially patients with chronic and serious diseases, who find it difficult to obtain their medicines.

One of the doctors working in the dialysis center at the government hospital in Tubas, in the northern West Bank, said that this crisis has been clearly felt for several weeks, and patients come from several regions to obtain medicines intended for dialysis patients, and we have no way to help them, indicating that there are those who have The ability to buy these medicines, but the vast majority of the population does not have this ability, and in some areas there are not even medicines for diabetes and pressure patients.

While a senior official in the Palestinian Authority told the Hebrew newspaper that the shortage of medicines in the West Bank stems from 3 main reasons, the first of which is the inability of the Authority and the Ministry of Health to pay regularly to suppliers, in addition to the strike of pharmacists in medical centers and hospitals due to not receiving their full salaries, in addition to that In recent months, UNRWA has closed medical centers it runs in refugee camps due to lack of budget.

And the official stated that this is in addition to the fact that the entire Palestinian Authority budget is based on tax funds that Israel collects, and this barely covers salary expenses, including in the Ministry of Health, and since Israel deducts hundreds of millions of tax funds, therefore the Authority does not have the ability to Financing the budget of the Ministry of Power.

For its part, Physicians for Human Rights reported that there has been a jump of tens of percent in the number of Palestinian patients who have arrived in recent weeks at the mobile clinic that runs the association in the West Bank, and a sharp increase in the demand for medicines.

The data indicates that last Saturday, 251 Palestinians out of 2,500 living in the village of Madama in Nablus arrived at the mobile clinic to obtain medicines and receive treatment. Coming from that area in the previous periods.

The association pointed out that due to the acute shortage of medicines, recent weeks have witnessed an increase in the requests it receives from Palestinian medical teams and mayors of cities and villages in the West Bank to distribute medicines and medical equipment, and these include medicines for patients with dialysis, diabetes, blood pressure, and others.

In the Gaza Strip, the Ministry of Health in the Strip issued warnings about the consequences of the lack of medicines for kidney patients, noting that 1,200 patients are at risk of stopping their treatment due to the acute shortage of medicines and basic medical equipment.

The Occupation Prisons Authority believes that its threats to administrative prisoners in order to prevent them from going on hunger strike in protest of their administrative detention, and its violation of international laws and norms against the prisoner movement in general and administrative prisoners in particular, may discourage them from their struggle steps in order to achieve their just demands.

These threats cannot discourage the administrative prisoners from their legitimate decision to declare a comprehensive hunger strike, which they set to begin on the eighteenth of this month, after they have exhausted all struggle steps in order to abolish the outdated administrative detention that even the state put in place during its colonization of Palestine to facilitate The establishment of the occupying state canceled it, because it contradicts international laws and norms and violates human rights to freedom of expression and opinion, and other things.

Before announcing their struggle steps by announcing the date of the comprehensive hunger strike, they took several struggle steps, including refraining from attending the courts. Many of them also carried out and are still doing individual hunger strikes, which led to the death of the prisoner Khader Adnan a few weeks ago, but the occupation prison administrations rejected all their demands. Rather, the Minister of the so-called Israeli National Security instructed the occupation prisons authority to increase the restrictions on prisoners, including administrative prisoners, which prompted them to escalate their protest steps and their decision to use their last weapon, which is a comprehensive hunger strike, despite the risks to their health and lives.

In addition to threatening a number of administrative prisoners, the prison administrations tried to present temptations to a number of others, represented in not imposing penalties on them and not renewing their administrative detention, as is the case now, where the administrative detention of administrative prisoners is renewed several times, and many of them are for years that often reach up to Five or six years, and after their release, the occupation authorities arrest them again.

The prison authorities, with their attempts at this threat and temptation, believe that through this they can succeed in this policy and strike at the unity of the administrative prisoners, and thus thwart the comprehensive hunger strike.

However, it is unlikely that this policy, which relies on divide and rule, will succeed with the administrative prisoners who believe in the rights of their people and their rights as prisoners and fight for their freedom, especially since the occupation authorities do not present any indictments against them and that their arrest comes under allegations of secret files against them, in an attempt to sow dust in the dirt. El-Ayoun and in order to continue their arbitrary detention.

The methods of prison administrations have become exposed, and they cannot succeed in separating the unity of the captive movement in general, and the fate of these methods and policies is a complete failure.

Hence, it is the national and moral duty of all Palestinians to take the broadest steps of solidarity with administrative prisoners and prisoners in general, and to support them and their families to prevent prison administrations from single-handedly excluding them and taking more arbitrary measures against them.

Any accurate assessment of the war in Ukraine must conclude that there is no foreseeable end to the conflict. Both Russia and Ukraine are now stepping up their attacks. Russia continues to find sources to enhance its weapons, and the United States either supplies weapons to Ukraine or facilitates the transfer of new advanced weapons to Ukraine by its allies. International law is “followed more in breach than in bound.” Ukraine cannot turn to the United Nations or the International Court of Justice.

And both institutions that were created precisely to deal with this kind of behavior are immobilized by a lack of capacity, recognition, or support from a superpower, or all of these. As a result, the world split into camps.

There is the United States leading one group of Western countries mainly supporting Ukraine, and there is Russia leading a smaller group of supporters, and there is China, although it is not openly in the Russian camp, but it plays the role of "non-alignment" with the rest. Early efforts by the Biden administration to punish Russia through sanctions met with limited success, as most countries in the Global South chose to commit to non-alignment or to seek "strategic autonomy."

In some cases, this is due to a lack of confidence in the United States. Because of the US foreign policy that has baffled the world in the past two decades, the US is not seen as a reliable partner. Many countries in the global south are unwilling to risk their strong trade and investment ties with Russia and China. After our occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq, our offensive for regime change in Libya, and drone attacks in countries across Asia and Africa, it's hard for other nations to follow the example of the United States as a beacon of righteousness.

For the Arab world, these double standards are of particular concern to the people. Anger over attacks that use excessive force on civilians and the struggle for territorial annexation, some may find justified. But the US claim to moral leadership is unconvincing or even hypocritical to many Arabs.

Finally, there is the argument that states must band together to oppose behavior that threatens the "liberal, rules-based international order." This unique American perception ignores the mention of international law or international agreements that the United States has been violating, or the mention of the International Criminal Court, which the United States does not recognize and mention only when it serves the interests of the United States.

This hides an American attempt to apply the "rules" you want to create the "system" you want. Given this growing disconnect and mistrust between the United States and many other countries, we entered into a new Cold War, rather than mobilizing the world against the war in Ukraine. Some countries oppose our leadership, while most of them are hesitant and put one foot in one camp and the other in another. The tragic fact is that when one side provides new weapons, the other will do the same.

And when one side escalates the proceedings, the other will follow suit. As a result, this war may continue indefinitely, posing untold dangers to the Ukrainian people and the possibility of a broader regional war. The time has come to quell the illusions of a "total and humiliating defeat" and chart a path towards resolving this unwinnable conflict. Instead of fueling the fire, the United States should put China to the test by inviting it to join us in marshalling a new multinational peace coalition to secure sovereignty and security for the Ukrainians.

If we demand a change of perspective and discourse, we will have to provide incentives for peacemaking. Instead of pressuring others to support what they have come to see as our war, and forcing them not to take sides, we must invite them to join the campaign for peace, security, investment and trade that can benefit Eastern and Central Europe. This may seem unrealistic, but it is a better path than the foolish task of stoking this conflict for years to come, with the unrealistic expectation that outright victory is possible.

