An Israeli court approved the forced displacement of all 500 residents of Ras Jrabah, a historical Bedouin village, to expand the Jewish city Dimona, which was built on their ancestral land. This is evidence that Israel is committing the crime of apartheid adalah.org/en/content/vie…
On 24 July, the Be'er Sheva Magistrate's Court issued the judgment ordering the residents of Ras Jrabah to leave the village & demolish their own homes by March 2024, and pay 117,000 NIS legal expenses. Adalah, which represents the residents, plans to appeal to the District Court
Despite the village predating the establishment of Israel, and the court’s acknowledgement that the residents have been living on the exact plots for almost 50 years, the court still found this insufficient to grant them any rights to their lands.
1/ On #NakbaDay, we mark the ongoing Nakba practiced by Israel against Palestinians. Adalah, @BimkomPlanners, and the RCUV are launching an interactive map visualizing Israel’s policies of forced displacement of Bedouins in the Naqab. bit.ly/3MtiNSY
2/ Israel continues to expand Jewish settlements and pursue "development" projects that perpetuate the displacement of Palestinians throughout historical Palestine.
3/ In 1948, 90,000 Bedouins lived in the Naqab. After the Nakba, only 11,000 remained, displaced to a small fraction of their ancestral land.
1/4 Today the incoming government issued its guiding principles, its first clause states that “The Jewish people have an exclusive and unquestionable right over all areas of the land of Israel.”
2/4 This goes even further than the 2018 Jewish National State Law, which defines self-determination as unique to the Jewish people within the ‘State of Israel'
3/4 The government also pledged to “strengthen its security forces and back soldiers and police officers”. The government here is committing to exacerbate its policy of blanket impunity to its armed forces when Palestinians are concerned.
🚨BREAKING: Adalah obtained video footage of police investigating the murder of Palestinian citizen, Mussa Hassouna, in Lod during the violent May 2021 events. The footage indicates that Israeli politicians pressured police to close the files against 5 Jewish-Israeli suspects.
Adalah appealed the prosecutor’s closure of the cases on behalf of Hassouna's family. The police conducted a negligent, flawed investigation with the ultimate aim of closing the cases and clearing the suspects. More👇 bit.ly/3OGLFWK
Adalah: In May 2021, Pal citizens were met with police brutality and armed Israeli-Jewish vigilante groups. The conduct of politicians in this case shows that these groups had their full support were even seen as a “force multiplier for authorities” acc. Israeli Security Minister
1/8 Today, Palestinian HR and civil society orgs. - @Addameer, @alhaq_org , @BisanResearch, @DCIPalestine, and UPWC submitted an objection against the Israeli Military Commander’s decision to declare them as “unlawful associations”, demanding its immediate cancellation.
2/8 The objection, submitted by the orgs’ legal team – Adalah, the offices of Attorneys Michael Sfard @sfardm and Attorney Jawad Boulus, was filed after the commander’s repeated refusal to reveal the alleged “evidence” against the organizations. More info bit.ly/3HrCyVR
3/8 Read the English summary of the Introduction to the Objection >> bit.ly/3rnd869
1/6 The Israeli decision to designate six human right and civil society organizations as terrorist organizations is unprecedented attack on human rights defenders who are exposing and resisting the Israeli occupation and its apartheid policies in the West Bank. >>
2/6 It is not only an attack on human rights but also an attack on Palestinian existence itself and Palestinians' right to self-determination. >>
3/6 Israel is now attempting to deny Palestinians their right to assembly and association by criminalizing civil society organizations that provide vital human rights and social services. >>
