OIC: Israeli Attacks Reach 2,637 Crimes in Week
Mohamed Mandour
The Israeli occupation forces committed mass crimes in the West Bank. The blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque was subjected to daily raids by settlers and Israeli occupation police, who also deported three Palestinians from the mosque, including two journalists.
Monitoring Israeli crimes between March 25 and 31, 2025, the OIC Media Observatory on Israeli Crimes against Palestinians documented 2,637 crimes across various Palestinian areas.
Thousands of Palestinians on their way to Al-Aqsa to commemorate Laylat al-Qadr were prevented from entering the mosque, and strict restrictions were imposed on the entry of worshippers coming from other West Bank governorates to Al-Quds to perform the fourth Friday prayers of the holy month of Ramadan at Al-Aqsa
In the city of Hebron, the occupation authorities refused to hand over the Ibrahimi Mosque to the Palestinian Waqf Administration, as is customary for the commemoration of Laylat al-Qadr and on the occasion of Eid al-Fitr. Armed settlers also attacked worshippers at the Sheikh Mosque in the town of Beit Furik in Nablus, and the occupation forces fired sound bombs and tear gas at the worshippers.
The number of settler attacks on Palestinian towns and villages reached 38 in one week. In some cases, foreign peace activists confronted these attacks, but were subsequently attacked in the Farisiya area of Tubas, which was subjected to numerous attacks during this period.
Settlers cut down 40 olive trees in the village of Suwayya in Nablus. They also grazed their livestock in the village of Al-Mughayyir in Ramallah, the Al-Burj area, and the Al-Mita area in Tubas. They assaulted a shepherd in the northern Jordan Valley in Tubas, killing two heads of cattle. They also stole 50 heads of sheep from the town of Kafr ad-Dik in Salfit, and 9 heads of camels from the village of al-Rashayda. They also attempted to steal several heads of sheep from the village of al-Minya in Bethlehem. Settlers in the 'Negohot' settlement, north of the village of Fuqayqis in Hebron, pumped sewage into the village's agricultural lands.
Regarding attacks on children in the West Bank, Israeli forces arrested 11 Palestinian children from the villages of Hizma in Al-Quds, Bethlehem, Jenin, Ramallah, Jericho, and the town of Beit Furik in Nablus. Settlers assaulted two children, wounding them and causing bruises in Masafer Yatta. Moreover, occupation forces injured three children in the village of Shuqba in Ramallah and the towns of Beita and Beit Furik in Nablus.
The total number of Palestinians arrested by occupation forces in the West Bank between March 25 and 31, 2025, reached 204 detainees of various age groups.
In the same context, occupation forces raided the Ein Qiniya Elementary School, terrorizing and threatening children, warning them against throwing stones during their raid on the village of Ein Qiniya in Ramallah. They also broke down the door of the school in the village of Qarawat Bani Zeid, raiding it, and terrorizing students there.

Egypt Highlights Path to Sustainable Peace in Africa at Oslo Forum
Taarek Refaat Egypt's Minister of Foreign Affairs and Immigration Badr Abdel Ati participated on Wednesday in a high-level session on achieving peace in Africa, held as part of the annual Oslo Forum, a key platform for international dialogue on conflict mediation and peacebuilding. During the session, Abdel Ati underscored Egypt's central role in promoting security and stability across the African continent, reaffirming Cairo's long-standing commitment to supporting the African Union (AU) as the principal framework for advancing peace and development in African states. Addressing an audience of diplomats, mediators, and policymakers, the minister discussed the complex, interlinked challenges facing Africa — including conflict, poverty, and underdevelopment. He emphasized the need for a comprehensive approach that incorporates social, economic, and developmental strategies to build lasting peace. 'African solutions must be holistic,' he said, 'integrating the economic drivers of conflict with long-term development planning, and grounded in the realities of each country.' Abdel Ati also highlighted the continent's significant potential, citing its dynamic youth population and expansive investment opportunities, particularly in infrastructure. He called for greater international cooperation to harness these assets in ways that promote sustainable growth and integration across African nations. In his concluding remarks, the minister stressed that while short-term interventions are important, Africa requires a long-term vision rooted in African leadership, equitable global partnerships, and development strategies that align with the continent's unique needs and aspirations. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean

OPEN// Foreign ministry stresses need to comply with Gaza border visit regulations
CAIRO, June 11 (MENA) - Egypt has welcomed the official and popular international and regional positions supporting Palestinian rights and rejecting the blockade, starvation tactics, and systematic and flagrant Israeli violations against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip. In a statement on Wednesday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Emigration and Egyptian Expatriates affirmed that Egypt continues to work at all levels to end the aggression on Gaza and to bring an end to the humanitarian catastrophe impacting more than two million Palestinians. In this context and in light of recent requests and inquiries regarding visits by foreign delegations to the border areas adjacent to Gaza, especially Arish City and Rafah border crossing, Egypt stresses the necessity of obtaining prior approvals to conduct such visits, the ministry said. The only acceptable way for Egyptian authorities to consider these requests is by adhering to the regulatory framework and procedures established since the start of the war on Gaza, according to the statement. This includes submitting official requests to Egyptian embassies abroad, or through requests submitted by foreign embassies in Cairo or representatives of organizations to the foreign ministry, it said. Numerous visits have already been arranged for foreign delegations either representing governmental bodies or non-governmental human rights organizations, the ministry said. 'Egypt underlines the importance of adhering to these established regulations to ensure the safety of visiting delegations given the sensitive and volatile nature of the border area since the beginning of the Gaza crisis.' 'In this regard, Egypt reaffirms that no requests will be considered nor any invitations will be responded to if they fall outside the approved regulatory framework and established mechanisms,' the statement said. 'Egypt also underlines the importance that all foreign nationals must comply with Egyptian laws and entry regulations, including obtaining the necessary visas or pre-approved permits. 'Finally, Egypt reiterates its unwavering stance in support of the steadfastness of the Palestinian people on their land and its rejection of Israel's blatant violations of international law and international humanitarian law. 'It further stresses the importance of exerting pressure on Israel to lift the blockade on Gaza and to allow humanitarian access through all Israeli-controlled crossings with the Strip.'
