The Palestinian Junaidi family had a plant nursery in Deir Sharaf near Nablus in Palestine’s occupied West Bank, but illegal Jewish settlers burnt it in an overnight attack on September 8. **Other incidents in the same area** The settlers also set fire to lands planted with olive trees in Yatma village, south of Nablus. At the same time, the settlers launched attacks on citizens' vehicles south of Nablus, causing damage to some of them. **Previous settler attack:** On January 16, 2024, Israeli settlers at night set fire to several Palestinian-owned heavy machinery and vandalized the same plantation nursery near the village of Deir Sharaf, belonging to Al-Junaidi family. The owner of plantation nursery, Maher al-Junaidi, was informed of the attack by the security guard at the plantation, who was forced to go into hiding at the time of the attack in fear for his life. The settlers damaged trees, set fire to two bulldozers, a truck and a forklift, causing severe losses and damage. On 5 september, 2025, in the night, at around two o’clock in the morning, Jewish settlers raided a pine nursery located at the entrance of the villages of Yatma and Qabalan, south of Nablus. The assailants destroyed all the facilities, uprooted and broke dozens of trees, and damaged the crops, causing considerable losses.

On September 8, a group of Palestinians from the Jenin refugee camp attempted to return to their homes, which are currently occupied by Israeli forces. Soldiers opened fire on them. Israeli troops surrounded a group of citizens in Al-Bishr neighborhood as they tried to reach their homes to check on them and collect personal belongings. Soldiers fired live bullets at the group, killing a child and seriously injuring two young men. A girl was also hurt after falling while being chased by soldiers. The soldiers arrested several citizens and took them to a military barracks inside the camp. They also set fire to a house while firing heavily in the area. Israeli forces shot and killed 14-year-old Islam Abdel Aziz Noah Majarmah, while at least two others were critically wounded and several more arrested at gunpoint. In total, four injuries were recorded: one in serious condition and another moderate. The Palestine Red Crescent Society confirmed that a 12-year-old girl suffered a hand injury while being chased, and a 17-year-old boy was shot in the shoulder at the entrance to the camp. Both were taken to hospital. The Red Crescent also treated a 22-year-old man who was shot in the abdomen inside the camp. Later, Wissam Bakr, director of Jenin Governmental Hospital, confirmed the death of a second child: 14-year-old Mohammad Sari Omar Masqala (Alawneh), who succumbed to his wounds after being shot near the entrance of camp. **Names of the young martyrs:** 1. Islam Abdulaziz Nouh Majarmah (14) 2. Muhammad Sari Omar Masqala “Alawneh” (14) **Report of Defense for Children - Palestine** "Islam Abdulaziz Nouh Majarmah and Mohammad Seri Omar Masqala, both 14 years old, were shot and killed by Israeli forces in separate but related incidents in the early evening of September 8 outside of Jenin refugee camp in the northern occupied West Bank, according to documentation collected by Defense for Children International - Palestine. Both boys were killed near Jenin Governmental Hospital, close to the entrance of Jenin refugee camp, which has been under Israeli military siege since January 21, 2025, during which Israeli forces have forcibly displaced all residents of the camp. “Islam and Mohammad were targeted by Israeli forces with lethal force when they posed no threat at all to the soldiers carrying out military operations in their community,” said Ayed Abu Eqtaish, accountability program director at DCIP. “Israeli forces have repeatedly targeted Jenin and Jenin refugee camp, including a siege that has continued since January, with complete impunity.” Islam went to Jenin refugee camp with his parents and siblings to check on their home, which had been destroyed by Israeli forces since Israeli military operations forcibly displaced all Palestinian residents of Jenin refugee camp during a large-scale operation that began on January 21. On their way back to Qabatiya around 5:45 p.m., where the family has been staying since their displacement, an Israeli military vehicle approached them at a high speed. Soldiers exited the vehicle, then opened fire toward the family from a distance of 40 to 50 meters (131 to 164 feet) away, striking Islam in the back with a bullet that exited through the left side of his chest. Islam’s uncle carried him to Jenin Governmental Hospital, located just a few meters away, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Mohammad, a resident of the city of Jenin, was shot by Israeli forces around 6:30 p.m. on September 8 while standing near the earthen barrier at the main entrance to Jenin refugee camp, according to documentation collected by DCIP. Mohammad sustained two gunshot wounds, one to his left hand and a second that entered his right side and exited under his right armpit. The shots were fired from a distance of about 50 to 70 meters (164 to 230 feet) away by soldiers concealed behind the earthen barrier. Mohammad was rushed into surgery at Jenin Governmental Hospital, but he was declared dead at 7 p.m. **Context:** These killings came hours after a Palestinian shooting attack earlier in the day at a bus stop in occupied East Jerusalem, which killed six Israelis and injured 15. In response, the Israeli army expanded operations across the West Bank, imposing lockdowns, setting up checkpoints, and carrying out house raids and arrests in Ramallah, Jerusalem, Jenin, Qabatiya, Tulkarm, and Bethlehem. In Biddu, soldiers used live fire and sound grenades during raids, though no injuries were reported. With the killing of these two children, the death toll in Jenin Governorate has risen to 47 martyrs since the start of the Israeli occupation’s aggression against the city and its camp on January 21, an offensive that has also struck surrounding towns and villages. Israeli forces have killed 40 Palestinian children in the occupied West Bank in 2025, including 14 children from Jenin, according to documentation collected by DCIP.