After Iran announced the readiness of the hypersonic missile (Fatah), and after the announcement of the commander of the Revolutionary Guards, Major General Hossein Salami, and the commander of the Air Force in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, and a number of other leaders of the Revolutionary Guards announced the unveiling of the missile (Fatah) and the announcement of the Revolutionary Guards that This hypersonic ballistic missile was manufactured by the experts of the Aerospace Industry Center of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, so Iran strengthened its military arsenal at all levels, and it is the first time that it manufactures a hypersonic ballistic missile, and this announcement comes while the West has been trying for more than a year to revive the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action regarding The nuclear agreement that was reached in the year 2015 between the major powers and Tehran, and according to the French Foreign Ministry spokesman, he said that Iran is involved in a nuclear escalation that is very disturbing to Israel and the world, and this is what has become known as cutting the hair between Tehran and the West, so Iran despite the warnings of the West after the unveiling of Its ballistic missile says it is within the framework of international law, and there are no violations that warrant this incitement and condemnation. Therefore, with this statement, Tehran is continuing its policy of increasing its progress in the field of aerospace power, and this Iranian flight in the space of military diversity is perhaps a tactic in light of the world's preoccupation with the Ukrainian-Russian war and the situation fragile interior in Israel.

Confused Israel
France's insistence on accusing Iran of manufacturing a hypersonic missile is tantamount to excessive western-Iranian rapprochement, with regard to settling the nuclear file. I do not believe that the French regime does not represent the whole of Europe as a front to clash with Tehran, and at the same time the rest of the European countries have their swords and hearts with Israel while keeping A Moawia’s hair is stretched between them and Tehran. As for the American official level, there is no official response regarding what Iran has produced, a “hypersonic missile,” until the writing of this article. However, all that worries Israel worries the Americans. The response is clear: more boycotts in the foreseeable future, but it remains The international dispute with Tehran is possible. The question is, is the production of this missile just protection and fear of an Israeli-American attack? This is what Tehran explains, so doubt, fear and anxiety remain from the days of the leaders of the occupying state, with this I can say that Iran has shuffled the cards and increased the gap between it and the world, and the European card for settling the Iranian nuclear file has become in the wind, with this the ball is in the Israeli court, as the possibility of launching raids Israel in the Iranian depth is on the table of the mini-cabinet, but it is limited, and remains conditioned on American approval in the short term, and this is excluded as a result of the approaching election campaign that will begin at the end of this year.

Badin does not gamble
It is no longer a secret to anyone that the United States of America does not involve itself in a war adventure with Iran. The arenas of conflict with the United States are open, led by China and Russia. These fronts are still wide open. The priority is not Tehran according to the American agenda, China first and Russia second. America remains holding the stick. From the middle in dealing with the Iranian file, despite what Tehran produced from manufacturing the Fateh missile, it does not mean anything to it as long as there is no Iranian threat to the interests of the United States of America in the Middle East, as there is Israeli pressure on the White House to stop it from producing a nuclear bomb, only Some of the entity’s leaders specialized in nuclear programs, the Iranian nuclear bomb will see the light within 12 days, thus Tehran has confused Israel and made it flounder left and right, at a time when the White House plays the role of calming as if it is giving it any narcotic needles to Israel, in the end no one can He is certain of an American decision to confront Iran militarily, but the occupying state remains dependent on the next president of the United States of America, and supports the direction of the Republican Party, which often agrees with it on the Iran file and other files, especially the Palestinian issue. It is the only one in its hands at present, and we do not forget the political and ideological division that the occupying state is suffering from, and the weakening of its internal front. In conclusion, all roads are closed to it today. Despite the widening gap between Iran and the West at the present time, the old continent has only statements and denunciations in its repertoire. It is working from The door to preserving Israel's security, and they found it, and also to restore relations with Tehran for its personal interests.

In the conclusion of his exceptional study on (melting consciousness or redefining torture), as he called it, he proves the accuracy of what indicates the ambition of the Zionists to control the prisoners by formulating / melting their consciousness, as he quotes Yaakov Gnoot, director of the Prison Service at the time, what he said to Gideon Ezra, Minister of Internal Security in the year 2006 And in the hearing of the prisoners when he visited Gilboa prison: (Rest assured...you have to be confident that I will make them (the prisoners) raise the Israeli flag and chant the Tikva).

Genot or the intelligence officers in prisons may have read Michel Foucault or Zygmunt Baumen and other social theorists, and learned about the methodologies of control, domination, and control of individuals and groups. The results, in general, contradict their calculations. The prisoners did not sing the Tikva (the Zionist anthem), nor did they raise the Zionist flag. On the contrary, since 2006, their collective and individual struggles have escalated to record levels.

As usual, life does not proceed according to the rulers of academic researchers and the analyzes of those working in the intelligence services. What they fail to realize, and what they fail to measure (the methodological measurement tools) that are sacred to them, is the will armed with a deep-rooted ideological awareness. Nevertheless, credibility requires acknowledging their achievement of certain and serious successes, especially in nurturing the phenomenon of retreat in the unified struggle in the captive movement, which led to the disintegration of some of its joints, through the creation and development of the kapo system, which was dealt with carefully in his study and did not neglect it. Yet their collective and individual struggles continue, deepen and increase. That is the overriding positive outlook.

Walid Daqqa in his steadfastness over the course of 37 years in captivity, his intellectual activity, scientifically sober, exposing the policies of the Prisons Directorate, his meaningful literary writings directed at young people, and his defiance of his deadly disease with tenacity and a human spirit that embraces the humanity of his wife, Sana, and his daughter, Milad, constituted a model of that deep-rooted national ideological awareness. Even his marriage in captivity and the birth of a birth in this way is symbolic. Whoever wagered that the prisoner would chant (the tikfa) and raise the flag of the Zionists, here he is associated with the companion of Shabak al-Ziyara for many years while he was a prisoner, and he gives birth with smuggled semen in insistence, like others, on living the humanity of childbearing and caressing the child despite the nose of the Zionists and despite the restrictions of the visit.

The struggling prisoner does not need to prove his humanity, for that is a foregone conclusion. Rather, he is the one who deserves to live it. The Zionist jailer is the one who lacks his humanity in exchange for the humanity of the prisoner fighter. Walid not only confirmed his humanity, but confirmed that his consciousness was not fused, just as the consciousness of thousands of imprisoned militants did not fuse, but rather he exposed the policy of smelting consciousness that targets the prisoners.

During all stages of Walid's life in captivity, he did not stop playing his leadership role in the captive movement, and I was honored to have experienced this role in Ashkelon prison in the year 97, and from the position of the conscious fighter of his national role within the families, he separated by this behavior from a handful (leaders) who chose to play the role of capo . Walid did not stop producing sober knowledge, literary writing for young people, and building fraternal and comradely relationships witnessed by the multitudes of those who lived with him in captivity.

That is the awareness that cannot be melted, that is, if you will, it is also the awareness that is the limit of myth according to the poetic expression of Muzaffar al-Nawab. Walid in confronting the policy of daily killing, as the martyrs Nasser Abu Hamid and Khader Adnan and those who preceded them faced it, and (daily killing) is a real expression, not a metaphor, confirming that the aspirations of the Zionist jailer to melt the prisoners’ awareness in general are pipe dreams, and Walid Daqqa is only a model of awareness that cannot be melted.

Imagine if a Hebrew, Israeli, Jewish child, who was only two years old, was shot by a Palestinian Arab, whether Muslim, Christian or Druze, as the Israeli soldier did by shooting live bullets in the head of the two-year-old Muhammad Haitham al-Tamimi from the village of Nabi Saleh.

