INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
has a slim majority in the Israeli Knesset, has proposed a plan to divide the al-Aqsa Mosque compound in occupied al-Quds between Jewish
settlers and Muslims, sparking warnings by the Palestinian resistance.There has been long-held suspicion by Palestinians and the wider
with a Hebrew-language newspaper, where he outlined a plan that would divide the large complex, in which Muslims would be subjected to the
southern end that contains the al-Aqsa Mosque.All the remaining compound, including the central and northern parts, would be reserved for
role as custodians of both the Muslim and Christian holy places in the occupied Palestinian city of al-Quds be replaced with Israeli
culture and their existence.Over the past years, the al-Aqsa Mosque compound has seen a sharp rise in Israeli settlers storming the compound
and performing rituals there in violation of the status quo.That has sparked clashes between Palestinian worshippers and witnessed Israeli
occupied Palestinian territories targeting critical Israeli infrastructure facilities
Israel responded by indiscriminately bombing the besieged coastal enclave, killing dozens of women and children.Israel's occupation of the
holy city of al-Quds itself is not recognized by the United Nations, which rejects the grabbing of land through war
Despite this, the world body has done little to defend the oppressed Palestinian people living there.Halevi also seeks to change the access
procedures for Israeli settlers storming al-Aqsa, by demanding that settlers be allowed to enter the complex through all the gates, rather
than only through the southwestern Moroccan Gate, which is the only gate out of the mosque's 15 entry points under the full control of
the first time settlers entered the courtyards of the holy site from the gate since Israel waged another war against the Palestinians and
occupied al-Quds in 1967.The Palestinian resistance factions have warned that any plan to divide al-Aqsa Mosque would be a declaration of
war and that Israel would face repercussions for the implementation of any such move.According to the Palestinian Information Center, the
sounds the alarm that the whole nation should fulfill their responsibilities towards this occupation plan against Al-Quds and Al-Aqsa
surroundings, as well as to increase the level of retaliatory operations and confrontation, in order to stand up against the aggression of
underscored the importance that the retaliatory operations be expanded to the occupied Palestinian territories of 1948.Meanwhile, Israel has
raided Ramallah in the occupied West Bank to demolish a home of a Palestinian inmate who had carried out a retaliatory operation against
Israeli settlers
their homes to protest the attack
The Israeli army responded by attacking the protesters with live fire, rubber bullets and a wave of tear gas as well as targeting several
journalists, who have sustained injuries.According to the Palestinian health ministry, one Palestinian has been killed, at least 35 others
have been wounded, including at least 20 by live bullets
Two people also suffered serious abdominal wounds while a third was hit by a rubber bullet which penetrated his skull
Israel has been accused of forcefully targeting the journalists to prevent the atrocity from being publicized.While Israeli raids on cities,
towns and villages in the occupied West Bank have now become an everyday occurrence, the all-night raid in Ramallah, where the headquarters
of the Palestinian Authority government in the occupied West Bank is located is something rare
Yet it highlights the limits the new Israeli cabinet is willing to cross.Israel routinely destroys the homes of those it suspects of
carrying out retaliatory operations against settlers
The UN views this policy as collective punishment, which is illegal under international humanitarian law.The regime eventually demolished
the home of the Palestinian prisoner Eslam Froukh."What the occupation authorities did was a heinous crime," Palestinian Prime Minister
Mohammad Shtayyeh has been cited as saying by the official WAFA news agency
"It turned an entire family overnight into a homeless family."The Palestinian Foreign Minister has also condemned the latest house
Palestinian people.This comes as reports have surfaced that newly formed armed resistance in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin fought off
an Israeli military convoy from entering the city.Reports suggest the regime had carefully planned the operation in a bid to arrest several
resistance figures by flying surveillance aircrafts for several days before kickstarting the offensive on Friday morning.Before the Israeli
convoy could enter the soil of Jenin, it was faced with a heavy armed resistance that forced it to halt its operation and withdraw,
signaling a new strength of power for the youthful Palestinian resistance in the occupied West Bank
