West Bank, Ramallah, Silwad 30 October, 2025
At least 1 martyred
On October 30, 2025, Israeli soldiers killed the boy Yamen Samed Hamed, at the entrance of the town of Silwad, east of Ramallah. The occupation forces stormed the town of Silwad and confrontations broke out at the entrance to the town, during which they fired live bullets and poison gas and sound bombs, which led to the injury of the child Yamen Samed Hamed (15 years old) with live bullets. Israeli forces prevented medics from reaching him, leaving the boy bleeding on the ground for an extended period. He was later transported to a government hospital in Ramallah, where he succumbed to his injuries. His dead was announced at the Palestine Medical Complex. **Investigation of the Defense for Children - Palestine:** "Yamen Hamed Yousef Hamed, 15, was shot and killed by Israeli forces around 10:30 p.m. on October 30 at the southern entrance to the Palestinian town of Silwad, northeast of Ramallah, according to documentation collected by Defense for Children International - Palestine. Yamen and his friends were walking near the southern entrance, which has been closed for nearly two years by order of the Israeli forces after they erected earth mounds there. Yamen and his friends were surprised to find a group of Israeli soldiers hiding behind the earth mounds, after which they fired directly at the children with about ten bullets from a distance of 50 meters (164 feet) away. Yamen Hamed was shot in the chest and immediately fell to the ground, bleeding for about half an hour, surrounded by Israeli occupation forces who opened fire and prevented residents and an ambulance from approaching him. Yamen's father reported that he tried to reach the scene to check on his son, but soldiers prevented him from advancing and fired warning shots at him and the medical team to force them to retreat. The ambulance managed to approach Yamen and pronounced him dead before his body was transferred to the Palestine Medical Complex in Ramallah. Upon arrival at the hospital, Yamen's father reported that his son's body showed clear signs of assault, including fractures in his fingers and toes, indicating he may have been subjected to torture, violence, or dragging while in the soldiers' custody." **Name of the martyr:** Yamen Samed Youssef Hamed, 15 y/o

Efi Feldbaum funeral

Jerusalem/Al-Quds, Israel, Mount Herzl Military Cemetery 29 October, 2025
Efi (Yona Efraim) Feldbaum, an Israeli soldier killed at the end of October 2025 in Rafah, was one of the founders of "Uriah Force" - same destruction-driven, heavy machinery West Bank settler militia, working in Gaza to "flatten" the Strip, and using Palestinians as human shield, as his also killed friend Avraham Azulai. Feldbaum lived in the terrorist outpost of Zayit Ra'anan("Fresh Olive" in English), northwest of Ramallah. At his military funeral, held in Jerusalem, friends and relatives recalled his enthusiastic attitude towards the genocide. Years ago, Feldbaum's gun license was revoked after he used it to threaten Palestinians in the West Bank. The Shin Bet proposed to have it renewed in return for his collaboration, which he claimed to have refused. This will serve as a running thread about him. I will add more tweets in the coming days. Israel Gantz, head of the Binyamin Regional Council and chairman of the Yesha Council, mourned his death: *“Efi fought on the front line of the war in Gaza and continued even after the ceasefire was declared, which Hamas terrorists repeatedly violated. On behalf of all Binyamin residents, I send my condolences to his wife Shulamit, their children, and the entire family. Thanks to Efi’s bravery and sacrifice, the people of Israel will prevail. The people of Israel do not fear a long road.”* **Funerals:** At the funeral, hundreds gathered to honor Feldbaum. Master Sergeant (Res.) Yona Efraim “Efi” Feldbaum, 37, from Zayit Raanan in the Binyamin region, was laid to rest at Mount Herzl Military Cemetery in Jerusalem. Feldbaum was part of the Nahal Brigade Combat Team, operating in the Rafah area to "destroy Hamas terror infrastructure" east of the yellow line in territory under Israeli control. According to IDF, his "unit targeted a section of the tunnel network in the Jenina neighborhood when enemy fire struck an armored engineering vehicle, killing him. Moments later, Hamas launched several anti-tank missiles at another IDF vehicle, which sustained no injuries".

Blinding of a schoolboy in Beit Awwa

West Bank, Beit Awwa, Al-Khalil/Hebron 27 October, 2025
on Monday, October 27, 14-year-old Nazih Masalma from the West Bank village of Beit Awwa was severely injured by Israali soldiers while waiting with his sister for the school bus. The parents, Iyad, 45, and Rula, 34, were both home when their two children left for school, waiting for the school bus. According to his family, a convoy of Israeli army vehicles passed by, and a soldier in the last jeep fired a tear-gas canister at Nazih from close range striking him directly in the face. The impact destroyed his right eye and seriously injured his face and jaw. His sister fainted, and Nazih was evacuated unconscious to several hospitals, where doctors removed his eye and performed multiple surgeries. Nazih Masalma was a student at Beit Awwa Secondary School for Boys. He was taken to Al-Ahli Hospital in Hebron for treatment, where his injuries were described as critical. His sister also suffered from tear gas inhalation and was transferred to Dura Governmental Hospital for treatment. The family lives in poor conditions, and Nazih has since become withdrawn, avoiding light and human contact. They say he refuses to go near the spot where the incident occurred. Neighbors reportedly have camera footage but are afraid to give it to the army. The IDF spokesperson said the allegation was “not known” to them, raising the possibility that the soldiers involved did not report the incident. The family is seeking help for Nazih’s long recovery, including obtaining an artificial eye. ![](https://english.wafa.ps/image/NewsThumbImg/Default/a7d07467-df7a-4cbf-a2fe-fbb9a343bbe4.png)
