🇵🇸 UN urges Israel to investigate allegations its army 'executed' 11 unarmed Palestinians in Gaza City

Eyewitnesses say Israeli Forces killed 11 unarmed men in front of their families, before rounding up the women and children and attacking them.

The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OHCHR OPT) has warned that the alleged assault on Tuesday on homes in Gaza City could constitute a war crime.
It is calling for an independent investigation into the allegations.

Al Jazeera spoke to several eyewitnesses.

🇵🇸 Eyewitness accounts: ‘The Israeli soldiers murdered Palestinian men in cold blood’

They searched us and forced the women to remove their headscarves. They brought the young men down, who were naked, and executed them one by one.”

Eyewitnesses told Al Jazeera on Wednesday that Israeli forces carried out field executions against some residents of the Anan building on Al-Jalaa Street in Gaza. This occurred after the forces stormed the building and trapped the women and children in rooms inside.

One eyewitness recounted how a man was shot after he raised his hands in the air and said he was a civilian, while another described Israeli soldiers murdering Palestinian men in “cold blood” in front of their families after they were stripped.

🇵🇸 Urinating on Prisoners: Why Humiliation is Functional in Israel’s War on Palestinians | Mint Press

Zionist militias, using advanced Western arms, conquered historic Palestine in 1947-48, they expressed their victory through the deliberate humiliation of Palestinians.

Much of that humiliation targeted women, in particular, knowing how the dishonor of Palestinian females represents, according to Arab culture, a sense of dishonor to the whole community.

This strategy remains in use to this day.When scores of Palestinian women were released following prisoner exchanges between the Palestinian Resistance and Israel, starting on November 24, there was very little room to hide the facts.

Unlike the 75-year-ago Palestinian community, this current generation no longer internalizes Israel’s intentional humiliation of women and men alike, as if an act of collective dishonor.

🇵🇸 ICJ hearing against Israel: All you need to know about South Africa's case in the Hague

In an unprecedented first, South Africa is taking Israel to the International Court of Justice for violating the Genocide Convention in its unrelenting bombardment of Gaza since 7 October 2023. This is the first time Israel - a nation state built as a sanctuary for Jews who have historically faced anti-Semitism, pogroms, and genocide - will take the stand to defend itself against accusations of genocide. In a meticulously written 84-page document, South Africa has made a strong case for why it believes Israel has committed genocide against the Palestinians.

Ahead of the first part of the case against Israel which will begin on January 11, here’s what you need to know.

🇵🇸 Israel not only prevents entry of aid into Gaza, but also kills those who try to receive it

The Israeli army is not only starving Palestinians in the northern Gaza Valley, but has also killed dozens of individuals who tried to receive the meagre aid that did arrive there, perpetuating the genocide that Israel has been committing against the people of the Gaza Strip since 7 October 2023, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said in a statement on Tuesday.

Euro-Med Monitor has documented shocking testimonies of the Israeli army killing and injuring dozens of Palestinians on Thursday 11 January 2024 on Al-Rashid Street, in the west of Gaza City, who were trying to receive humanitarian aid. The human rights organisation demanded that the involved United Nations agencies be held accountable for their failure to guarantee suitable channels for providing the populace with humanitarian aid.

🇵🇸 ‘It’s Bisan From Gaza, And People Were Tortured At The Indonesian Hospital’ | AJ+

Video journalist Bisan Owda brings us exclusive eyewitness testimonies from survivors she spoke to in December who described the Israeli army’s torture and killing of wounded patients and doctors at the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza.

One of northern Gaza’s largest hospitals, the facility was under siege for days in November and may never open again. While some patients in critical condition were allowed to evacuate the hospital, survivors recall torture even on the evacuation route. Israel has targeted more than 150 health care facilities in Gaza since Oct 7. The targeting of hospitals is a violation of international humanitarian law.

🇵🇸 Israel has Failed to Achieve All of Its Objectives in Gaza | Palestine Chronicle –

The Israeli military’s high command has raised doubts about the feasibility of Israeli objectives in Gaza, in view of “Israel’s limited progress in dismantling Hamas”, the New York Times reported on Saturday. 

The report further details the failure of the Israeli operations on the ground in Gaza. 
One of the lofty goals set by the Israeli army was the complete destruction of the tunnel network. However, it seems that it did not succeed in doing so.

Arab military analysts are saying that Hamas has managed to regroup in northern Gaza, reorganizing 12 different brigades that are now engaged in fighting on all fronts :‘No Military Victory in Gaza’ - Resistance Roundup - Day 106

Why the Guardian’s ‘Hamas mass rape’ story doesn’t pass the sniff test | Jonathan Cook - Blog

How is it that #journalists are not pausing to question the outrageous improbability of so many of the evidence-poor Hamas rape stories being advanced?

The Guardian has just published the latest in the western media’s endless cycle of stories claiming Hamas committed “systematic, mass rape” on October 7. Its article is headlined: “Evidence points to systematic use of rape and sexual violence by Hamas in 7 October attacks”.

The biggest problem with these stories isn’t just the continuing absence of any meaningful evidence for “systematic” rape; or Israel’s long track record of lying to justify state terrorism; or Israel’s refusal to cooperate with independent investigators; or the racist, anti-Arab tropes that pass for sophisticated analysis in western circles.

🇵🇸 Woman in Gaza tortured and separated from children for 54 days by Israeli forces

Beaten, buried alive and strip-searched by Israeli forces.

Hadeel Yousef Issa al-Dahdouh, from Gaza, describes her treatment during 54 days of Israeli detention, interrogation and torture. Hadeel says Israeli forces took her away from her two young sons – a four-year-old and a breastfeeding nine-month-old.

She says she was put on the back of a military truck with only male detainees. She was then taken to several detention camps inside and outside Gaza and interrogated about the 7 October attack on southern Israel and beaten by Israeli soldiers.

The soldiers told her she would be taken for half an hour, but Hadeel says she was detained for 54 days and away from her children for 80 days.