Yes, he was shot in the head while he was inside his father's car, who was also wounded by a bullet that put him in the hospital.

Two years old, the child, Muhammad al-Tamimi, was targeted by a sniper with a rifle with a scope, according to reports, and therefore one of the possibilities applies to him:

First, it aims to kill the child and his father, so that his family and the people of his village may feel fear and rush to leave. By doing so, he has achieved a strategic goal for the colony by “dispossessing” the Palestinians and their departure on the grounds of preserving their lives, and not on their land, country, and homeland.

Secondly, because he is a racist hater who looks at the Palestinians with hatred, hostility, racism, and in a fascist way, because the child and his family do not deserve life. A target for education and training, by shooting and injuring him, as he is devoid of any rights. It is not excluded that the killer sniper will receive the reward for his criminal act against the Arab without bringing him to any accountability, as happened with the killer of journalist Sherine Abu Aqleh, who remained unidentified.

Third, he is insane, insane, devoid of reason and balance, and acts without the slightest responsibility as long as the victim is a Palestinian Arab, and not an Israeli Jew.

The killing of a Palestinian has become normal at the hands of the colony’s soldiers, tools and rules. The instructions from their official military security leaders say that if you feel danger, just a feeling is for you to act and kill without any introduction, and without any prior warning, and this explains the continuation of the daily killings of Palestinians by the army. colony and occupation settlers.

The Palestinian people pay a heavy price for their steadfastness on their land, where there are many means and circumstances of liquidation, and the result is one: killing and death, at the hands of the Israelis. Really for how long??.

They show solidarity and support for the people of Ukraine, and they show a lack of interest towards the people of Palestine. Isn't that a form of complicity with the Israeli criminal??.

On the anniversary of al-Hakim's departure, I am reminded of a saying by which he defined himself (I am a Marxist, leftist in culture, and the Islamic heritage is an integral part of my intellectual and psychological structure. I am concerned with Islam as much as any Islamic political movement cares. Arab nationalism is also an integral component of my components... I am in a state of harmony With my nationalism, my Christianity, my Islamic culture, and my progressive Marxism).

From the beginnings, he linked the Palestinian fate to the Arab destiny, the national struggle to the national struggle. The issue of Palestine is an Arab issue and the essence of the Arab conflict, and there is no solution to the Palestinian issue except within the framework of an Arab solution, and there is no victory for the cause without an Arab victory. His disagreement or intersection with the nationalist and communist parties stemmed from this angle.

In his message to the "inside", in the mid-1980s, he borrowed Arab symbols, "We have to be the bearers of a message like Muhammad and Jesus, and have the courage of Khaled and the justice of Omar." But after the collapse of the Soviet regime in the late eighties and the disintegration of the state alloy, he wrote, "I am affected by the collapse less than anyone else." I know that capitalism is not eternal and that humanity dreams and seeks justice.”

In the global stage, when class polarization worsened and the monopoly of the minority became widespread while the majority became poorer and oppressed, there is no solution to the contradiction in capitalism between the development of the productive forces and the stagnation of production relations, except by transcending the socio-economic formation, as history does not stop and has no end.

Accordingly, the national pillar and the ideological pillar are two fundamental pillars and analysis tools in the intellectual-political structure of the wise man, and he is guided by them and is never separated from them. He intensified this with a famous saying, "Neither tactics should violate strategy nor politics should violate ideology."

The question of nationalism and the question of Marxism may seem complex and contradictory, but whoever follows al-Hakim and his political practice discovers a solution and a remedy.

Obviously, the question of nationalism and Marxism is great and ambiguous, and delving into the legacy of al-Hakim and Praxis al-Hakim is also a complex issue. Al-Hakim bequeathed to us a process that has not yet been researched, despite what dozens of Arab intellectuals wrote about him. The condition of research work is that his legacy, consisting of thousands of pages, be compiled and published. “I collected 95% of it,” as he put it. And such a huge file of a thinker, theoretician and political leader at the same time, should not be kept on the shelves or allowed to expire in time, as it transcends in its importance the limits of Palestinian factionalism to research centers, students and the Arab revolution movement in general, and whoever knows about Al-Hakim’s global connections knows that his importance is not limited In the Arab region as well.

And in the haste imposed by the logic of the question and the space of the place, I will give an answer, perhaps it will cover enough of the question’s eloquence and ambiguity, with what it requires of dismantling and recombination, noting that the vast areas of the wise’s vision were linked and generated by political practice, which gives them privacy and strength in what liberates them. Of "kalalogia" and "academia" without academics, bearing in mind that al-Hakim has been persevering for six decades in meeting and dialogue with the most prominent Arab thinkers and intellectuals with his listening characteristic, as he is "perfect at listening to you, as if he wants to know more from you than you want to know." You know from him, it is the humility of adults who listen to the changing rhythm of time. Darwish, who moved from a university professor after his average as a student was 96% to a doctor and a professional revolutionary, so he collected the cultural and political early, which prompted him to assign an intellectual, Dr. "He gets to know Kanafani, Bilal Al-Hassan, Fadl, Essam Al-Naqeeb, and Ahmed Khalifa" since that period.... Just as it was not surprising that he harmonized with Dr. Wadih Haddad, with his exceptional merits, and the trade unionist-intellectual Ahmed Al-Yamani, with his class sense mixed with the popular bottom.

The Nakba - the ethnic cleansing of 1948, as a historical tragedy whose chapters continue to this day, was the turning point that decided the personality of al-Hakim, who spent his life to defeat this Nakba and defeat its effects. Since then, he concluded that "Arab backwardness and the Arab experience are the reason..." and thus "the traditional and feudal systems fell" without dropping his dream, which he clung to and did not budge from, "the liberation of Palestine, every inch" as a steadfast national and national position, rejecting the 1947 partition decision that grants the Jewish Yishuv 56 % While the Jews had only 5.6% of the land and a resistance "was what resulted from the Nakba of 1948.... At the time he praised the national role of Haj Amin al-Husseini, he paved the way for building a new political-cultural-social movement.

National stations in the wise thought and practice

The beginning was the establishment of the Arab Nationalist Movement, which began its precursors in the early fifties of the last century, and acquired this name officially in 1956, as indicated in the book “Revolutionaries Never Die,” and it spread to most Arab countries.

It is true that al-Hakim relied on the productions of Sati’ al-Husari and Constantine Zureik, and with his early companions he studied Arab history and religions…..but he emphasized that “nationalism is an affiliation that stems from geography, history, common interests, and culture.” It is not interjected or imagined, it is a process and a process at the same time and is differentiated over other nationalities.

He expressed his early admiration for the Nasserite "revolution" and its achievements. Indeed, the nationalists joined the Egyptian-Syrian unity government in 1958. Al-Hakim's meetings with Abdel Nasser indicate that Al-Hakim criticized the absence of democracy, and that this absence is a major factor in the disintegration of the unity contract and the environment from which the enemies of unity benefited. ... "Since the masses can only be mobilized through democracy.... Freedom and democracy are the conditions for marching towards unity, development and development, investing the nation's potential and confronting national enemies."

The branch of the Arab nationalists in Yemen led the liberation struggle against the British occupier and wrested independence for South Yemen. While their branch in the Dhofar region fought fierce fighting.

Without underestimating the role of the movement in spreading enlightenment and renaissance culture that is biased towards science, reason, citizenship, and the pluralistic and electoral democratic demand... along with adopting national policies hostile to colonialism and the enemy camp, and showing the interdependence between its circles.

