We’re still seeing more of the surviving family members who rushed to the hospital to check for their children and check for their family members to see if they were among the casualties or not. Some of them are still missing. We saw one mother going through the bodies, just looking for anything that could lead to the body of her son. She said there is a birthmark – that she’s going to continue to search. Another person was looking for the body of his wife, who happened to be at that evacuation centre when it was targeted. She was given an appointment to go pick up formula milk for her newly born child that happened to be distributed at this evacuation centre. She was in the morgue of Al-Aqsa Hospital.

**On october 9**, On Wednesday, Israeli special forces assassinated four Palestinian young men, and injured one, after targeting their vehicle in the northern West Bank city of Nablus. ## Perfidy to lead an extrajudicial execution [Media sources](https://imemc.org/article/undercover-israeli-forces-assassinate-four-palestinians-in-nablus/) said that an undercover Israeli unit (Musta’ribeen) infiltrated the eastern area of Nablus city, on Wednesday afternoon, and fired many live rounds at a vehicle, executing all four men inside.The Arab 48 News website quoted witnesses who said that *“the sounds of heavy gunfire were heard near the eastern market in Nablus, and then soldiers were seen who were apparently riding in a civilian vehicle and wearing civilian clothes, firing at a Palestinian civilian vehicle from all sides.”* The army sent several military reinforcements to Nablus city from Jerusalem Street, to facilitate the special forces’ withdrawal from Faisal Street. **Perfidy **is specifically prohibited under the 1977 Protocol I Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949, which states 1. It is prohibited to kill, injure or capture an adversary by resort to perfidy. Acts inviting the confidence of an adversary to lead him to believe that he is entitled to, or is obliged to accord, protection under the rules of international law applicable in armed conflict, with intent to betray that confidence, shall constitute perfidy. The following acts are examples of perfidy: (...) (c) The feigning of civilian, non-combatant status. “Perfidy involves the killing or injury of an adversary in a manner that first invites but then betrays their confidence in a protection offered by the law of armed conflict,” says Sari. “In the present case, feigning to be medical personnel or civilians, both of whom enjoy protections under the law [would be perfidious].” Israel is one of the few countries (and the U.S. is another) that has not ratified Additional Protocol I to the Geneva Conventions, a 1977 amendment that specifically bans perfidy. However, perfidy is also illegal under customary international law. Sari points out that the Israeli Supreme Court has accepted that Israel is bound by customary international law. **Sources :** [1](https://theintercept.com/2024/01/31/israel-west-bank-hospital-raid/), [2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfidy#cite_note-10) ## Hamas statement It quoted the Islamic Resistance movement Hamas, who called the Israeli assassination operation, a *“heinous Zionist crime added to the occupation’s record of terrorism,”* affirming that *“the resistance in Nablus and all the governorates of the West Bank will remain unbreakable” despite “the brutality of the occupation.”* ## Casualties : The Palestinian Health Ministry identified the slain men as - Issam Mohammad Suleiman Salaj, 30 - Abdul Halim Mohammad Nasser, 43 - Salim Izz al-Din Mahmoud Abu Saada, 40 - Naim Mohammad Raji Abdul Hadi, 32. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said their ambulance crews transported the bodies of the slain men to the Rafidia Governmental Hospital in Nablus, in addition to a young man who sustained injuries to the head and chest as a result of shrapnel from live rounds.

On October 9, in the afternoon, the IDF carried out three separate attacks targeting different journalist teams during their live coverage of the Israeli assault on North Gaza. ## Abu Sharkh area: Mohammed Al-Tanani murdered & Tamer Lubbad injured Palestinian photojournalist Mohammed Al-Tanani was killed by Israeli snipers while reporting on the Israeli ground invasion of the Jabalia camp. His colleague Tamer Lubbad, also a correspondent for Al-Aqsa TV, was injured. On the same day, the IDF completely closed off all access to and from Jabalia and fired at anyone attempting to leave. Journalists documenting the scenes started referring to the Abu Sharkh roundabout as the "Death Intersection/Roundabout." Al-Tanani’s body was retrieved despite Israeli occupation forces targeting the rescue teams. Palestinian Red Crescent crews transported the casualties to Al-Ahli Hospital. The moment Al-Aqsa TV cameraman Mohammed Al-Tanani was targeted.

