The Israeli human rights organization B’Tselem released video evidence on Thursday showing Israeli soldiers executing two Palestinian men during a military invasion in Jenin, in the occupied West Bank’s northern part.
The footage, published by the group, depicts Yousef Asa’sa (39) and al-Muntasir-Billah Abdullah (26) emerging from a building with their hands raised, fully complying with soldiers’ orders, before being shot at close range.
B’Tselem stated that the men posed no threat and were unarmed, and described the incident as a field execution, emblematic of Israel’s open-fire policy in the occupied West Bank.
B’Tselem’s executive director Yuli Novak condemned the killings, stating: “This represents the direct result of a reality in which Palestinians are stripped of their humanity and their lives are discarded without restraint.”
She emphasized that Israel lacks genuine accountability mechanisms and called on the international community to end the impunity granted to soldiers and colonizers.

Former Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett faces legal action in Brazil after the Brazil–Palestine Institute (IBRASPAL) submitted an official request to the federal judiciary calling for his arrest during his planned visit to São Paulo yesterday. His visit was scheduled for an event at what is known as the Hebraica Club of São Paulo, a Brazilian-Jewish social and recreational community centre.
The request is based on accusations of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide against Palestinian civilians, particularly in the Gaza Strip.
In an interview with Quds Press, the institute’s president, Ahmed Shahada, said Bennett’s entry into Brazilian territory “opens a clear legal window that allows the state to take judicial action if suspicion of his involvement in serious international crimes is confirmed”. He added that Brazilian legislation, along with the country’s international commitments, gives the federal judiciary the authority to open investigations and pursue such cases.
Shahada explained that “the legal grounds for the arrest request are based on Brazil’s commitment to prosecuting major international crimes under its legislative framework”, noting that the incorporation of the Geneva Conventions and the Rome Statute into national law “allows investigations to be opened against anyone entering the country who is suspected of committing serious crimes”.

Famed Irish novelist Sally Rooney told the UK High Court on Thursday that she may be unable to publish new work in Britain as long as the legal ban on activist group Palestine Action remains in place, citing her public support for the movement, local media reported, Anadolu reports.
Rooney warned that the ban, issued this summer, could even result in her existing books being pulled from shelves, with her case presented in court as an example of the ban’s wider impact on freedom of expression, reported The Guardian.
Rooney praised Palestine Action’s activities as “courageous and admirable,” saying the group is committed to stopping what it views as crimes against humanity by Israel in its two-year military offensive on the Gaza Strip.
In her written witness statement, the bestselling author of Normal People and Conversations With Friends said the ban would leave her effectively shut out of the UK market, explaining: “It is … almost certain that I can no longer publish or produce any new work within the UK while this proscription remains in effect.”
“If Palestine Action is still proscribed by the time my next book is due for publication, then that book will be available to readers all over the world and in dozens of languages, but will be unavailable to readers in the United Kingdom simply because no one will be permitted to publish it (unless I am content to give it away for free).”
Since the group was banned, Rooney has said she plans to direct earnings from her work to Palestine Action, a decision that prompted her to cancel a UK trip to collect an award over concerns she could be arrested.
The legal ambiguity makes it hard to foresee the full impact of the ban, she said, but warned her publisher Faber & Faber might be barred from paying her royalties. If that happens, she said, “my existing works may have to be withdrawn from sale and would therefore no longer be available to readers in the UK.”
Adam Straw, representing UN special rapporteur Ben Saul, told the court that growing legal opinion holds the ban to be an unlawful interference under international law, adding that terrorism definitions “do not extend to serious damage to property,” referring to the group spray-painting Royal Air Force planes this July which was cited in the ban.
Representing the home secretary, Sir James Eadie argued that it is for the UK parliament to define terrorism, noting: “Parliament has decided what terrorism is, which includes serious damage to property, whether or not alongside it there is violence against people.”
The hearing will conclude on Tuesday, when the final day of the judicial review is held.
In attacks in Gaza since October 2023, Israel has killed nearly 70,000 people, mostly women and children, and injured over 170,000 others.
In November 2024, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant over war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

American teenager Mohammed Ibrahim [AJEnglish/X]
American teenager Mohammed Ibrahim has been released nine months after Israeli forces detained him during a nighttime raid in the occupied West Bank, according to statements shared Thursday by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Anadolu reports.
Sixteen-year-old Ibrahim was arrested on Feb. 16 when Israeli forces reportedly entered his family’s home in al-Mazra’a ash-Sharqiya in the occupied West Bank.
His family said that Ibrahim was subjected to beatings, starvation, and other mistreatment while held in an Israeli military prison.
“Mohammed should have spent this year studying for his learner’s permit and enjoying time with his family—not locked in a military prison, beaten, starved, and terrified. His release is cause for celebration, but it must also be a turning point. The U.S. cannot continue providing unchecked support to a government that tortures American children,” said CAIR Florida on US social media company X.
While CAIR National welcomed his release, they emphasized the importance of taking action to prevent such treatment of a teenager.
“Mohammed’s homecoming is a blessing, but it does not erase the torture and suffering he endured,” it said, adding: “The U.S. government has a responsibility to investigate Israel’s abuse of an American citizen and ensure that no other child—American or Palestinian—is subjected to the same treatment.”
His uncle, Zeyad Kadur, in a statement, said the family is relieved after months of fear.
“Words can’t describe the immense relief we have as a family right now, to have Mohammed in his parents’ arms,” he said, adding that they are focused on securing medical care after “Israel’s abuse and inhumane conditions for months.”
Urging the “American government to protect our families,” Kadur said: “Mohammed was forced to spend his 16th birthday unjustly imprisoned by Israel, separated from the people who love him. Now that Mohammed is with his family, we can finally wish him a happy birthday.”

France, Germany, Italy, and the UK called on Israel on Thursday to comply with international law and take immediate steps to protect Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, as illegal Israeli settler attacks reached their peak in nearly two decades, Anadolu reports.
In a joint statement, the four countries, known collectively as the E4, “strongly condemn the massive increase of settler violence against Palestinian civilians and call for stability in the West Bank.”
The ministers said they are “deeply alarmed” by what they described as a surge in attacks by Israeli settlers, warning that the escalating violence is destabilizing the West Bank and increasing the risk of wider regional tension.
Citing UN figures, the statement noted that 264 settler attacks were recorded in October, the highest monthly number since systematic monitoring began in 2006.
The E4 called on the Israeli government to “abide by its obligations under international law and protect the Palestinian population of the occupied territories,” stressing that authorities must ensure accountability.
“We therefore urge the Government of Israel to hold those accountable who are responsible for those crimes and to prevent further violence by addressing the root causes of this behaviour,” the statement said.
Reiterating long-standing positions on the conflict, the four governments said they remain opposed to “any form of annexation – whether partial, total or de facto – and settlement policies violating international law.”
They also reaffirmed their support for a negotiated, peaceful settlement to the conflict, stating: “We reaffirm our commitment to a… two-state solution… living side by side in peace and security and mutual recognition.”
The ministers stressed that the ongoing attacks must come to an end.
“These attacks must stop,” they said. “They sow terror among civilians, undermine ongoing peace efforts and ultimately harm the lasting security of the State of Israel itself.”
