Why does Israel keep the bodies of Palestinians?

Dozens of Palestinian bodies have been confiscated by Israel in the occupied West Bank, since the war began on October 7. Human rights organisations fear that many more are being taken away from Gaza and they may not be returned like several others whose remains have not been returned for years by Israeli authorities.

US taking more ‘assertive’ steps to curb settler violence

The US is taking increasingly assertive steps in trying to limit settler violence. First, the demand was made for Israel to control “extremist” violence. Following that, a visa ban was imposed last week on some individuals linked to this violence. Now, the shipment of 27,000 military-style rifles, initially destined for the Israeli national police, has been temporarily halted by the Biden administration. There are concerns that these weapons could end up in the hands of settlers. Notably, the pause comes after the shipment had already cleared the initial congressional review and passed the committee stage. Al Jazeera’s Heidi Zhou-Castro has the latest from Washington, DC.

Occupied West Bank: Israeli military raid on Jenin enters second day

The protracted Israeli military raid on Jenin and the Jenin refugee camp has surpassed the 24-hour mark with no signs of conclusion. The ongoing operation now stands as one of the “largest, longest” on the occupied West Bank since the commencement of Israel’s war on Gaza on October 7, sources reported. Reports from the Palestinian Prisoners’ Club suggest that up to 100 Palestinians may have been apprehended during the raid, with indications that approximately 30 of the initially detained individuals may have been released. Hospitals in the Jenin area have been encircled by Israeli forces, and accounts are suggesting that the obstruction of access to medical services may have resulted […]

Denial & escalation: US sanctions follow Israeli settler violence in West Bank

The US State Department announced on Tuesday it is issuing travel bans on dozens of Israelis and some Palestinians for taking part in violence in the Occupied West Bank. Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank deny daily harassment, dismissing US concerns. Contrary to their claims, documented attacks have doubled since October 7, prompting travel bans for some settlers. While downplayed by settlers, the Biden administration’s move is seen as symbolic. NGOs supporting settlements may face scrutiny. Despite on-the-ground denials, escalating violence raises questions about further US intervention. Al Jazeera’s Patty Culhane reports.

US announces visa bans after warning Israel on West Bank settler violence

The US Department of State has said that it will impose visa restrictions on Israeli settlers involved in undermining peace, security or stability in the occupied West Bank. Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced the move on Tuesday, one day after the State Department said that Israel has not taken sufficient steps to address settler attacks that have driven many Palestinians off their land. President Joe Biden and other senior US officials have warned repeatedly that Israel must act to stop violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank, which has increased since the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel. Palestinians have described settler violence as one part […]
