Palestinian resistance brands Yasser Abu Shabab traitor
The statement came after Hebrew media cited an interview with Abu Shabab in which he allegedly openly admitted, 'We cooperate with the Israeli army,' and declared his goal to 'eradicate Hamas,' vowing to continue fighting even if a ceasefire is reached. He also claimed that 'Hamas is struggling and is in its final stages.'
The resistance factions described Abu Shabab's group as 'tools in the hands of the occupier' and 'stripped of national identity.' They warned that the blood of these traitors is legitimate and pledged to deal with them harshly, cautioning others who follow their path that they 'will end up like their predecessors in the dustbins of history.'
The statement also praised Palestinian clans and families in Gaza for refusing to support any collaborators, emphasizing respect for families while holding individuals accountable for their betrayal.

Rafah's ‘humanitarian city': Negotiating tactic or blueprint for post-ceasefire?
A contentious 'Israeli' proposal to establish a "humanitarian city" in southern Gaza, on the ruins of Rafah, is sparking fierce debate. Critics are questioning whether this initiative, unveiled by 'Israeli' Defense Minister Israel Katz, is a post-ceasefire plan or a strategic maneuver to tilt ongoing negotiations in their favor. The plan has drawn widespread condemnation from international bodies, human rights organizations, and key regional players, raising serious alarms about its implications for Gaza's future and regional stability, particularly for Egypt. Defense Minister Katz outlined the plan earlier this week, stating that the proposed "humanitarian city" would initially house around 600,000 displaced Palestinians currently in the al-Mawasi area. These individuals would undergo strict security screenings and be confined to the zone, with no permission to leave. Ultimately, Katz suggested, all of Gaza's over two million residents would be concentrated there. He also committed to implementing a plan, first proposed by President Donald Trump, to facilitate the "voluntary migration" of Palestinians from Gaza to other countries. This concept, enthusiastically supported by 'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, lacks any public commitment from other nations. According to 'Israeli' media, Katz indicated that international bodies, not the 'Israeli' military, would manage the new zone, although the 'Israeli' army would secure it. This setup mirrors the controversial aid distribution model of the US- and 'Israel'-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). The feasibility of international participation remains dubious, as most organizations have shunned the GHF due to serious concerns over neutrality and the safety of Palestinian residents; hundreds have been killed attempting to access GHF aid sites. The proposal has ignited a firestorm of criticism. UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy unequivocally rejected the plan, calling it a contradiction to ceasefire efforts and not a "serious context" for aid delivery. Hamas condemned the plan as an attempt at "ethnic cleansing," affirming the Palestinian people's steadfast refusal of forced displacement. Human rights lawyer Michael Sfard described Katz's plan as a precursor to forcible deportation, classifying both as war crimes. He argued that any departure from Gaza under such conditions could not be considered voluntary, as "Israel imposes coercive measures on them that make their lives in Gaza impossible." Key regional players, including the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, have also firmly rejected the forced displacement of Palestinians. UAE diplomat Lana Nusseibeh stated, "The United Arab Emirates has publicly and unequivocally rejected the forced displacement of Palestinians." Qatar's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Majid al-Ansari, similarly affirmed, "We are against any forced displacement of Palestinians, or any deportation of Palestinians outside their lands." This "humanitarian city" proposal follows a series of failed 'Israeli' displacement strategies since the war began in October 2023, including plans to empty northern Gaza and divide the strip into isolated "bubbles." UNRWA, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, condemned the latest plan as "an insult to the very notion of humanity," warning it would transform Gaza into "the most overcrowded, controlled open-air prison in the world." UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini stressed that a permanent ceasefire, hostage release, safe aid delivery, and a genuine commitment to a two-state solution are the only viable paths forward.

Two Palestinians killed, dozens injured in West Bank Sinjil settler assaults
Two Palestinians were found dead Friday after violent attacks by 'Israeli' settlers in the village of Sinjel, north of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, amid escalating tensions in the area. According to a correspondent for Roya News, the bodies of the two victims, including Muhammad Shalabi from the nearby village of Al-Mazra'a Al-Sharqiya, were discovered hours after they went missing during the brutal assaults by settlers. Local sources reported that both victims suffered severe beatings across their bodies. Muhammad Shalabi was one of the two Palestinians who died as a result of these attacks, which are intensifying the suffering of local residents. In addition to the fatalities, around 40 others were injured during the settler assaults on Sinjel, with many victims receiving treatment for head wounds and other injuries. Palestinian Red Crescent teams reported difficulties reaching some of the wounded, as settler groups blocked medical crews from accessing young men trapped in the nearby forests. The 'Israeli' army announced the deployment of two additional battalions to the West Bank in response to the rising violence. In response, Hamas condemned the settler attacks on Sinjel as a 'criminal assault,' viewing it as confirmation of the Israeli Occupation's ongoing policy of dispossession and aggression against Palestinians. The movement called on Palestinians across the West Bank to rise up in protest and defend their communities against further settler violence. The day also saw a spike in settler and 'Israeli' army attacks in several other West Bank areas, including the village of Al-Minya east of Bethlehem. There, settlers, backed by Israeli forces, assaulted residents and fired tear gas, causing dozens of cases of suffocation, including among women and children. Medical sources reported a three-year-old girl sustained a head injury from a direct settler attack. In Masafir Yatta, south of Hebron, settlers attacked Palestinian homes and assaulted residents, resulting in injuries to two young men who were taken for medical treatment, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent. The surge in settler violence and military operations raises concerns among human rights groups about deteriorating security conditions and the increasing vulnerability of Palestinian civilians across the occupied territories.

'Israel' conducts raid on cemetery, says Gaza's Awqaf Ministry
The Ministry of Religious Endowments (Awqaf) in Gaza has condemned what it described as a "horrific crime" committed by 'Israeli' forces at dawn on Thursday, after they stormed the Turkish Cemetery in the Al-Mawasi area west of Khan Younis, southern Gaza, using tanks and bulldozers. In a statement, the ministry said 'Israeli' forces dug up graves, desecrated the site, and stole the remains of the dead, calling it a barbaric and criminal act that violates all religious, humanitarian, and international norms. The ministry stated that the assault on the cemetery represents a blatant attack on the sanctity of burial grounds and a disregard for human dignity even after death, reflecting what it called a "deep moral and humanitarian void in Israel's actions." The raid reportedly coincided with the demolition of nearby displacement camps, displacing hundreds of Palestinian families who had sought refuge there from the ongoing war. 'This crime only adds to the suffering of civilians in Gaza,' the statement read, noting that Palestinians in the Strip have endured catastrophic humanitarian conditions amid a war that has lasted over 21 months. The ministry further revealed that around 40 of Gaza's 60 cemeteries have been damaged or destroyed during the ongoing 'Israeli' military campaign. The statement concluded by urging international legal and human rights organizations, including the United Nations, to launch an urgent investigation into the incident. It also called on the international community to assume its humanitarian and moral responsibilities, to act immediately to stop repeated violations against the Palestinian people, and to hold 'Israel' accountable for its crimes, against both the living and the dead, and to protect religious and cultural sites in Palestine.