As for the defeat of June 1967, al-Hakim considered it a "defeat of the regimes and their programs" and did not detract from the ability of the Arab nation to rise and win.... Therefore, he greatly cheered the canonical uprising of 1987 as a popular initiative that put the occupation in a state of defense, and he would suddenly repeat in his speeches or while eating a meal "Nothing is louder than the voice of the uprising," and the same thing was in the victory of the Lebanese resistance in 2000 and 2006... Certainly, he could have seen the victory of the Tunisian uprising armies today as a credibility for his trust in the people and his bet on the nation.

Even when the Syrian judiciary sentenced him to death in the early sixties and arrested him in 1968 by the head of intelligence, Al-Junaidi, who went to meet him in the hope that he would obtain facilities for the resistance activity, only to find himself in solitary confinement for eight months until the martyr Wadih Haddad liberated him in a smart operation without bloodshed... He disagreed with Abdel Nasser over the Rogers project of 1970, the eradication of the Palestinian gun from Jordan, and his role with other resistance factions in revolutionizing and supporting the Lebanese national movement that took control of 82% of the country in 1976 before being massacred... and Camp David 1978 and Oslo 1993.

Al-Hakim carefully and closely examined the class-economic-political-cultural transformations that took place in Egypt in the seventies and led to Camp David, and showed the implications of that for the Arab nation and the Palestinian cause, and the resulting detachment of Egypt from the front of the conflict, and... and did not His confidence in Arab nationalism is shaking.

As for al-Hakim's disagreement with President Saddam's policies, it did not prevent him from taking risks and traveling from Damascus to Baghdad amid the beating of the drums of war, knowing that he might be prevented from returning to Syria, but President al-Assad said, "This is an honest nationalist man, even if we disagree with him," and he assured President al-Assad, "I Arab, and I have the right to reside in Syria.” Hence his participation in many popular Arab conferences that included all colors of the political and intellectual spectrum.

Al-Hakim is a national story. And his story starts from the ground of the first national cause (the Palestinian cause) to which he devoted his life, in every sense of the word, making history and participating in its struggles, struggles and battles, with the political and military massacres that the revolution was subjected to, and (his clear intellectual and moral structure was very tight and coherent). And stubbornness) M. Darwish... He did not hesitate in the fateful cohesion with his brother Abu Ammar in the Great Battle of Beirut in 1982 and the strategic dispute with him over the Oslo option and his refusal to return "under the banner of Oslo, without the return of millions of refugees" and his persistent confrontation of right-wing tendencies that violate historical and national rights.

Whether the activity of the Arab Nationalist Movement, which he led as a first man, or the establishment of the Popular Front and its leadership as a first man as well, when it was a second force filling the world with its presence, the goal was “the liberation of Palestine and the return of the people of the country to their homeland.” The front is a ramified march, and it deserves, like other major factions, to conduct research studies about it, and on the way is a book of mine related to the matter.

The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate condemned, on Thursday, the continued systematic targeting and crimes against Palestinian journalists by the Israeli occupation forces, the latest of which was at dawn today.

In a statement, the Syndicate indicated that the journalist, Moamen Samreen, was wounded by a metal bullet fired by the occupation soldiers in the head, and he was transferred to Ramallah Hospital for treatment, and the journalist Rabih Mounir was wounded by a metal bullet in the abdomen and is still being treated in Ramallah Hospital, after the occupation forces targeted the press crews while they were covering the raid. Occupation of the city of Ramallah last night.

The Syndicate stressed that the perpetrators of these crimes will not escape punishment, and the Syndicate will continue its efforts to prosecute these criminal killers in the international courts and the International Criminal Court.

In turn, the Journalist Support Committee expressed its concern at the continued "Israeli" occupation forces targeting press crews with live and rubber bullets and poison gas bombs, while they were performing their professional work, to discourage and prevent them from practicing their professional work in covering what is happening in the cities and villages of the occupied West Bank.

The committee held the occupation fully responsible for the life of journalist Samreen, saying: "The repeated targeting of journalists while performing their professional work aims to discourage them from continuing their work in exposing the occupation's crimes against the Palestinian people."

She stressed the need to hold "Israel" accountable by investigating it for the crimes it commits against journalists, so that it does not escape punishment for the crimes committed against Palestinian journalists.

The Ukrainian government has allocated 41 million US dollars to provide drinking water to the affected areas after the destruction of the dam of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station, the State Agency for Reconstruction and Infrastructure Development reported on Wednesday.

The agency said in a statement that it would build a main line in southern Ukraine to restore water supplies to towns and villages facing water shortages.

The statement said that the 87-kilometer pipeline will consist of three sections with a total capacity of pumping about 300,000 cubic meters of water per day.

It added that parts of the Dnipropetrovsk region in the center of the country and Zaporizhia, Mykolaiv and Kherson regions in the south would face a water shortage due to the accident at the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station.

The destruction of the dam at the station caused a decrease in the water level in the Kakhovka reservoir and severe flooding in the surrounding areas.

According to the group operating Ukrainian nuclear power plants ((Energoatum)), the destruction of the dam may negatively affect Ukraine's Zaporizhia nuclear power plant.

Russia and Ukraine traded accusations over the attack on the hydroelectric power station.

The Hebrew newspaper, Haaretz, revealed today, Thursday, that the so-called Israeli Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, is using extremist Bentzi Gopstein to take many important decisions related to the work of his ministry and police affairs.

Gopstein is a well-known right-wing activist responsible for the extremist "Lahava" movement. He was prevented from running in the recent Knesset elections, and he is being tried for incitement to racism and terrorism against the Palestinians.

According to the Hebrew newspaper, Gopstein advises Ben Gvir on issues related to the police, its commissioner, and the supervisors of its security system.

The newspaper quoted several sources as saying that Gopstein was involved in decisions related to the leadership of the Israeli police and daily activities, including the appointment of many officers. He was also present in several closed-door meetings held in Ben Gvir's office in the Ministry of National Security.

He also advised the head of the extremist Lahava organization, Ben Gvir, to ask the police to launch a large-scale operation in occupied East Jerusalem, following the attack that took place in the city last February, and at that time Ben Gvir announced that he had instructed the police to prepare for Operation Defensive Wall 2, instructions that turned out to be It was contrary to the position of political officials and the police.

An Israeli security source said that Gopstein and the lawyer, Hanael Dorfman, and Ben Gvir's wife, Ella, are the closest to him and influence him and his decisions. Pat is described as the most dominant advisor.

Gopstein refused to comment on what was stated in the report, while Ben Gvir's office considered it just defamation and would file a lawsuit.

Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen visited the Demilitarized Zone on the border between South Korea and its northern counterpart.

According to the Hebrew website Ynet, Cohen arrived this morning to that region as part of an official visit to South Korea.

Cohen described North Korea as an isolated country, saying: "The world must ensure that Iran does not become the second North Korea. It is time to take difficult diplomatic decisions to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons and threatening global stability."

At dawn on Thursday, the Israeli occupation forces launched a campaign of arrests among citizens in separate areas of the West Bank.

According to local sources, the campaign of arrests was concentrated in the town of Beita, south of Nablus, affecting 13 citizens, most of them from the Hamayel family, while 5 citizens were arrested in the town of Arraba, south of Jenin.

The occupation forces raided dozens of houses in the town of Beita, and subjected their residents to a field investigation after they tampered with and destroyed their contents.

In Arraba, the occupation forces raided several houses and arrested Youssef Shaaban, Nadim Abu Salah, Muhammad Abu Obeida, Basil Bosta, and Jawad Sarhad.

