"...#Israeli youths marched through the Muslim Quarter chanting “Death to Arabs”, “Flatten Gaza” and “There’s no school in #Gaza, there’s no children left”. Flagpoles were slammed against ancient doors, while marchers cursed the Prophet Muhammad and mocked the memory of #Palestine.

Not a single person was arrested for incitement."

"#Israeli KM Yulia Malinovsky held up the keys and the lock of the main door of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (#UNRWA) headquarters in #EastJerusalem during a parliamentary session yesterday bragging that she had locked the building and even the government could not access it as a result.

Malinovsky, who initiated the legislation to ban the #UN agency from #Israel and from working with Israeli government bodies, showed the lock to Knesset members, after raiding the UN agency’s office in East Jerusalem earlier this week."

"In speech addressing crowds at a Jerusalem Day rally on Monday, which celebrates Israel’s occupation of the old city of Jerusalem, Smotrich also called for “complete redemption” and reconstruction of “the Temple here,” referring to Al-Aqsa Mosque, which settlers had raided earlier.

“We are conquering the Land of Israel, liberating Gaza, settling Gaza and defeating the enemy,” #Smotrich said to crowds that had chanted “death to Arabs” as they marched through Jerusalem’s Old City and attacked #Palestinians. "

"The settlers left the injured where they lay and departed before the ambulance arrived. Ten #Palestinians were wounded, some with multiple fractures.

“This is all part of a project of ethnic cleansing in the #WestBank,” said Mohar. “It’s not done by crazy settlers. It’s a state project. The state is informed of everything. If there was a will to stop those attacks, it would have happened in a minute.”"

'JERUSALEM (AP) — Chanting “Death to #Arabs” and singing “May your village burn,” groups of young Israeli Jews made their way through #Muslim neighborhoods of #Jerusalem’s Old City on Monday during an annual march marking #Israel ‘s conquest of the eastern part of the city.

#Palestinian shopkeepers closed early and police lined the alleys ahead of the march that often becomes a rowdy and sometimes violent procession of ultranationalist #Jews. A police officer raised his arms in celebration at one point, hugging a marcher. It was blazing hot, with temperatures hitting 98 degrees Fahrenheit (37 Celsius) in late afternoon.'

In order to conquer and seize #Gaza, “We need to do it in a way” where the world “won’t stop us," #Netanyahu says.

[This is the most brazen and honest statement from Netanyahu since October 7. The only word he doesn’t use is “genocide”.]

'Assault on Children': #UNRWA Condemns Israeli Raids on #EastJerusalem Schools

"Now, nearly 800 girls and boys—some as young as 6 years old—are left in shock and trauma."

Brett Wilkins
May 08, 2025

"#Israeli occupation forces enforced a ban on the #UnitedNations agency for #Palestinian refugees on Thursday by storming three schools in East Jerusalem, terrorizing children and staff as they shuttered the facilities and drawing condemnation from human rights defenders.

According to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, heavily armed Israeli security forces raided the schools in the Shu'fat refugee camp in illegally occupied East Jerusalem, detaining one UNRWA employee and forcing around 550 children out of their classrooms as the invaders closed the facilities.

"#Israel is staging a massive offensive across four major refugee camps in the north of the #WestBank. The raids, at their height, pushed 40,000 people from their homes. Many are now sheltering with relatives in neighboring villages, others racking up debt renting apartments while they wait to return.

#Israeli officials, meanwhile, have said those displaced will not be allowed to go back for at least a year."
