Resistance vows to avenge Dudeen murder


AL-KHALIL, (PIC)-- The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Thursday murdered Abdul Majid Dudeen, a prominent guerilla leader affiliated with Hamas’ military wing, the Izzidin Al-Qassam Brigades.

Eyewitnesses said Israeli occupation troops, backed by some 16 military vehicles, stormed the small village of Skak, near Dura, 30 kilometers west of al Khalil (Hebron), and killed Dudeen at his hideout.

Local sources said Dudeen was killed during a brief clash with Israeli occupation troops.

The IOF accuses Dudeen of having carried out or masterminded several military operations against Israeli targets both in the West Bank and Palestinian lands occupied in 1948.

Palestinian resistance fighters are constantly targeted by both the Israeli occupation army and the security agencies of the American-backed Palestinian Authority.

Dudeen is survived by his wife and their two sons and three daughters. It is not clear if the Israeli occupation authorities will hand Dudeen’s body over to his family for burial.

Israel normally holds the bodies of Palestinian guerillas killed in battle in order to inflict emotional pain on their families and consequently discourage resistance to the Israeli occupation.

A math teacher, Dudeen had served several years in Israeli jails and detention camps before going underground and joining Hamas's military wing.

He had also served more than 4 years in PA custody in Jericho and Hebron.

'Coronavirus-free' Gaza prepares for the worst

Until now, the besieged Gaza Strip has stayed free of  the novel coronavirus  spreading across the world. As the Gaza Strip has been under a stringent Israeli-led blockade for nearly 13 years, the spread of the coronavirus - officially known as COVID-19 - has become the topic of discussion for many Palestinians, with  some joking  that the blockade was preventing them from being exposed.But as authorities in the coastal Palestinian enclave gear up to contain any potential outbreak, serious questions have arisen about the risks and implications of such a scenario.  But given its already difficult humanitarian situation and high population density, an outbreak in the Gaza Strip could prove to be catastrophic, health officials have warned.  "If the virus enters Gaza and spreads, it will get out of hand," Gaza Ministry of Health spokesperson Majdi Thuhair told Middle East Eye, as he explained that a severe shortage of resources and personnel would make it near impossible

Support striking Palestinian quarry workers demanding their rights from Israeli employer

The workers, organized with the independent union WAC-Ma'an, are demanding an end to exploitation and humiliation, and insist on signing a first collective agreement. Salit Quarries’ main customer is Readymix Industries (Israel).
