JEDDAH  – The Israeli Defence Forces, IDF has intensified ethnic cleansing in the Gaza Strip in the last seven days, killing a total of 359 Palestinians and injuring 1169 people with many still left under the rubbles.

This is based on observation by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, OIC on Israel crimes  against the Palestinians.

“The majority of these casualties were concentrated in the Gaza Strip, where Israeli aggression affected almost all areas, especially the Jabalia, Nuseirat, Beit Lahia, Deir al-Balah, Rafah, and Khan Yunis camps resulting in 29 massacres”, the OIC observatory reports noted.

The report alluded to the Abu Nasr family massacre in Beit Lahia, which included forcibly displaced persons from Jabalia, adding that in response, the Beit Lahia municipality declared a state of disaster.

“The occupation forces also continued to target the displaced in Deir al-Balah and the vicinity of al-Awda Hospital in al-Nuseirat”, adding that the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) announced that the occupation forces killed 50 children in two consecutive days in northern Gaza.

UNICEF also confirmed that it was unable to reach 15,000 Palestinian children under the age of ten in northern Gaza to administer the second dose of the polio vaccine.

“In the West Bank, 5 Palestinians were killed by the occupation forces, 141 others were arrested, and 7 homes were demolished, most of them in neighborhoods of occupied Jerusalem. Also, Israelis occupied 5 homes in Tulkarm and Jenin and turned them into military barracks, and approved the confiscation of 64 dunums of Palestinian land in the village of Umm Tuba in Jerusalem, which will lead to the evacuation of about 30 homes in which 139 Palestinians live.

“ The occupation army also demolished the office of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in the Nour Shams camp in Tulkarm, bulldozing its outer walls, as well as demolishing an agricultural nursery and an agricultural room in Qalqilya and another agricultural room in Jerusalem. During their storming of the Nour Shams camp, the occupation forces also bulldozed streets and infrastructure, causing a power outage in the camp.

“Settlers launched 60 attacks on Palestinian villages and towns, where they burned 20 cars and the facade of a house during their raid on the city of Al-Bireh. They also placed toxic materials in the Nura spring, causing the death of 13 sheep.

“The Israeli aggression on the olive season in the West Bank continued throughout October and early November. In just one week, 53 attacks were recorded, affecting 41 villages. These attacks, carried out by the occupation army alongside the settlers varied between preventing farmers from harvesting their crops, cutting and uprooting olive branches and trees, burning them, bulldozing agricultural lands, blocking the roads leading to the farms, and stealing olive crops”, the OIC observatory noted, adding that West Bank villages were subjected to six settlement activities, ranging from paving settlement roads in Tubas, to setting up mobile homes in the villages of Dura and Yatta in Hebron and Khalayel Al-Loz in Bethlehem, in addition to setting up barbed wire around a house in the Arab Al-Malihat community in preparation for its seizure.

“In the city of Hebron, the occupation authorities prevented Palestinians from performing prayers at the Ibrahimi Mosque for two consecutive days to open it for the performance of Talmudic rituals by extremist settlers”.
