Live: Israeli soldiers kill unarmed Palestinians as they surrender in Jenin

A prisoner held on remand in the UK for alleged offences relating to Palestine Action activities has failed to return after being temporarily released from a south London Prison.

Sean Middleborough, 32, who was being held on remand at HMP Wandsworth, failed to return after being granted bail to attend his brother’s wedding.

Middleborough is among the “Filton 24” - a group of Palestine Action activists arrested on terrorism charges in connection with an action targeting an Elbit Systems weapons facility in August 2024.

While the terrorism charges have been dropped, the Crown Prosecution Service has said that their charges have a “terrorism connection,” which could aggravate their sentences.

Many have been held for over a year on remand - exceeding the legal six month pre-trial custody time limit.

The Foreign Press Association (FPA), which represents hundreds of foreign journalists, said it was "appalled" by recent Israeli settler attacks on journalists in the occupied West Bank, especially during this year's olive harvest.

"Journalists, both local and foreign, have proven to be a clear target as they document an unprecedented level of unchecked violence against Palestinians during this year's olive harvest," the association said, citing two incidents involving journalists from international media outlets.

The FPA said that on Saturday two employees of Reuters wearing clearly marked press vests and helmets were assaulted by masked Israeli civilians armed with clubs and rocks near the Palestinian village of Beita.

"A mob of dozens of settlers beat one of the employees, a female reporter, while she was already on the ground, resulting in severe injuries," the FPA said.

"They also attacked those who tried to help her. A Reuters security person was hit, and two Palestinian freelance journalists were injured while being chased."

On 10 October, Israeli settlers beat a veteran AFP photographer with sticks when filming the olive harvest in the same area.

His car, along with a handful of others parked at a safe distance from the field, was stoned and then set on fire.

"The photographer, who testified it was one of the worst attacks in his 30-year career, reported that Israeli forces at the scene refused to intervene, instead firing rubber bullets and tear gas at olive pickers and activists accompanying them," the FPA said.

Several such incidents have occurred in the last few weeks, the FPA added.

"Israeli forces routinely harass and intimidate journalists, in some cases detaining them and threatening them with deportation," the FPA said.

"This is all part of a deepening climate of hostility toward the media by Israeli authorities," it added, urging the authorities to investigate the incidents and hold the perpetrators accountable.

"In particular, we urge central command head Major General Avi Bluth and police commander Moshe Pinchi to uphold their duties to ensure that journalists can work freely and safely," the association said.

"There cannot be press freedom in an environment in which journalists are threatened and harmed with complete impunity."

The Turkish government is finalising plans that would result in the deployment of hundreds of soldiers to Gaza as part of an international peacekeeping force, as negotiations with the US and Israel continue on the issue, Middle East Eye can reveal.

Sources familiar with the matter told MEE that a peacekeeping brigade, estimated to include at least 2,000 soldiers, has been drafting personnel from across the country in recent weeks. The contingent, which would join the international stabilisation force in Gaza alongside other partner countries, is set to be made up of soldiers from multiple army branches with prior peacekeeping and conflict-zone experience.

The Gaza peace plan, brokered by US President Donald Trump, envisions Turkey as one of the lead countries to take over large swathes of territory in the Palestinian enclave from Hamas.

But the Israeli government opposes the move, Washington is yet to make a decision and a UN resolution has not been passed. 

“There will be no Turkish boots on the ground,” Israeli government spokesperson Shosh Bedrosian told reporters on Sunday. Turkish sources say the hesitation stems from Israel’s reluctance to accept a strong Nato ally operating under a UN mandate - which has not yet been granted - in the enclave.

A month into the ceasefire in Gaza, almost nothing has changed for Manar Jendiya.

Originally from Gaza City, the Palestinian mother has remained displaced in Deir al-Balah since the truce took effect on 11 October, as most of her neighbourhood, Shujaiya, remains under Israeli control.

Two weeks into the agreement, Israeli forces heavily bombed the area where she was staying, forcing her to seek refuge elsewhere.

One of the attacks killed her sister.

“Her husband was killed earlier in the war, so she had been caring for her children alone,” Jendiya told Middle East Eye.

“When the attacks in Gaza City escalated and evacuation orders were issued repeatedly, she didn’t want to risk losing her children as well, so she sought refuge in a makeshift tent in central Gaza,” she added.

“She never imagined she would be killed here too, leaving her children without a mother or father.”

US envoy Jared Kushner and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met in Jerusalem on Monday and discussed the first and second phase of the ceasefire deal in Gaza.

"Together the two discussed phase one which we are currently still in... and the future of phase two of this plan, which includes the disarming of Hamas, demilitarising Gaza and ensuring Hamas will have no role in the future of Gaza ever again," spokeswoman for the Israeli prime minister's office, Shosh Bedrosian, told journalists. 

"Phase two also includes the establishment of the international stabilisation force and the details of which of course together are being discussed," she added.

The Gaza health ministry said on Monday that only 91 of the 315 bodies released by Israel so far as part of the ceasefire agreement have been identified, due to the condition of the bodies.

Most of the bodies showed signs of torture, Palestinian news agency Wafa reported.

The ministry decided to bury the bodies of 38 Palestinians who were being held by Israel in the Cemetery for the Unknown after it "became impossible to identify them". 

The absence of testing equipment due to the Israeli blockade and the destruction of laboratories in Gaza has made the identification process difficult. 