The injury made him paraplegic as confirmed by his firend and colleague [Anas Al-Sharif](https://x.com/AnasAlSharif0/status/1844404279672447040):*"Today, I stand next to Fadi while he is in a coma, after he had been standing in front of me and surrounding me from all sides, so that the picture was conveyed with the utmost professionalism. Today, unfortunately, doctors informed us that Fadi has become permanently paralyzed."* - Testimony of journalist Islam Badr rushing to evacuate Fadi: "Those were difficult moments. We were in an area that was not sbuject to evacuation orders and far from clashes, wearing our press attire. However, Israelis shot at us directly, twice, to ensure we were hit and unfortunately, they succeeded. The army didn’t stop firing even after Fadi fell. I went back to get him, and unfortunately, he was unconscious."*  Islam shared more details in his [report](https://x.com/AlarabyTV/status/1844037221915209741) Anas al-Sharif and Hossam Shabat, who were also on the scene testified that the group of journalists worked in a safe place, far from any dangerous places and clashes when they were targeted. Hossam Shabat "*I took this [photo](https://x.com/HossamShabat/status/1844565786259583330) of Fadi moments before he was shot and he was directly targeted. He told me not to take risks and not to advance into the dangerous zone, but Fadi was targeted in the zone which was a thousand meters from danger. It is clear from this that the attacks were aimed at journalists."* [Testimony of Anas Al-Sharif](https://x.com/AnasAlSharif0/status/1844046408787136717) (Al Jazeera Corespondant) *"The doctor told me a short while ago that my brother and beloved Fadi Al-Wahidi's health condition is very serious and he needs urgent surgery. The X-ray image that was just taken showed a rupture in the cervical vertebrae of the spine… …and the operation may also result in hemiplegia that may affect our colleague Fadi, God forbid.

[His last social media post](https://x.com/cheriblossom__/status/1844188093911580838) reads: *"We will remain steadfast, we will not leave except to heaven #North Gaza."* ## Updates on Fadi Al-Wahidi's conditions: On October 11, Fadi awoke from his coma, but Israel would continue denying global appeals to allow him to leave the Gaza Strip for medical treatment. In protest his mother afflicted with cancer entered a hunger strike on November 16, 2024, and suffered health complications shortly after. Fadi continued sharing desperate appeals until, **after 122 days Israel finally allowed him to leave Gaza for treatment** on February 8, 2025, three weeks into the ceasefire Mid March 2025, Fadi was receiving treatment in Qatar

Fawwar camp is the southernmost camp in the West Bank, located approximately eight kilometres south of Hebron. The population in Fawwar camp has more than tripled since its establishment. The Israeli settlement of Beit Haggay and an Israeli military camp are located only a few kilometres away from Fawwar camp. An Israeli military watchtower is situated at the entrance of the camp. As a consequence, incursions, camp closures and clashes between young camp residents and the Israeli military are current. Residents in Fawwar camp previously depended almost entirely on access to Israel for employment opportunities. The current inaccessibility of the Israeli labour market has thus severely affected employment levels and the economic situation in the camp, contributing to the camp’s high levels of unemployment and poverty.