In Yatta, south of Hebron, Mohie Abu Fanar was arrested.

The occupation forces also stormed the Aqabat Jabr camp in Jericho and handed the family of the prisoner Maher Shloun an order to demolish his house under the pretext of his responsibility for a shooting attack that recently killed a settler.

In occupied Jerusalem, the child, Zain Muhammad Badr, and the child, Karam Abdel-Khaleq, were arrested from Beit Duqqu, northwest of the city.

On Thursday morning, the Israeli occupation forces blew up the house of prisoner Islam Farroukh in the Ramallah Al-Tahta area.

The house of the prisoner Farroukh's family is located in a four-storey residential building with an area of 250 square meters. It houses the prisoner's parents and his four sisters.

Just before midnight, large Israeli forces stormed that area, surrounded the house before storming it, and then evacuated the surrounding houses from the residents.

The Israeli engineering forces rigged the house with explosives, before carrying out the bombing in the morning.

During the raid, dozens of young men clashed with the occupation forces, who used live and rubber-coated metal bullets and tear gas canisters.

At least 10 civilians, including journalists, were injured during the clashes in the area, while the occupation forces were shot at.

The occupation forces had arrested the prisoner Islam Farroukh, who holds the Jerusalem ID, on December 27, 2022, claiming that he was responsible for detonating two explosive devices at two bus points in occupied Jerusalem, which led to the killing of settlers and the injury of dozens.

Palestinian and European officials warned today (Wednesday) of Israel's implementation of a massive settlement project in eastern Jerusalem that would eliminate the option of the internationally recognized two-state solution.

The Hebrew public radio said that a major settlement planning committee will meet next week to discuss the controversial "E1" project in East Jerusalem.

The radio reported yesterday (Tuesday) that the settlement movement and right-wing religious parties are seeking, through the implementation of the project, to build about 3,400 homes in a new neighborhood of the Ma'aleh Adumim settlement.

The radio indicated that two hearings will be held next Monday on the project to deal with objections to the planned settlement expansion with representatives of local Palestinian municipal authorities as well as Israeli non-governmental organizations.

Amal Jadu, Undersecretary of the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, told reporters in Ramallah that the project poses a great danger as it destroys the possibility of a two-state solution, which is the solution adopted by the international community as a solution to the Palestinian cause.

Jado added that the European Union, the US administration and the international community put pressure on Israel not to implement the project when it was developed under the government of Benjamin Netanyahu.

It warned that the implementation of the project would completely eliminate the possibility of communication between the north and south of the West Bank, would cut it in the middle, and close the possibility of establishing a contiguous Palestinian state geographically.

Jado indicated that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is communicating directly with the partners in the European Union, and letters will be sent to the foreign ministers of the countries of the world, in addition to the issuance of directives to Palestinian ambassadors all over the world to strengthen the positions of countries that reject the project that undermines the two-state solution.

The Palestinian official called for the implementation of United Nations resolutions on Palestine as applied in other conflicts taking place in the world, noting that there is a "significant slowdown" when it comes to the issue of the State of Israel.

In turn, the Deputy Secretary of the Central Committee of the Palestinian National Liberation Movement (Fatah), Sabri Saidam, considered that the field conditions are likely for further field escalation in light of the Israeli project aimed at separating the West Bank.

Saidam told the official Voice of Palestine radio that matters are "probable for further escalation on the ground in light of the project aimed at separating the West Bank into two halves and ending the Palestinian state."

He added that "every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and as long as Israel continues its policy of repression, it will not enjoy security, as there will be more Palestinian popular resistance towards their policies."

Saidam continued, "The Israeli occupation will be convinced that the Palestinian people is not a project of liquidation, but rather a project of survival," accusing the "silent" countries of being partners in the sustainability of the occupation and colonial liquidation.

The settlement file is the most prominent aspect of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and one of the main reasons for the suspension of the last peace negotiations between the two sides before mid-2014.

Ahmed Al-Ruwaidi, advisor to the Palestinian Presidency for Jerusalem Affairs, considered that the demolition of Palestinian homes and settlements in the city of Jerusalem are two sides of the same coin, calling on the International Criminal Court to intervene and take action to stop the Israeli practices and "illegal crimes."

Al-Ruwaidi said in a statement, "The Israeli occupation wants from the policy of demolition to expel the people of Jerusalem and change the demographic situation and make the Palestinians a minority that does not exceed 20% compared to the Israelis, which seeks to increase their percentage to 80%."

He added, "The occupation uses a policy of demolition to expel people from their homes, and that approximately 22,000 homes are threatened with demolition in Jerusalem," noting that the Israeli authorities demolish 30 facilities per month, especially in the old area of the city.

Al-Ruwaidi added, "The Israeli government's mentality continues with its policy of demolition and settlement and does not heed any international pressure," pointing out that the criminal court has begun "to lose its credibility as it is silent on any issue related to the occupied Palestinian territories."

The media official at the European Union Mission in Jerusalem and Ramallah, Shadi Othman, told reporters in the city of Ramallah that the project constituted a strategic threat along the Palestinian territories and the possibility of implementing the two-state solution.

Othman said that the region is vital and has dangerous dimensions on all the political situation and what is happening on the ground, and if the project is implemented, it will divide the West Bank into two halves, indicating that the European Union follows up the matter in a precise, direct and almost daily manner.

Othman added that the settlements are "illegal under international law and resolutions of international legitimacy," noting that these practices must stop.

He explained that the European Union is implementing projects in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, especially areas classified as "C", as they support the Palestinian people in their presence on the land and confront this settlement policy.

The Palestinians want to declare the eastern part of Jerusalem the capital of their future state, while Israel insists that Jerusalem, which annexed the eastern part of it in 1967, be unified and its capital.

The so-called Israeli Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben Gvir, renewed his punitive measures against Palestinian prisoners in the occupation prisons, which he has recently tightened.

According to Arab Channel 7, Ben Ghafir instructed the Prison Service to sign a decision depriving prisoners of free dental treatment.

And the Hebrew channel indicated that the decision allows dental treatment at the personal expense of the prisoners, and not for free, on the pretext that this costs the Israeli government hundreds of millions of shekels annually.

The decision includes tooth extraction and examination, periodic examination, and a panorama image.

Ben Gvir commented by saying: Slowly we will change conditions and cancel the privileges of "terrorists", and there is no law to grant them extraordinary privileges.

Mahmoud Al-Aloul, deputy head of the Fatah movement, warned today, Wednesday, of the decline in the popularity of the Fatah movement headed by President Mahmoud Abbas, due to its failure to fulfill the promises it made to the Palestinians.

"I can acknowledge the decline in Fatah's presence among the masses," Al-Aloul told reporters in the city of Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank.

He added, "Fatah adopted peace options and promised them to the people, but was unable to achieve them... (This was) a major reason for its decline in popularity."

Al-Aloul (72 years) is one of the senior Palestinian leaders and one of the most important expected candidates to succeed the current President Abbas (87 years), especially since he is close to the president and could temporarily fill the void.

Al-Aloul's statements are considered a rare recognition by a senior official in the Fatah movement, which has been in control of the West Bank since the Israeli and Palestinian sides signed the Oslo peace agreement in 1993.

Abbas canceled the presidential and legislative elections that were scheduled for 2021, citing Israel's refusal to allow Palestinians to vote in East Jerusalem, which it has occupied since 1967.

Opinion polls indicated the progress of the Islamic Hamas movement, and it was likely that it would win the elections, if they took place.
An opinion poll conducted by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research showed that only 35 percent of the Palestinians would vote for Fatah if legislative elections were held today.