Israeli politician Moshe Saada, who currently serves as a member of the Knesset for the Likud party, said on Monday that the Military Advocate General’s Office in Israel “has turned into a criminal organisation”, the Times of Israel reported. 

Saada said that everyone, including the prosecutor’s office, "maintained a bond of silence". 

Former military advocate general Major General Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi is currently being investigated for the leak of footage showing Israeli troops raping a Palestinain detainee. 

Saada said that “you can’t have an attorney general who has a conflict of interest and sits with ministers for consultations in the mornings and works on indicting them in the evenings".

Lebanese media reported multiple Israeli air strikes in southern Lebanon on Monday. 

Al Jazeera reported that Israel has carried out a drone attack in an open area in the vicinity of the town of al-Hamira, southern Lebanon. 

Earlier today, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported that one person was killed in an Israeli drone attack in southern Lebanon. 

Despite a ceasefire that came into force in November last year, Israel continues to carry out near-daily strikes in southern Lebanon. At least four people were killed over the weekend in separate Israeli drone strikes in southern Lebanon.

On 30 October, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun instructed the commander of the army to "confront any Israeli incursion into southern Lebanon", after Israeli forces crossed the border, entered a municipal building in the southern town of Blida and killed an employee. 

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam condemned the incident, calling it “a blatant attack on the institutions and sovereignty of the Lebanese state”.

The Israeli military said that it killed two Palestinians on Monday who crossed the Yellow Line demarcating the military’s withdrawal, and approached troops in the southern Gaza Strip.

In a statement on Telegram, the military said the "operatives posed an immediate threat” to the troops, and the Israeli Air Force struck them “to remove the threat to the forces”. 

US envoy Jared Kushner met with Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem on Monday, according to the Israeli Prime Minister's office. 

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is currently meeting in his office in Jerusalem with US President (Donald) Trump's special envoy and son-in-law, Jared Kushner," Netanyahu's office said.

Kushner was accompanied by Steve Witkoff, a US real estate developer, who currently serves as Washington’s special envoy to the Middle East. 

At least 70 settlers stormed the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque on Monday, Al Jazeera Arabic reported, quoting local Palestinian sources. The report said that the settlers moved under the protection of the Israeli forces.

The Palestinian Ministry of Endowments and Religious Affairs said it has recorded 27 Israeli settler intrusions into Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa Mosque courtyard in the last month.

The ministry said in its monthly report that Israeli settlers accompanied by Israeli forces stormed the site, performed Talmudic rituals and dances, and offered plant sacrifices within the mosque courtyards in October.

It noted the involvement of far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, along with a number of Knesset members, in at least one raid in the last month.

The ministry said that Ben Gvir has staged 13 invasions of the complex since he assumed office in 2022, including 10 times since Israel launched its genocide in Gaza in October 2023.

Incursions into the mosque complex by Israeli settlers and forces have occurred almost on a daily basis, with a marked surge during Jewish and national holidays.

In October, a report by the Israeli monitor Ir Amim Association accused the Israeli government of directly violating the status quo at Al-Aqsa Mosque, warning that its continued control constitutes a dangerous escalation.

The status quo is defined by a set of rules and regulations considered a binding international norm and long recognised by world powers. It designates Al-Aqsa Mosque as an exclusively Islamic site, where only Muslims are permitted to worship.

Unrwa senior deputy director for Gaza John Whyte, on Monday, said that Israel is requiring the UN agency to hand over supplies to other relief organisations and remove its branding before permitting entry, The Journal reported. 

The report said that about 5,000 agency-owned trucks are currently blocked from entering the besieged enclave.

“So they’re requiring us to hand our supplies over to other agencies, who then bring them in. But we also have to take the Unrwa logo off everything, which causes us a lot of hassle,” Whyte said.

“They just won’t let anything that’s owned by Unrwa go in,” he added. 

Gaza health ministry on Monday decided to bury the bodies of 38 Palestinians who were being held by Israel after it "became impossible to identify them", Al Jazeera reported.

Israel handed over the bodies of 15 more Palestinian prisoners as part of the exchange deal on Monday. 

The absence of testing equipment due to the Israeli blockade and the destruction of laboratories in Gaza has made the identification process difficult. 

Israeli forces on Monday killed two Palestinians in a drone strike in the town of Bani Suheila, east of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, civil defence agency reported.

The Palestinian health ministry has reported that the death toll in Gaza has risen to 69,169 Palestinians since October 2023, after more dead bodies were found in the debris. 

US intelligence last year gathered information showing Israeli military lawyers warned of "evidence that could support war crimes charges against Israel" for its actions in Gaza, a Reuters investigation has revealed. 

The "most startling" intelligence, shared with senior US officials, raised alarm inside the Biden administration, where debates reportedly centred on whether continued arms support to Israel risked US complicity.

The report said that there were concerns that Israel was "intentionally targeting civilians and humanitarian workers", a potential war crime over which US officials expressed alarm, particularly as the "mounting civilian death toll in Gaza raised concerns that Israel’s operations might breach international legal standards on acceptable collateral damage".

Despite concern, Washington maintained military assistance because intelligence gathered by the US itself "did not prove the Israelis had intentionally killed civilians and humanitarians or blocked aid".

The report cites former officials who said legal advisers within Israel’s army questioned the legality of tactics used in Gaza, which has seen more than 69,000 Palestinians killed since October 2023.
