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

Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency on Monday reported that one person was killed in the Israeli drone attack in southern Lebanon. 

An Israeli drone attack targeted a car near al-Bisariya in southern Lebanon, the report mentioned. 

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”.

Israel on Monday handed over the bodies of 15 Palestinian prisoners as part of the exchange deal, Al Jazeera Arabic reported. 

The report said that Palestinian families were identifying the bodies of their kin through remaining distinctive marks on their bodies or clothes they were wearing before they went missing.

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

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (Cair) on Monday condemned the attack by Israeli settlers on Palestinian villagers, activists and journalists during the olive harvest in the occupied West Bank.

Settlers reportedly used sticks, clubs and stones against Palestinians harvesting olives, in which a Reuters news agency photographer and security adviser were wounded. 

Cair called on the US government to renew sanctions earlier this month, warning that unchecked settler violence continues to endanger Palestinians and those documenting the effects of the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territory. 

Photojournalist Raneen Sawafta on Monday said settlers attacked journalists covering the olive harvest in the occupied West Bank, Reuters news agency reported. 

“We were running away and the terrain was mountainous. I was wearing the press vest and they were hitting me in the parts that were not covered by the vest,” she said.

The attack took place near the Palestinian village of Beita, where settlers armed with sticks, clubs and rocks targeted villagers, activists and reporters.

Two Reuters employees, a journalist and a security adviser, were among those injured, the report said. 

Al Jazeera cameraman Loay al-Saeed described being chased by masked men. 

The United Arab Emirates will not join the international stabilisation force for Gaza because it lacks a clear framework, APF reported on Monday citing a senior official. 

"The UAE does not yet see a clear framework for the stability force, and under such circumstances will probably not participate in such a force," presidential advisor Anwar Gargash told a forum in Abu Dhabi. 

The Israeli army on Monday carried out demolition and explosion operations on residential buildings in the eastern areas of Khan Younis city, south of the Strip, Al Jazeera Arabic reported. 

Israeli demolition operations, which have been noticeably increasing in pace and intensity recently, target every two-storey building or house, according to engineer Hamdan Radwan, mayor of Bani Suheila in eastern Khan Younis. 

The Israeli army on Sunday announced that it will begin extensive military exercises across the West Bank and the Jordan Valley, along the border with Jordan, starting Monday morning. 

In a statement on Telegram, the army said the exercise will include intensive movement of troops and military vehicles in the areas.

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

The Knesset on Monday will vote in the first reading on a bill to impose the death penalty on Palestinian prisoners, Israel Hayom reported. 

The legislation, championed by far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, was pushed through the Knesset’s National Security Committee on 3 November, drawing widespread condemnation from human rights groups.

If passed, the law would allow Israeli courts to impose the death penalty on Palestinians convicted of killing Israelis on "nationalistic grounds".

The legislation does not apply to Israelis who kill Palestinians under similar circumstances.

New evidence regarding the torture of Palestinian prisoners whose mutilated bodies were returned by Israel was presented at the International Criminal Court by a legal team representing the victims of the genocide in Gaza.

Al Jazeera Arabic reported that evidence regarding the targeting of journalists was added to the ongoing series of legal efforts to prosecute Israel in the International court since 2008.

According to the report, documented medical evidence was presented by doctors and forensic experts through detailed reports, photos, videos, and family testimonies. 

Good morning,

We are on day 31 after a fragile ceasefire was agreed upon to end Israel's two-year genocidal war on Gaza. The truce has been violated by Israel many times as it launches new operations and continues to strike Gaza, while settlers displace Palestinians from the West Bank. 

Here are the major developments from the last few hours: 

• Israeli military has announced that it will begin large-scale military exercises throughout the West Bank and the Palestinian Jordan Valley on the border with Jordan.

• In his second visit in three weeks, US envoy Jared Kushner arrived in Israel to follow up on Trump's plan for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

• Israeli warplanes targeted the eastern areas of Gaza City early Monday morning. 

• A Palestinian man was wounded after being assaulted by Israeli soldiers at the Al-Zaim checkpoint, east of occupied Jerusalem.

• Israeli forces stormed the town of Al-Ubaidiya, east of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank, launched raids and arrested several citizens.

• Israeli Broadcasting Authority has reported that Americans are pressuring Israel to begin implementing the second phase of Trump's ceasefire plan.

Our live blog will shortly be closing until tomorrow morning.

Here are the day's key developments:

• Israeli forces arrested 442 Palestinians, including 33 children, in October, according to a joint statement by the four rights groups.

• The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office confirms that the remains of a captive’s body received from Hamas belong to Israeli soldier Hadar Goldin.

• A fifth Palestine Action-affiliated prisoner has launched a hunger strike over her detention conditions and the UK government's ban on the direct action group.

• Turkey is working to ensure the safe passage of some 200 civilians trapped in tunnels in Gaza, after having facilitated the return of a deceased Israeli soldier killed there more than a decade ago, a senior Turkish official said.

• The Palestinian health ministry said that Israeli strikes in Gaza have killed one person and injured five others in the past 24 hours. 

• Israeli settlers have started setting up a new outpost in the town of Anata, east of occupied East Jerusalem, the Bedouin rights group Al-Baidar reported.

• One person was killed in the earlier Israeli attack on south Lebanon, Al Jazeera reported, citing the Health Emergency Operations Centre of the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health.

• An Israeli military court postponed proceedings in the case of a 16-year-old Palestinian-American detained without trial in a notorious Israeli prison to 15 December, effectively extending his imprisonment at least until then, NPR reported.

• The former Israeli military lawyer who stepped down after confirming her involvement in leaking footage showing soldiers abusing a Palestinian prisoner inside the Sde Teiman detention camp attempted suicide this morning, said the police commissioner.

The former Israeli military lawyer, Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, who stepped down after confirming her involvement in leaking footage showing soldiers abusing a Palestinian prisoner inside the notorious Sde Teiman detention camp, attempted suicide this morning, Police Commissioner Chief Superintendent Danny Levi says.

In the footage, heavily armed Israeli soldiers can be seen grabbing and leading away a blindfolded Palestinian prisoner before surrounding him with riot shields to obscure their gang rape.

The Palestinian man, who, according to some reports, has since been sent back to Gaza, suffered an injury to his anus, a ruptured bowel, lung damage, and broken ribs.

Netanyahu described the leak as the most “severe public relations attack” on Israel.

A fifth Palestine Action-affiliated prisoner has launched a hunger strike over her detention conditions and the UK government's ban on the direct action group.

The 29-year-old prisoner, named T Hoxha, has joined four other prisoners in a rolling hunger strike launched on 2 November over what they describe as "systematic abuse" by the prison authorities.

Qesser Zurah and Amu Gibb, prisoners currently held at HMP Bronzefield, launched their strikes on Sunday. Heba Muraisi, who is held at HMP New Hall, joined on Monday, and Jon Cink, also held at Bronzefield, refused food on Thursday.

Hoxha is one of the "Filton 24" - activists from the recently proscribed direct action group Palestine Action who were arrested on terrorism charges.

Turkey is working to ensure the safe passage of some 200 civilians trapped in tunnels in Gaza, after having facilitated the return of a deceased Israeli soldier killed there more than a decade ago, a senior Turkish official said late on Sunday.

Turkey, the senior official said, "successfully facilitated the return of Hadar Goldin's remains to Israel after 11 years" after "intensive efforts (reflecting) Hamas' clear commitment to the ceasefire."

"At the same time, we are working to ensure the safe passage of some 200 Gazan civilians currently trapped in the tunnels," the official told Reuters.

Turkey was a signatory to last month's Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal, backed by US President Donald Trump.