In the last elections held by the Palestinians in 1996, during the presidency of the late President Yasser Arafat, Fatah obtained 89 percent of the votes.

Regarding questions about who will succeed Abbas, Al-Aloul ruled out that he would be the one to succeed him, and said, "We will look for someone from the younger generation."

On the possibility of the dismissed members of Fatah returning to the movement, Al-Aloul said, "I think this matter is behind us."

In 2011, President Abbas expelled the head of the General Intelligence, Muhammad Dahlan, from the movement, accusing him of complicity in the death of former leader Arafat.

Likewise, Abbas dismissed the leader, Nasser Al-Qudwa, a veteran diplomat who had previously held the foreign ministry portfolio.

Al-Qudwa was dismissed from the movement founded by his uncle, Yasser Arafat, in 1965, after he announced his candidacy on a list competing with Abbas's list in the legislative elections that were scheduled for May 2021.

The number of Palestinians in the West Bank is about 3 million.

Approximately 490,000 Israeli settlers live in the West Bank in settlements that international law considers illegal.

Al-Aloul's office confirmed that the statements published by the media this evening were taken out in an incorrect context, especially with regard to talking about the successor to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and some issues related to the Fatah movement.

The Hebrew channel Reshet Kan reported, this evening, Wednesday, that the Israeli army decided to fortify the lower area of ​​its military vehicles that carry out their tasks in the northern regions of the West Bank, especially Nablus and Jenin.

According to the channel, this comes after the explosive devices used by the resistance caused damage to the mechanisms involved in the operations.

The channel pointed to the recent increase in the use of explosive devices and their development by the resistance in the West Bank.

The Secretary of the Executive Committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization, Hussein Al-Sheikh, called for pressure on the Israeli government to stop all unilateral measures.

This came during his meeting in his office in Ramallah, today, Wednesday, with the US Special Representative for Palestinian Affairs, Hadi Amr.

The Sheikh discussed, with Amr, many issues, the latest developments, political developments, and the continuous Israeli escalation, as well as many bilateral Palestinian-American issues.

It was revealed that an Israeli military force had arrested, about a week ago, a Palestinian policeman from Tulkarm camp.

According to the Hebrew Channel 7, the detainee is policeman Alaa Khaled Qatto, a resident of Tulkarm camp, and he was arrested after a 4-month pursuit.

The site indicated, according to what the Israeli military censors allowed to reveal, that Qatto was apparently hiding in Jericho inside a site belonging to the Palestinian Authority, and when he was harassed, he preferred to return to Tulkarm camp.

And the site indicated that his location was determined after accurate intelligence information, and an arrest operation was carried out for him, during which clashes took place with gunmen who threw explosive devices, causing damage and slightly wounding a conscript.

The Shin Bet police accused Katto of planning to carry out an assassination operation against Yossi Dagan, head of the Settlements Council in the northern West Bank.

According to the Hebrew channel, Qatto confessed to planning to assassinate Dagan.

Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh said, "We are facing Israeli aggression and continuous war in various forms, against our people, our land, our water, our money, our narrative, and our Islamic and Christian sanctities, and that the Israeli occupation deprives our people of their most basic rights, as it places restrictions on movement with military checkpoints and walls, and denies us our right to elections and seizing our lands, demolishing homes and displacing their inhabitants.”

This came during his meeting with the European Union's Special Representative for Human Rights, Eamonn Gilmour, today, Wednesday, in his office in Ramallah, in the presence of the European Union's representative to Palestine, Sven Kon von Burgsdorff.

Shtayyeh asked: "How long will the international silence continue towards what is happening here in Palestine in terms of violations and measures of the occupation?", calling for an end to the international double standards regarding our cause, and holding Israel accountable for its crimes against our people.

He continued, "Since the beginning of the year, more than 160 martyrs, including 28 children and 6 women, have died at the hands of the occupation forces and settlers, and Israel continues to detain hundreds of martyrs in refrigerators and graves of numbers."

Shtayyeh pointed out that since 1967, Israel has uprooted 2.5 million trees from our lands, including 800 thousand olive trees, and there are now 751 thousand settlers in the West Bank, and the occupation government wants to raise their number to about one million settlers at the expense of our land, water and the lives of our children.

He called on the European Union and the international community to put pressure on Israel to obtain our right to hold elections in all Palestinian territories, including Jerusalem.

US Senator Chris Van Hollen (Democrat from Maryland) issued a statement on Tuesday calling for the declassification of a "summary report" of the US security coordinator in the occupied Palestinian territories and the Israeli occupation authorities, General Michael Finzel, after reviewing the report prepared by Finzel about the circumstances of the killing of the Palestinian journalist. American Sherine Abu Aqleh.

In his statement, Van Hollen said, "I would like to commend the United States Security Coordinator for Israel and the Palestinian Authority (USSC) General Michael Wenzel and his team for completing this inspiring summary report on the shooting death of journalist and American citizen Sherine Abu Aqleh. The USSC and his team approached their mission with objectivity and the utmost professional integrity." .

The senator, who demanded that those responsible for the killing of Sherine be punished from day one, revealed that: “Based on the information previously provided to me by the State Department, the Security Council and its team were not allowed access to key witnesses, and therefore they were unable to conduct an independent investigation into the shooting death of Sherine Abu Aqleh. As such, this summary report does not and cannot shed new light on the state of mind of the individual responsible for firing the fatal shot.

The senator, a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee and other US Senate committees, adds: “However, the report provides very important insights into the circumstances that led to the death of Shireen Abu Aqleh, including relevant information and findings about the conduct of the IDF unit involved in that operation.” In addition to other IDF units operating in the West Bank," noting that "in the aftermath of the killing of Shirin Abu Aqleh, Minister Blinken asked the Government of Israel to review the IDF's rules of engagement in the West Bank, but it was refused - and this review is still necessary." .

"Following my review of the USSC report (General Wenzel), I urge the administration to immediately declassify it in its entirety," Van Hollen said, asking US President Joe Biden's administration to declassify the report. "I firmly believe that a public release of the report is vital to ensuring transparency and accountability." In the shooting death of American citizen and journalist Shereen Abu Aqleh and in avoiding avoidable wrongful deaths in the future – goals we must all support.”

It is noteworthy that Senator Van Hollen demanded the declassification of the summary report prepared by the US security coordinator between the Palestinian Authority and the Israeli occupation authorities since the announcement of the preparation of the summary report at the beginning of last May.

In an argument with Barbara Leaf, US Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs last Wednesday (31/5/23), Van Hollen stressed, “As you probably know, I have been trying for weeks now to get the updated and summarized report prepared by General Wenzel. [the American security coordinator] regarding the shooting death of Sherine Abu Aqleh (American-Palestinian journalist)," stressing that his patience was running out.

Last night, the Hebrew Channel 12 published a video report from the borders of the Gaza Strip, of the incursions carried out by engineering and military vehicles at the border strip inside the Strip.

An Israeli force accompanied the military correspondent of the channel, "Nir Dvori", in an incursion of hundreds of meters into the borders of the Gaza Strip, near the new security obstacle.

A company officer who led the incursion said that these operations are carried out continuously in order to uncover any tunnels that have reached the perimeter of the wall with the aim of using them from Hamas in any confrontation, as well as to detect explosive devices, and mow the agricultural grass that appears in the area to keep it open and exposed to the monitoring and control of the forces. Israeli.

According to the officer, these operations are carried out on a weekly basis in different areas of the border wall.

