Israeli Soldiers Strap Palestinian on Armored Vehicle and Parade in Jenin

Mujahed Raed Al Abbadi was beaten outside his home to an inch of his life by Israeli soldiers in a military vehicle. The cosines and friends he was standing with outside his house in Jenin also suffered gunshot wounds.

But Mujahed was the worse to suffer. He was beaten and shot twice both in the hand and leg. As he fell down in front of the vehicle, one Israeli soldier shot him in the leg. But this was just the beginning because the soldiers decided they wanted a show.

“As soon as the Israeli soldiers arrived, they stepped on my head, they stepped on my head while I was wounded. They hit me in the face, kicked me, hit me on the wound in my leg and twisted and injured my hand…”

With the young men sprawelled in pain on the floor, four soldiers picked him by the arms and legs and hurled him onto the hood of the armored vehicle but he fell down again. The soldiers did it again, this time he maintained position on of the car.

This is the why he put it.  “Every bone was broken. They completely broken the bones in my hand and my leg and they laughed about it and played while they beat me. Two of the soldiers grabbed my hands and two others my feet and started waving me back and forth and throwing me onto the front of the military car, but I fell to the ground.”

But the sadistic fun continued. The soldiers strapped him to the front the vehicle and rode around for another 15 minutes in the different areas of camp before they let him go.

“It was scorching hot he says and my back was burning and I stayed there for 20 minites,” he was reported as saying from his hospital bed.

“He had an open fracture and last a part of his tissues, muscles and skin,~” said Bahaa Abu Hammad, an orthopaedic doctor.

“He was treated in A & E, the wounds were washed, antibiotics, given and X-rays were taken, it later became clear that there was a complicated fracture of the right femur and humerus. He underwent emergency surgery, during which, the fractures were stabilized externally and will require internal fixation at a later date.”

ICC: What’s Next For Netanyahu, Gallant?

Israel is preparing for potential arrest warrants by the International Criminal Court (ICC) against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

On Sunday, the Hague-based court reposted a notice in Hebrew, Arabic, and English explaining its procedures according to Anadolu.

“After gathering evidence and identifying a suspect, the prosecution requests ICC judges to issue: an arrest warrant, which national authorities enforce; or a summons to appear, where suspects appear voluntarily,” the notice reads.

This marks the fourth time since the beginning of June that the ICC has shared this post on its social media accounts as reported by the Turkish news agency.

On May 20, ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan announced that he had requested arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant on charges of crimes against humanity and war crimes in the Gaza Strip.

No official decision from the court has been made as of yet.

While Israel has condemned and rejected the prosecutor’s request, it remains unclear how Tel Aviv will respond if arrest warrants are issued.

“Discussions are underway in Israel regarding a defense strategy for Netanyahu, Gallant, and the state of Israel in case the ICC issues arrest warrants,” the Israeli public broadcaster KAN said.

“The preparations aim to ensure that Israel is ready if such a decision is made by the ICC judges,” it added.

KAN said it remains unclear whether Israel will present a legal defense at The Hague as Tel Aviv does not recognize the court’s authority.

“Israel prefers to prepare for the worst-case scenario, which includes potential arrest orders, and is thus discussing a possible defense stance against such a decision,” it added.

Israel is not a member of the ICC, whereas Palestine was accepted as a member in 2015.

The ICC, established in 2002, is an independent international body not affiliated with the United Nations or any other international institution, and its decisions are binding.

Despite Israel’s rejection of the ICC’s jurisdiction, the court’s authority extends to the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, allowing it to prosecute Israeli officials accused of committing crimes in these areas, Anadolu concluded.

Israel-India: Comrade-in-arms Over Gaza

India has been supplying Israel with weapons ever since the latter started its war on Gaza since 7 October, 2023.

New Delhi has been supplying Israel with artillery shells, drones and other weapons on a regular basis. It supplied Israel the advanced Hermes 900 drones that have been towering over the skies of Gaza for the last nine months.

The Hermes 900 is a drone that can be used for surveillance and aerial bombardment and have already been in active deployment in the Gaza Strip.

India joins the USA, France, Britain, Germany and Canada as an Israeli constant military supplier to keep Israel’s devastating war on Gaza going and resulted in the killing of more than 37,000 people and injured 85,000 today combined with the mass bombings of the houses, schools, infrastructure, government buildings and more.

Traditionally it has been Israel that exported hardware military equipment to India, however, Tel Aviv’s war on Gaza has turned things around. Now, it is India that is the main exporter of arms to Israel.

It continued with the 27-ton explosives shipment that India tried to send to Israel through Spanish ports last May. But today this relationship continues as India has become crucial in providing Israel with ammunition through joint deals between Israeli and Indian defence contracting companies.

The military relationship underscores the close ties that developed between India and Israeli under Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Narendra Modi who become the first Indian Prime Minister to visit Israel and 2017.

Today India and Israel are regarded as key allies, underlined by the fact that the latter has become a huge destination for Indian tourists.  

However, the ex-Israeli ambassador in New Delhi Daniel Carmon put the relation between the two countries in an overall context. He said India might be supplying weapons to Israel as a gesture of gratitude for Israel assistance during the Kargil war of 1999 as reported in the Quds News Network.

“The Indians always remind us that Israel was there for them during the Kargil war. Israel was one of the few countries that stood by them and provided them with weapons. The Indians don’t forget this and might now be returning the favor,” Carmon stated.

The comments of the former diplmat came amid reports confirming India has supplied drones and artillery shells to Israel during its ongoing war on Gaza, which international bodies like the International Criminal Court and International Court of Justice have ruled as involving serious war crimes committed by Israel.

However despite the developing close relations India have always backed a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict when India established a PLO office in the country in the 1970s.

Further, in 2108 Modi made it a point of visiting Ramallah as part of a regional visit to Jordan and the Arab Gulf countries and in an effort to balance India’s foreign policy in the Middle East.