**On September 8**, 2 Palestinian gunmen opened fire at Ramot Junction in the illegal Israeli settlement of Ramot Alon in occupied East Jerusalem.

We must study, investigate, and draw the necessary lessons. We are in the midst of a day of intensive activity across all sectors; we are expanding the operation to defeat Hamas and are acting offensively and proactively everywhere. The terrorist was neutralized by an IDF soldier from the Hashmonaim Brigade and an additional civilian. This is an example of the operational edge expected from IDF soldiers. Great appreciation is due for the composure and determination they demonstrated. I extend my deepest condolences to the families of the victims and wish a speedy recovery to the wounded."* The Hasmonean Brigade is the first all-Haredi combat unit, funded in 2025, and commanded by Col.

It's a a civil, non-violent flotilla initiative launched in mid-2025 to break the Israeli naval blockade of Gaza, deliver humanitarian aid, and open a solidarity corridor. It's organized by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, Global Movement to Gaza, Maghreb Sumud Flotilla, and Sumud Nusantara in order to unite Western activists and Arab/Muslim solidarity movements. Despite harassment, Israeli attacks, and political pressure, the flotilla has drawn major global attention to Gaza’s isolation. “Sumud” means steadfastness in Arabic. The activists, doctors, artists, and volunteers comes from ~44 countries. With notable figures: Greta Thunberg, Spanish politician Ada Colau, and activists from the Arab world. Different departure: from late August (31 in Barcelona) to current September 2025 from Genoa, Catania, Syros (Greece), Tunis, Lisbon.

In a statement, Crosetto said he had redirected an Italian navy ship to head towards the flotilla to offer assistance to Italian citizens on board - and Israel had been informed : *"Regarding the attack suffered in recent hours by the Sumud Flotilla vessels, which also include Italian citizens, carried out using drones by currently unidentified perpetrators, we can only express the strongest condemnation. In a democracy, even demonstrations and protests must be protected when they are conducted in compliance with international law and without resorting to violence,” (...) “To ensure assistance to the Italian citizens on the ‘Flotilla,’ this morning at 3:50 a.m … I spoke with the Prime Minister and authorized the immediate intervention of the Italian Navy's multi-purpose frigate Fasan, which was sailing north of Crete as part of Operation Mare Sicuro.

Elaph, Mada Masr 1. On September 29, Turkish filmmaker Necmi Sancak says his debut feature Ayse was pulled from theatrical release in Turkiye after he joined the Global Sumud Flotilla in protesting Israel’s blockade of Gaza.  **2. On September 30,** the X account of Israel Foreign Ministry released a framing reflects Israeli hasbara (propaganda) intended to delegitimize the Global Sumud Flotilla and justify future measures against it. Exposed (according to Israeli sources): Official Hamas documents allegedly found in the Gaza Strip — and revealed for the first time — are claimed to prove Hamas’s direct involvement in the funding and execution of the “Sumud” flotilla to Gaza. According to this narrative, the documents show links between flotilla leaders and the Hamas-aligned PCPA (Palestinian Conference for Palestinians Abroad), which Israel designated as a terrorist organization in 2021. One document is described as a 2021 letter from Ismail Haniyeh endorsing the PCPA, while another allegedly lists PCPA operatives such as Zaher Birawi (UK) and Saif Abu Kashk (Spain). Israeli reports further claim that Abu Kashk, CEO of a Spanish company called Cyber Neptune, controls ships participating in the flotilla, presenting them as effectively owned by Hamas. The statement and attached pictures and documents were denounced by Muhammed Shehada (@muhammadshehad2), from the Middle East Human Rights Monitor, Post *"Israel's gov is putting a target on the back of @GretaThunberg; labelling her & the entire flotilla as "Hamas" ahead of the flotilla's imminent arrival to Gaza's sea space.Today, every single Israeli newspaper has published this faked doc to preempt Israel's planned attack on the ships.Reminder: Israel published 2 similar "Hamas documents" last year in Bild & the Jewish Chronicle only for us to learn that both documents were total fakes! Israel similarly published fake "Hamas documents" ahead of the assassination of Anas al-Sharif, Mahmoud Shabat & other journalists!"* 3. On October 4, while 328 activists remain in detention in the Prison fo Ketziot, Itamar Ben Gvir proudly admits on his Facebook account that the flotilla activists have been abused in Israel's Ketziot Concentration Camp. Full translation: *"This morning I see the claims in the world media about the conditions in which Greta Thunberg and the "flotilla activists" were imprisoned - and it is important for me to say it very clearly: I am proud of the Prison Service fighters who acted in accordance with the policy that Commissioner Kobi Yaakobi and I outlined. I was there, on their ships - I saw neither aid nor humanitarians. I saw one baby formula and a big festival of people who masquerade as human rights activists, and in reality came to support terrorism and have fun at our expense. I came to visit Ketziot prison, and I was proud that we treat the "flotilla activists" as supporters of terrorism, anyone who supports terrorism is a terrorist, and deserves the conditions of terrorists.