The report indicated that activists from the "Hamas" movement were standing near the borders and following through the land and through observatories placed on the borders to monitor and follow all the movements of the Israeli army.

The officer said that they are constantly getting acquainted with Hamas activists who monitor the area, pointing out that they are not attacked unless they are attacked.

Israeli Ambassador David Govrin will return to his post at the head of the liaison office in Morocco next month, after he was summoned to his country for interrogation on charges of "sexual assaults" and "embezzlement of funds," an Israeli diplomat announced Tuesday.

"It was decided yesterday that Ambassador Kufrin will return here next month to continue his mission," said the ambassador, who temporarily succeeded him at the head of the office, Shai Cohen, at a press conference in Sale, which is adjacent to the capital, Rabat, without further details.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry had summoned Govrin in September on charges of exploiting women, sexually harassing them, and committing crimes against decency, accusations he denied in a letter prepared by his lawyer, which was seen by Agence France-Presse at the time.

Since then, Cohen has temporarily succeeded him at the head of the Israeli liaison office in Rabat.

This office was opened in early 2021 after the two countries resumed their diplomatic relations, within the framework of a tripartite agreement that also included the United States' recognition of Rabat's sovereignty over Western Sahara, which is disputed with the Polisario Front.

In the press conference he held on the occasion of the anniversary of the founding of the Jewish state, Cohen praised the "profound" development in the relations of the two countries on the various economic, tourism and military levels.

The Israeli diplomat expressed his hope that the two countries would soon reach an agreement for free trade.

In return, Rabat is waiting for the Hebrew state to recognize its sovereignty over Western Sahara, according to what Moroccan media have reported in recent days.

In this regard, Cohen said, "There are negotiations between the foreign ministries of the two countries to consider how progress can be made regarding this issue," adding that "a final decision will be formulated by the two ministries."

After the visit to the kingdom by Israeli Minister of Transport Miri Regev last week, Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana is expected to arrive in Rabat on Wednesday on a "historic" official visit.

This will be the first official visit by a speaker of the Israeli parliament at the invitation of his Moroccan counterpart, Rachid Talbi Elmi, who will meet him on Thursday morning.

This dynamic in the relations of the two countries comes after it was recently clouded by the rise of extreme right-wing currents to power in Israel and the daily violence in the occupied territories.

Morocco "strongly" condemned in early April the Israeli forces' storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque's courtyard, following violent clashes between Palestinian worshipers and the Israeli police.

Rabat regularly affirms its commitment to the Palestinian cause, which still enjoys broad popular support in the Kingdom.

For the second day in a row, the Israeli occupation forces continue their campaign of raids against released prisoners from the occupied territories.

On Wednesday, these forces stormed the house of the freed prisoner, Ibrahim al-Tamish Ali, in the city of Acre, and confiscated a private vehicle from his home.

They also raided the hostel of the freed prisoner Fikri Mansour from Zimmer, confiscated a private vehicle, phones and sums of money, and took him for investigation before releasing him.

Yesterday, they raided the house of editor Karim Younes in Ara, and confiscated a vehicle belonging to his brother.

These raids come on orders from the so-called extremist national security minister, Itamar Ben Gvir, after the enactment of a law in the Knesset allowing the prosecution of prisoners of the interior and occupied Jerusalem who receive funds from the Palestinian Authority.

The Israeli army revealed, on Wednesday, the participation of an American military battalion in a maneuver, the first of its kind, for joint ground forces inside Israel.

According to the Hebrew Channel 7, the deputy commander of the US Central Command, General Gregory Gilo, directly followed the joint maneuver of the ground forces.

Gilo met with the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Israeli Army, Amir Baram, and other officers, and they discussed a joint plan of action to continue efforts of cooperation, coordination, and operations between the two sides.

The Israeli army said that this visit and the American participation is another milestone in the continuation of the process of deepening dialogue, cooperation, strategic and security interests between the two countries, and enhancing regional security and stability. According to the text of his statement.

The Israeli General Security Service, the Shin Bet, announced on Wednesday that it had arrested two Palestinians from the Negev who stormed the Tasalem military base and stole thousands of ammunition.

According to a statement by the Shin Bet, the detainees stole 26,000 ammunition from al-Qaeda's hideout, and all of them were returned after their arrest.

According to the Hebrew website Ynet, the incident took place at dawn yesterday, and the Shin Bet intervened in the investigations until it reached them and arrested them this morning.

The crisis of "judicial reforms" led by Benjamin Netanyahu's government continues to stir up crises inside and outside "Israel".

Last night, US Vice President Kamala Harris touched on the issue during her speech at a ceremony held in Washington, marking the anniversary of "Israel's independence" (the Palestinian Nakba), when she said that the United States would continue to work for the values that underlie its relations with Israel, and on top of that Promote democracy, an independent judicial system, and checks and balances. According to her saying.

Harris spoke these words in the presence of the Chairman of the Constitution Committee, Member of Knesset Simha Rotman, who leads these reforms and defends them strongly, and who entered into an argument with an employee at the embassy who informed him that he was not invited to celebrate, only to find out later that he was invited at the last moments.

Commenting on Harris's statements, Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen said, "If you ask her what bothers her about judicial reforms, she will not know how to tell us about that.. I do not know if she has read the law or not, and my estimate is that she has not."

Cohen's statements sparked a storm and anger, especially from the US ambassador to Israel, Thomas Naides, who defended Harris's words and described them as confirmation of the friendship of Washington and Tel Aviv.

Cohen was forced to issue a statement in both Hebrew and English, in which he said: "I have great respect for our ally the United States, and for Vice President Harris, who is a great friend of Israel... Judicial reforms, an internal Israeli issue in the process of negotiation, and Israel will remain democratic and liberal as it has always been."

In a related context, the Minister of Environmental Protection, Idit Silman, was forced to leave a conference of the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper on climate and the environment due to the protests of the opposition to judicial reforms, amid chanting slogans from the protesters at the conference, "Resign and go home."

The Israeli occupation’s preparations to implement the settlement plan in “E1”, as well as what is happening in Salfit governorate in terms of confiscating more lands for the establishment of more settlements, as well as in various parts of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, carries several goals that no one is ignorant of, and that is just a reminder. Perhaps it will be a move from the Palestinian side, mainly Arab and Islamic, to confront what the occupying state is doing in terms of measures, decisions, acts of killing, oppression, and abuse of sanctities, foremost of which is the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and the Judaization of Jerusalem, which everyone visions as the capital of the Palestinian state, while it is only defended in statements and statements. Which has become neither enriched nor fattened from hunger and the occupying state does not care about it or take it seriously. On the contrary, it sees in it an opportunity for it to continue the policy of annexation and expansion.

One of the most prominent goals of what is happening on the part of the Israeli side is to make the West Bank mere ghettos surrounded by settlements from various sides, and to prevent any communication between them. At the very least, without the establishment of a Palestinian state in the foreseeable future, as long as the internal Palestinian situation is in a state of destructive division that has inflicted the greatest damage on the Palestinian cause, which the occupying state is exploiting to implement its plans and policies in liquidating the conflict and resolving it in its favor and in favor of the settlers.

The aim is also to implement the Israeli decision to increase the number of settlers in the West Bank, to reach, within the years ruled by the more right-wing, racist and extremist government of Benjamin Netanyahu, more than a million settlers, in addition to the ethnic cleansing operations carried out by the occupying state and the herds of settlers in many areas. areas, and the use of carrots and sticks to force citizens to leave their land and country, either voluntarily as a result of the occupation’s violations, procedures and crimes that do not allow them to live, or by force by seizing any favorable international opportunity to deport citizens, as happened in the Nakba and Naksa.

