A report by the Israeli rights group, B’Tselem said that the Israeli army has been illegally using force following the killing of an Israeli rabbi last month, during Israeli raids on the West Bank.
The report noted that Israeli use of Dutch army dogs caused the injury of three Palestinians, including a woman, in addition to terrorizing children through releasing them inside homes during raids.
The report cited a violation where Israeli army demolished four houses in Jenin, one of which was demolished while the residents were still inside. B’Tselem also documented the storming of two houses in the villages of the area, during which they incited dogs to attack three women, then body-searched them undressed during the dawn raids.
According to the PNN, the report recounted terrifying details about the use of dogs by occupation officers on February 3, 2018 at 6:00 am, when dozens of soldiers raided the town of Burqin in Jenin, where the soldiers surrounded the house of Mabrouk and Inas Jarrar (40, and 37 years old). Soldiers blew up the entrance door to the building, where the sound of explosions woke them up. The two rushed to bring their children (3 years and 9 years) to their bedroom. Minutes later. the soldiers blew up the door of their house on the second floor.
After the explosion, a dog was released into their bedroom, where it bit the father (Mabrouk) in his left shoulder and knocked him down. Inas tried to free her husband from the dog’s teeth but couldn’t. The boys hid behind the bed and cried.
In an affidavit to B’Tselem, fieldworker Abd al-Karim Sa’di on February 4, 2018, Inas described what happened next: “I ran to the door to ask for help and then I saw soldiers standing at the top of the stairs leading to our house. The soldiers shouted at me in Arabic to take everyone out of the house; one of them demanded that Ahmed Jarrar (the wanted young man) be removed from the house. I begged them to save my husband from the dog but they remained standing and did nothing […] Their fear of my parents in their clothes and could not stand on their feet.”
In his testimony on 14 February, 2018 to B’Tselem’s fieldworker, Abdelkarim Saadi, Mabrouk Jarrar described what happened to him after the soldiers dropped him on the stairs: “At the end of the stairs, one of the soldiers took me out of the dog’s teeth. Then another soldier came and punched me twice on my nose. The soldiers took me to one of the rooms on the first floor of the house. All this time blood was flowing from my left arm and from my nose. Then a big officer came and seemed surprised by what the dog had done to me. The officer showed me by his cell phone and ordered the soldiers to free my hands from the restrictions – which they had already placed. The officer was talking to the soldiers in Hebrew and I understand her a bit.”
Only two and a half hours later, the soldiers evacuated Mabrouk Jarrar for treatment at Afula hospital. There, they tied his legs to the bed and put two soldiers at the door of the room. A week later, on 11 February, the soldiers removed the restraints from his hands and informed him that he had been released without taking action. On the 13th, Mabrouk was transferred to Rafidia Hospital for follow-up treatment.
On February 8, 2018, while Mabrouk Jarrar was still lying in the Afula hospital, about 20 soldiers came to his home at around 3:00 am. Inas Jarrar was at home with her mother-in-law (Houria, 75) and her sister-in-law (Dalal, 50, Dumb and Down’s syndrome). Both came to support and help them deal with what happened. Since the incident, the newborns have stayed at the home of their father’s first wife.
The soldiers stormed the door on the first floor and went straight up to the second floor. When Inas opened the door, they entered the house and asked if there was a man in the house. They also asked Inas if she had money because, if the answer was yes, “it was money from Hamas and they had to confiscate it.”
Enas told them that there was no money and then the soldiers searched the house. When they did not find anything, the soldiers ordered Inas to go into the bedroom to carry out a search of her body. In the bedroom, the soldier asked Inas to take off her clothes completely and stand naked and then searched the same way the other two women who were at home. In an affidavit made on February 8, 2008 by B’Tselem’s fieldworker Abdel-Karim Saadi, Inas said:
“The soldier asked me to take off all my clothes and I did what I was asked for. I thought she would only search me by passing a scanner but I was surprised by her insisting that I take off my underwear as well. After taking off my clothes, the soldier took a look at the clothes she had taken off and then ordered me to turn her back and I was naked. I felt broken and humiliated. I wished death to myself so that I would not witness such moments again. The soldier ordered me to kneel and stayed for two or three minutes – the longest minutes I have ever had. Just then she told me that I could wear my clothes. I believe this soldier does not have an atom of morality or humanity.”
In her testimony to B’Tselem, on 13 February, 2018, Houria Jarrar described what happened to her after leaving the room with the soldier: “Inas and the soldier entered the room where we were. The soldier told me she wanted to search our bodies. I cried and said to her, ‘What do you want from me! I am an old woman and I move with difficulty, you should be ashamed of yourselves!’ Inas and the soldier helped me to take off my clothes as I sat on the bed. I felt helpless and deeply saddened by what the soldier had done to me and I was crying all the time. How can a young soldier force an elderly woman like me to take off her clothes and reveal her nakedness in front of her in this way? After the inspection, the soldier Inas ordered that she help her to remove my daughter Dalal as well. Inas helped her and the soldier searched Dalal’s body. I could not stop crying.”
In another story, at approximately 04:00, security forces stormed the house of Nur al-Din and Samahar ‘Awad, 48, 42, and four children. The soldiers stormed the door of the house and when Samaher awoke from the noise they made, she saw a dog standing in her bedroom. She screamed and her husband woke up and immediately jumped from his bed to the dog to get him out of the room. The dog then bitten him with his right hand and the soldiers who were standing at the bedroom door did not move.
The soldiers ordered the family members not to leave the house and then left themselves a few minutes later. A few more minutes passed and, then, the family heard roads on the back door of their house. In her testimony on February 4, 2018 in front of B’Tselem’s fieldworker, Abdel-Karim Sa’di, Samaher Awad described what happened next as follows: “I was carrying my two-year-old son Karam and he was crying and hugging my chest. I opened the door which the soldiers had ordered, and with a dog attacking me with a hump to my breast, and my son fell upon the ground. My dog banged my chest and then managed to keep it away from me but grabbed my left thigh. I gathered all my strength and managed to push it away from me. All this and the soldiers stand and look without doing anything. All this time my husband was begging the soldiers to take the dog.
“One of the soldiers spoke with the dog in Hebrew and then the dog attacked and grabbed me from my left hand and kept holding it for several minutes until another soldier came,” Samaher said. “I started bleeding heavily. My husband asked them to treat my hand but they did not care.”