## Various NGO investigations **On October 25, 2023,** **the *Association for Civil Rights in Israel, HaMoked, Adalah, Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, and the Public Committee Against Torture in Israel*** petitioned Israel’s High Court of Justice (HCJ) to stop the violation of the basic rights of Palestinian “security” prisoners who had been arrested and tried before the war. The organizations argued that the emergency policy in this matter has been established contrary to the Prison Ordinance, and causes severe and ongoing harm to the health and minimal living conditions of the prisoners, which the State in obligated to provide. In the petition, the organizations address - the prolonged denial of the prisoners’ right to talk with their attorneys, - the hours-long disconnection of electricity and water supplies, - the denial of access to medical treatment and more; this, alongside reports of severe violence. The organizations stated that this policy which amounts to cruel punishment, has been implemented with complete lack of transparency, pursuant to orders issued in obscurity, without making public the aims and contents of this policy. In the petition, the organizations claimed that protection of prisoners’ rights and the prevention of arbitrary denial of rights, also and especially in times of war, is a vital condition for the preservation of a civilized society, which also protects the rights of those who have transgressed against it. [Source ](https://hamoked.org/document.php?dID=Updates2379) **On November 23, 2023,** the High Court of Justice dismissed a petition by **HaMoked and human rights groups** to reverse harsh conditions imposed on Palestinian security prisoners after the outbreak of war. The petition was rejected without a hearing, leaving prisoners without judicial protection of their rights. **Severe Prison Conditions:** - Prisoners face overcrowding, - limited water, - restricted access to daily yard time and showers, - inadequate food, - bans on purchasing essential items, - Many prisoners have lost 20–40 kilograms due to insufficient food, - Contact with family, lawyers, and external entities (e.g., ICRC) is severely restricted. - Courts dismissed numerous prisoner petitions without thorough review, often citing procedural grounds. Some cases were dismissed due to prisoner transfers or releases, requiring new petitions for similar conditions in other facilities. State Promises Unmet: Despite State declarations allowing minimal yard time (1 hour) and short showers (15 minutes), implementation remains inconsistent. Essential hygiene products and adequate food remain insufficient in many cases. Supreme Court Appeals: HaMoked submitted multiple appeals, three of which were rejected.Justice Kabub noted potential for future petitions to challenge the Israel Prison Service’s (IPS) failure to meet obligations, signaling possible shifts in burden of proof.

Articles name him Moaz, Moiz, Muazzaz Moazzaz,.. and his surname is spelled Obayyat, Obayat, Obaiat, Abayat, Abayad.. We opted for the following spelling: Moazzaz Obayat).* On October 2024, an article is released on Haaretz https://archive.ph/vlgvi **On November 20, 2024 Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt :** "Multiple reports appeared this year have revealed shocking facts and abuses at the Sde Teiman detention center, where Palestinians kidnapped in Gaza are held without charge/trial, reportedly mistreated, abused and even raped. Despite the serious allegations, in September the Israeli High Court of Justice ruled to keep Sde Teiman open, while instructing compliance with the Detainees' Rights Law (which does not stand int'l law scrutiny). Two important considerations: 1. There is an urgent call for @ICRC, the European Union, and other officials to inspect any Israeli facilities where Palestinians are detained, reportedly mistreated/brutally abused and often killed. 2. While the reported facts about the treatment of Palestinian detainees may qualify as war crimes & crimes against humanity under the Rome Statute, **they should be considered holistically as part of the totality of conduct revealing the intent of a state to commit genocide**. This is discussed in my recent report to the UN: Genocide as Colonial Erasure." **On November 24** Hebrew newspaper Haaretz: A quarter of Palestinian prisoners have been infected with scabies in recent months following a widespread outbreak in occupation prisons. [source ](https://x.com/PalpostN/status/1860996280412971242): **On December 23, 2024** +972mag released the investigation article "‘My hands are paralyzed from torture’: Gazans reveal horrors of Ofer Camp" sheds light on the brutal conditions faced by Palestinian detainees at **Israel’s Ofer Camp**, a facility established during the ongoing conflict. Testimonies from detainees, shared with Israeli human rights group HaMoked, describe severe physical abuse, including regular beatings, electric shocks, and handcuffing for 24 hours a day. - Detainees are subjected to forced kneeling, beatings, and electric shocks, with minimal food and hygiene. - The camp, located in the West Bank, is home to Palestinians classified as “unlawful combatants” and is part of Israel's detention system for individuals accused of supporting terrorism. - Lawyers report that detainees are often subjected to long periods of shackling and overcrowded cells, leading to significant health issues, including skin diseases and extreme weight loss. - Many detainees, like Rami, are released without charges after enduring intense physical and psychological suffering. - Despite Israeli claims that conditions comply with legal standards, testimonies highlight systemic torture and violation of detainees’ rights. - One detainee, Rafiq, reported that his hands became paralyzed due to torture, and others suffer from severe physical and mental trauma. The conditions have drawn international concern, although media coverage of Ofer Camp remains limited.