Frankly speaking, the occupying state does not want peace and has declared more than once, but several times, that the West Bank, including Jerusalem, is Jewish, in a clear falsification of history and all the evidence and facts that confirm the Palestinianness and Arabness of Palestine.

In front of this reality that targets our people and our cause, whoever bears the primary responsibility for that is the Palestinian side, which has turned the internal contradiction into a fundamental contradiction, while this contradiction must be with the occupying state and the herds of settlers.
There is also negligence on the part of the Arab and Islamic countries, especially the countries that establish normalization and “peace” relations with the occupying state, which do not pay any attention to these agreements. On the contrary, they practice their crimes against our people in front of these countries, which target the young before the old. Muhammad Haitham Al-Tamimi, who is two and a half years old, is nothing but evidence of the crimes committed by the occupying state.

The time has come for an effective Palestinian, Arab and Islamic movement to repel the occupation attacks and support the steadfastness of citizens in the face of what the occupation forces and herds of settlers are doing.

The West Bank is on its way to annexation, especially the Jordan Valley, Salfit, and the “E1” region, and everyone must assume their national and national responsibilities, because history will not be merciful to anyone who fails to play his national role.

Salfit Governorate, if matters were not really "resolved" in favor of the illegal colonial settlement that the occupying state has built in the Palestinian territories since its occupation, whose fifty-sixth anniversary comes in what is known as the June setback, as the settlement projects extend since 1968 on the lands of the governorate until today, and when they are completed Using the term Hasmet, this does not mean, of course, recognition of the policy of the occupation fait accompli at all or explaining the possibility of coexistence with this reality.

Returning to this issue, it can be said that Salfit, whose land was ravaged by the settlement monster, is the only governorate in which the number of settlers exceeds the number of residents. Salfit, for those who do not know, is also the only governorate in which the number of settlements exceeds the number of Palestinian villages, 21 villages and 24 settlements. This is in addition to the fact that it includes The largest or one of the largest industrial clusters in the West Bank, called the Burkan Industrial Zone, which includes dozens of factories that were illegally transferred from the inside for the benefit of an illegal project in the heart of the West Bank, and the pollution it spreads to the environment and the land, the destruction of crops and fields, and the closure of vast areas of what remains of its lands For security, military, or other reasons, and also there is the Wadi Qana area that is being seized under the name of a natural reserve, in addition to the terminology of the Absentee Property Law, or the so-called princely lands, or state lands, all of which have been approved by laws that serve and nourish the actual, practical, direct application of plundering the land and tightening the grip on it. And Salfit for those who do not know in the same context is located on one of the most important water basins that represent an important aspiration for the occupation, in addition to its geographical position on a site overlooking the occupied interior regions, which makes it of strategic importance and naturally puts it in the eye of sensitive ambitions for the occupation.

The governorate witnessed the beginnings of the settlement project immediately after the occupation, leading to the start of the establishment of the Ariel settlement, which is one of the settlement blocs (cities) that includes all the elements of the main cities within the Green Line. It has a university and service facilities comparable to Tel Aviv or other cities. Ariel is described as the backyard of Tel Aviv. And the foundation stone for it was laid by the Minister of the Occupation Army at the time, Ariel Sharon, at the end of the seventies of the last century, and it was named after him, and from this we infer what makes no place for the controversy the importance that reflects the ideological orientations of what is happening in the Palestinian territories, which do not differ except in some formal issues, but the root of the settlement project is It is based on the expulsion of the Arabs and the purification of the country from its owners, and the practice of all forms of uprooting by all means to seize the land. I have only provided a direct example of this project and the racist tendencies based on the negation of the other, and the endeavor to end the existence of the Palestinian people as a whole.

Yesterday, just a few days ago, a new old plan was announced to seize thousands of dunams of Salfit land, which includes more than 10 thousand dunams, most of which are agricultural lands. settlement units, in addition to roads linking settlements and a cemetery, a new industrial zone, water and electricity networks, and other services, in addition to the destructive effects of trees, crops, and lands. Movement and movement, the settlement in Salfit is an important focal point in the project being implemented. If we look at an area known as the Za’tara checkpoint and head west, the expansion and settlement continues without interruption in a broad and wide strip, devouring tens of thousands of dunams, reaching the city of Ras al-Ain, Malbis and Tel Aviv in a continuous line, and we do not need much. It is smart if we set out from the same area to the east, i.e. from the Zatara checkpoint, we would reach the Jordan Valley with a similar strip, and we all also know the great importance of the Jordan Valley, which is the food basket for the West Bank. In other words, what is happening in Salfit bisects the West Bank into two completely separate parts, which means more accurately that the future Palestinian state In the West Bank, it has become in the news "was" an actual end to the possibility of the establishment of an independent state with geographical contiguity, the seizure of natural resources, huge reserves and water, the cutting of the land and its conversion into ghettos, and the imposition of a fait accompli so that the picture according to the plan can bear only two solutions, the solution of annexation to the occupying state, and there was talk Publicly about it with the formation of the current occupation government with the imposition of racist measures on the population, not granting them identity and many similar measures. People with the difficulty of continuing to live, as there is no space for farms, and there are no elements of a life worthy of humans to search for other outlets. This is the essence of the plan that is underway with the mentality of the occupier, who is trying ferociously to deny the narrative, but rather he is fighting over the simplest things. Take, for example, the water springs in the province, really, no one can reach them The spread of wild wild boars that prevent farmers from reaching their land, and Salfit was the first to release pigs there. Today, the journey to reach the olive field has become fraught with danger in every sense of the word, not to mention the release of settlers’ hands, preventing people from picking olives and practicing all forms of infringement on Palestinian rights. A small omen of what is happening in the province of Zaytoun, as you know.

This is a condensed summary of the reality of the daily situation. We list it not out of desperation or slapping the cheeks, and not in order to make this image with all its pretext to deal with what is happening in terms of a painful and dangerous reality. We have to work today before tomorrow with real and serious will and endeavors within the margins of what is available nationally and popularly to mobilize all energies and capabilities for the success of the confrontation campaigns in Salfit. The valleys, but Salfit is bleeding and a reality is being established in it that would resolve the conflict, and no one is deceived or deceived by the false terminology that you are trying to spread and talk about (appropriation for the public good) according to the military order to seize the lands of the towns of Bruqin and Sarata west of Salfit, 42 dunums announced yesterday, which is an extension For the same scheme that was unveiled a few days ago to confiscate tens of thousands of dunums in the governorate. The Zionist project is (appropriation for the public interest), but appropriation of the land at the expense of its residents and owners who inherited it. .

If there is no effective, responsible and serious movement in the face of what is happening in Salfit these days at all levels, then the alternative is to implement the occupation law in it and formalize annexation and expansion, and take control of it. Today, through the cry and appeal of the people of Salfit, it is required to save the governorate before it drowns in the sea of ​​settlement. Sweeping and providing it with the elements of steadfastness, survival, and work with the will of everyone to confront this dangerous and destructive project. Salfit is crying out for help, groaning under the weight of annexation and Judaization. Why isn't a decision taken to stop the relationship with the government of the extreme right in terms of stopping settlements in Salfit and the recent plans in it!!! And why does the government not hold its next meeting in Salfit with the general secretaries of all the factions and forces, and let it be a popular conference that reflects the will to stick to the land and national rights, addresses people’s issues, and works to meet the basics and conditions of life!! Work is required without delay and without slowing down.