Israeli soldiers abducted, Sunday, at least seven Palestinians in several parts of the occupied West Bank, including Jerusalem, after the soldiers invaded and searched many homes.
The Palestinian Prisoners’ Society (PPS) has reported that dozens of soldiers invaded the northern West Bank city of Nablus, and nearby communities, and abducted Yacoub al-‘Aassi.
It is worth mentioning that Ya’coub in the brother of Abdul-Hakim, who is wanted by the military allegedly for killing an Israeli colonialist settler, identified as Raziel Shevach, 35, from Gilad illegal outpost, near Nablus.
Furthermore, the soldiers abducted Ahmad ‘Atef Raja from his home in Aqbat Jabr refugee camp, in Jericho.
The soldiers also invaded and searched homes in Hizma town, near Jerusalem, and abducted Bashar Suleiman and Mahmoud Talal Jouda.
In al-‘Isawiya town, in Jerusalem, the soldiers also searched many homes and abducted Mahmoud Fayez Mahmoud, 40, and Mohammad Ibrahim Mustafa, 44, in addition to summoning Shadi Moheisin for interrogation.

In al-‘Isawiya town, in Jerusalem, the soldiers also searched many homes and abducted Mahmoud Fayez Mahmoud, 40, and Mohammad Ibrahim Mustafa, 44, in addition to summoning Shadi Moheisin for interrogation.
It took only seven minutes for detection dogs unleashed by the Israeli military at the home of prisoner Mabrouk Jarrar to turn the latter’s body into a blood-spattered entity mauled from head to toe by the dogs’ unsympathetic incisors.
A native of Burkin town, in Jenin, Jarrar thought that by hiding in his bedroom along with his family members after heavily-armed Israeli soldiers broke into the home would spare him from the soldiers' violent assault.
However, sounds of a loud explosion shattered the windows of the house after a bomb was discharged by the occupation forces. Suddenly, Jarrar was brutally caught and attacked by a gigantic police dog.
“Every time the dog sank his daggers-like teeth into my body I just had the feeling that I was going to breath my least,” Jarrar told the Palestinian Information Center (PIC), adding, “The dog started to bite off my left hand and leg."
The scene was not so much dissimilar to an attack by Israeli soldiers on a disarmed child.
“The Israeli soldiers stood behind the wall, having their hearts in their mouths as they feared that slain Ahmed Jarrar, whom they were chasing down, would suddenly show up,” he added.
Jarrar was attacked by Israeli army hounds for seven minutes, causing him injuries, bruises, and neck fractures.
As soon as his wife plucked up her courage to defend him, the dogs were about to turn to her, but she immediately ran out of the house screaming at the soldiers and asking for help.
“My children have gone traumatized due to the attack. The live scene will forever remain stuck in their memories as long as they live,” she said.
“The soldiers kept looking at my husband in cold-blood, saying they will only save him if he reveals Ahmed Jarrar’s location. However, they soon beat him up and arrested him, knowing that their blackmailing would just go in vain.”
Jarrar was later transferred to the Israeli Afoula Hospital for treatment. Shortly after the Israeli army tracked down Ahmed Jarrar and killed him, the occupation authorities released him. He was moved to Nablus-based Rafidia Hospital to continue his treatment.

