🚨 The Awaidat family has confirmed that Thaer Awaidat is in fact alive, but in intensive care. Thaer Awaidat was shot and then abducted by occupation forces on February 6 during the massacre in Aqabat Jaber refugee camp, #Areeha.
Following the massacre, the brutal zionist government falsely informed the Palestinian Ministry of Health that Thaer was martyred. He remains detained by the occupation while undergoing medical treatment.

Occupation forces have mandated strip searches at the #Shuafat checkpoint for the express purpose of collective punishment against Palestinians. Those who refuse to comply are brutally beaten by IOF soldiers.
🚨 A statement issued by the people and youth of #Shuafat camp:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful;
First: We declare civil disobedience throughout the camp and the closure of all roads for the sake of the women of the camp who are assaulted by the dirty hands of the enemies of Allah Almighty.
Second: Whenever we remain silent, they continue to abuse the honorable youth of the camp and search them while they are going to their work and schools to learn, beating them and undressing them in the coldest of weather.
We announce a gathering at the Abu Obeida Mosque this afternoon to close all roads and confront the damned occupation that tortured the camp's women.
Our women are a red line.

The Prisoners’ Organization: The administration of the “israeli” prison “Ofer” informs Palestinian prisoners of its intention to impose further sanctions against them after they carried out acts of disobedience in the prisons. The prisoners confirm that they are continuing with their disobedience despite the escalating threats against them.
The Supreme Administrative Court issued a decision on Monday to immediately release the Lions' Den (and Al-Qassam Brigades) fighter Musab Shtayyeh, declaring his imprisonment illegal. Musab has been imprisoned and tortured—despite health issues—by the traitorous Palestinian Authority since September 2022.
Musab was kidnapped for mistakenly raising his weapon (but not firing) at PA forces, thinking that they were IOF. "Don't leave me here; this is not my place," said Musab in a leaked letter.
Yet, the Authority refuses to release Musab, in defiance of their own courts. It remains to be seen whether they will follow through with the decision or continue to drag their feet.

🚨 The illegitimate Knesset, in a pathetic attempt to quell the rising tide of resistance in #AlQuds and elsewhere in Palestine, approved today a law that would strip citizenship from Palestinians and their family members if one of them carried out a resistance operation. Further, the family would be forcibly deported from their own land; Ben-Gvir suggests "to Gaza", while others suggest PA-controlled areas.
This move is highly illegal, reinforcing the ethnic cleansing policy and waging collective punishment for the "crime" of righteous resistance amidst an existential liberation struggle.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
We in the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) condemn in the strongest terms the approval of the so-called zionist "Knesset" of a racist occupation law aimed at deporting the prisoners of Al-Quds and occupied Palestine in 1948, under the so-called law of withdrawing "nationality" or permanent residency under the pretext of their resistance to the occupation and its racist policies.
We consider it a persistent violation of the rights of our Palestinian people in their land and their historical homeland and an overt Judaizing occupation policy to forcibly deport our people. This requires an international movement to reject these racist occupation laws and the undergoing of the necessary punitive measures against the zionist entity for its grave and repeated violations of the most basic standards of human rights.
We affirm that our people in Al-Quds and our lands occupied in 1948 will remain attached to their land and homeland as well as an integral component of the Palestinian people. Their identity and their civilization extends throughout history. They will not be intimidated by arbitrary racist laws and will continue their struggle against the occupation and its fascist policies, remaining a protective shield for this blessed land and our and Islamic and Christian sanctities.

Saleh Al-Arouri, Al-Qassam Brigades founder and commander of the resistance in the West Bank:
"We are fighting a liberation war in the West Bank. History will not show mercy to anyone who does not resist. The entity is vulnerable. The escalation of resistance is a duty."
"It is in the current interest of the resistance to ignite everywhere. Our sword will remain unsheathed in Gaza; it will intervene and will not delay. Resistance is always advancing [even if you do not see]."

🚨 The illegitimate "Knesset" approves a preliminary version of the "disengagement" law, which would allow the return of settlers to the areas vacated by "israel" in 2005.
🚨 The occupation has announced that they will begin demolishing the house of the heroic martyr Mohammed Al-Jabari within the coming hours.
Mohammed carried out a shooting operation in the settlement of "Kiryat Arba’" in late October 2022 in which he killed one zionist and injured several others.
Palestinian youth immediately call on the people of #AlKhalil and all those able to close off roads and protect the house.

🦁 Lions' Den statement:
—
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
"O believers! If you stand up for Allah, He will help you and make your steps firm."
This is the truth of Allah Almighty.
Sister, we did not live, nor did we exist, if the assault passed you unnoticed.
Sister, do not panic, for your right is in the necks of the free and only the free.
The demolition of homes in Al-Quds will be met by the demolition of the security of the occupation and its settlers in every street of our proud [West] Bank. The wicked has become clearly separated from the good, and the men have become clearly separated from those who are like men. Oh makers of glory, oh men of Al-Quds, oh our loved ones in the Old City and all its neighborhoods; oh men of glory in Al-Tur, Silwan, the revolutionary neighborhood, Wadi Al-Jawz, Wadi Al-Rababa; O knights of truth in Jabal Al-Mukabber, Beit Hanina, Beit Safafa, Al-Issawiya, neighborhoods of Sheikh Jarrah and Sour Baher; O those who refuse to submit in Sawahera, Shuafat and Shuafat refugee camp, Abu Dis, Al-Eizariya, Anata, Hizma, and Al-Ram.
We call on you, O crown of our heads, to light as many tires as possible in all areas of Al-Quds, so that it becomes a thick black cloud that expresses our intense anger. Be confident that our enemy is a coward whose heart is shaken by a small child carrying a stone. Declare civil disobedience, set tires on fire, close the streets, destroy surveillance cameras. Destabilize the security of their outposts and places of their presence, say "Allahu Akbar" in the name of Allah. Besiege them, beat them, and confuse their soldiers.
Do not let them find one of you alone, for by God, no one will be spared from their evil. We welcome death rather than accepting a life of humiliation and shame.
Either a life that pleases the friend, or a death that enrages the enemy.
We pledge to you, sister—and to our sisters in Al-Quds—a pledge from the Lions' Den that we will take revenge for you, return to you what’s rightfully yours doubly, and cut off the hand that hurt you. We are with you, and our hearts are with you. We will fight with you at all times. Although we are here (Nablus) and you are there (Al-Quds), our men are deployed in the West Bank and the occupied interior, and you will only hear what pleases your hearts.
Let Friday be the first day of escalation and anger. Let it be a day of fire and flames. Let it be a pivotal and historical stage that will be recorded in the history of your struggles.
We are waiting for you to answer the call, to prove to the whole world that Al-Quds is the key to peace and the key to war.
Your brothers, the Lions' Den groups.
