Israeli troops have shot and injured at least two young Palestinian men during a series of violent clashes in the occupied West Bank, officials say. 

Palestinian security officials said the two sustained injuries when Israeli soldiers opened fire on a crowd of peaceful protesters in Nablus in the early hours of Thursday, the Palestinian Ma’an news agency reported.

The violent clashes began when several military vehicles escorted buses carrying Israeli settlers, who later stormed the shrine of Prophet Joseph to perform rituals under the protection of Israeli soldiers.

Witnesses say the move sparked angry reactions from Palestinians, who gathered near the holy site to oppose the presence of Israeli settlers.

The two injured Palestinians were identified as 23-year-old Iyad Muin Muhammad Kalbuna and Muhammad Ghassan Hammad Hashash, 24.

The still image highlights an unarmed Palestinian being targeted by an Israeli sniper.

A video has appeared on the Internet, reportedly showing an Israeli sniper gunning down an unarmed Palestinian in the occupied West Bank and then rejoicing for capturing the brutal shooting on tape.

“Got it! Wow, got it. Got video too,” the sniper yells out in Hebrew after what appears to be a kill shot in the West Bank village of Silwad. The Israeli soldier is shown aiming at the faraway victim, who collapses following a single gunshot.

 

According to Israeli website Mako, the soldier in the video belongs to the same Israeli military unit whose members were reportedly caught on video brutally beating and arresting a Palestinian man from Jalazone refugee camp near the West Bank city of Ramallah last week.

The building of a highly respected Roman Catholic Church in northern Israel has been set on fire and offensive slogans have been scribbled on one of its walls by suspected extremists.

According to reports on Thursday, extremists torched the Church of the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fish on the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee, writing Hebrew graffiti that were sprayed in red on one of its walls and denounced what they termed as “the worship of idols.”

Two people were also taken to hospital after inhaling thick smoke that had filled the area.

Micky Rosenfeld, an Israeli police spokesman, said the blaze has been put out; “however, both the interior and exterior of the church suffered extensive damage.”

He added that an investigation has been launched into the incident.

Global decisions like the US pulling out of a treaty banning strategic anti-ballistic missile defenses are pushing the world towards a new Cold War, Russian President Vladimir Putin said. Military conflicts have a far lesser impact, he added.

“Not military conflicts but global decisions like the US unilateral withdrawal from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty lead to a Cold War,” Putin said. “This more in fact pushes us to a new round of the arms race, because it changes the global security system.”

Putin made his comments at a key plenary session at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

Palestinian officials are planning to submit their first file to the International Criminal Court (ICC) to open criminal proceedings against the Israeli regime.

The file will be sent to the ICC chief prosecutor, Fatou Bensouda, on June 25, and will focus on the violations of international law by Israel, Palestinian Foreign Ministry official, Ammar Hijazi, told reporters in the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah on Thursday.

The move is part of Palestinians’ attempt against the Tel Aviv regime and the crimes it has committed against Palestinian territories, including crimes committed during the latest Israeli war on the besieged Gaza Strip last year.

The file is “only general, it’s only statistical,” Hijazi said, adding, “But it certainly draws a grim picture of what Israel is doing and why we think that there are reasonable grounds… for the prosecutor to start (her) investigations.”

He further noted that Palestinian officials would submit the details of specific incidents if Bensouda decides to proceed with inquiries.

Bensouda’s office has already launched a preliminary examination into the crimes that took place since June 2014, when an Israeli-fueled unrest led to another war between Israel and the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip.

United Nations chief has hit out at the Tel Aviv regime over its aggressive policies toward the Palestinian children, who bore the brunt of the 2014 Israeli war on the besieged Gaza Strip.   

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said on Thursday that he was “deeply alarmed at the suffering of so many children as a result of Israeli military operations in Gaza last year.”

Ban emphasized that more than 500 children lost their lives during the last summer’s Israeli aggression against the Palestinian enclave, demanding that Tel Aviv review its aggressive policies toward Palestinian kids.

“I urge Israel to take concrete and immediate steps, including by reviewing existing policies and practices, to protect and prevent the killing and maiming of children, and to respect the special protections afforded to schools and hospitals,” Ban said.

The remarks come just days after the UN chief came under fire by the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas and human rights groups for his decision to exclude the Israeli regime from its list of children’s rights violators.

Fawzi Barhoum, a Hamas spokesman, has described the move by the world body to keep the Tel Aviv regime off the list as a “shameful.”

The Human Rights Watch had also earlier urged the UN chief to add the Israeli regime to the annual “List of Shame,” saying Ban “can strengthen child protection in war by compiling his list based on facts, not political pressure.”

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas (C) and Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah (R) are seen in this AFP photo in the West Bank city of Ramallah on December 11, 2014.

The Palestinian national unity government formed last year to heal a split between President Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah Party and the Palestinian resistance movement, Hamas, has resigned, officials say.

Senior Palestinian officials say President Abbas has now tasked Premier Rami Hamdallah to form a new government.

Nimr Hammad, an adviser to Abbas said Wednesday that discussions to form a new government would include consultations with the various Palestinian political parties and factions. “Hamdallah handed his resignation to Abbas and Abbas ordered him to form a new government,” media outlets quoted Hammad as saying.

Amin Maqbul, the secretary general of the Revolutionary Council, which serves as Fatah’s legislative body, had earlier noted that the first Palestinian unity government was stepping down due to its inability to exert authority in the besieged and war-torn Gaza Strip. “The government will resign in the next 24 hours because this one is weak and there is no chance that Hamas will allow it to work in Gaza.”

Reacting to remarks by senior Fatah officials, Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri has strongly rejected the decision by Ramallah-based Fatah political party to unilaterally dissolve the government.

“Hamas rejects any one-sided change in the government without the agreement of all parties,” Zuhri said on early Wednesday, adding, “No one told us anything about any decision to change and no one consulted with us about any change in the unity government. Fatah acted on its own in all regards.”