Palestinian detainee Mabrouk Jarrar was transferred on Tuesday evening to Rafidia Hospital in Nablus, hours after he was released from an Israeli jail.
Jarrar requires treatment for injuries sustained during his arrest when he was attacked by Israeli police dogs on February 3 during a manhunt to chase down slain activist Ahmed Jarrar.
Speaking with a PIC news correspondent, Jarrar’s family said the Israeli occupation forces left their son bleeding for hours
after he was brutally assaulted by police dogs. Severe injuries were inflicted on Jarrar’s shoulder, hand, and left leg. He was reportedly dragged by the occupation soldiers down to the bottom floor of his family house while his body was covered in blood.
A couple of days ago, the occupation authorities decided to release Jarrar but kept him in the Afoula Hospital, where he had received medical treatment.
Prisoner Jarrar, a native of Jenin’s western town of Berkin, had spent several years in Israeli lock-ups on account of his affiliations with Hamas resistance movement.

The Israel Prison Service has moved captive Mabrouk Jarrar from al-Afula hospital to Megiddo prison despite his difficult health condition caused by injuries he sustained after being attacked by a police dog a few days ago during his arrest.
The Palestinian Prisoner Society said in a statement on Friday that Jarrar, a resident of Burqin town in Jenin, earlier told his lawyer that the Israeli occupation forces who came to arrest him left him to bleed for hours without providing him any treatment.
Jarrar told the lawyer that a few days ago he and his family woke up at 5:30 am after hearing the sound of an explosion close to their house. At around 6:00 am, Jarrar heard another loud explosion that shattered the windows of his house after a bomb was thrown at the house's entrance.

Jarrar continued to say that when he tried to go out to tell the Israeli soldiers that there were children in the house, he was surprised by a huge police dog attacking him and biting his shoulder and left arm and leg. The dog then dragged him from the second floor to the first floor. He added that although he was bleeding and screaming for help, none of the soldiers helped him. Moreover, one of the soldiers punched him in the face causing his nose to break. The injured detainee pointed out that he was left to bleed for hours inside a military jeep then he was taken to Salem military camp. Hours later, he was transferred to al-Afula hospital. |
Jarrar, who is not able to sleep properly and can barely move his left arm and leg, is in urgent need for long and intensive treatment.

Responding to statement by U.S. Ambassador David Friedman, the official Palestinian Presidency spokesperson, Nabil Abu Rodeina, said Tuesday that the ongoing illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine is the root cause of all violence in the region, and denounced the American stances that destroy all chances of real peace.
Abu Rodeina stated that Israel’s insistence on keeping its illegal occupation, violations and apartheid colonialist policies, are the root cause of all violence in the entire region.
He added that the only way to end the conflict and achieve peace in the region is to end the ongoing illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine, by implementing all related United Nations and Security Council resolutions that call for ending this and establishing an independent Palestinian state.
His statements came in response to the American Ambassador to Israel David M. Friedman, who accused the Palestinian leadership of praising attacks against Israel, including the latest stabbing Itamar illegal Israeli colony, in the occupied West Bank.
Abu Rodeina said that, instead of trying to create a positive atmosphere that could enable the resumption of real peace talks, Friedman is seeking further tension, and is attempting to bring more violence to the region.
“Such statements are unbecoming of an Ambassador; they are complete flawed and aim at creating more tension,” he said, “The Palestinian leadership supports nonviolent resistance against the Israeli occupation, and never condones violence of any type. Friedman’s statements only lead to more harm and violence to the region.”
The Palestinian official also stated that real and comprehensive peace requires the full Israeli withdrawal from the occupied territories, the establishment of a viable, contagious Palestinian State, with East Jerusalem as its capital, by implementing all related international resolutions.
