Israeli Massacre - Jenin and Nablus

Gulf News, Dubai, May 4, 2002 

As many as 650 Palestinians were martyred and seven others injured in Jenin and Nablus, said Riadh Al Zaanoon, Palestinian Minister of Health.

"Only seven Palestinians were injured in Jenin and Nablus but those killed are 650. The Israelis did not want to see wounded persons in the Jenin refugee camp. All what they wanted is death, death and more deaths," Al Zaanoon was quoted by the Arabic daily Al Bayan yesterday.

"As the Israelis invaded the camp after a heroic steadfastness and the Palestinian resistance ran out of their ammunition, there were may casualties who would have recovered if they have been medically treated. But Israeli forces intentions were clear and decisive; there should be no wounded people in the camp. So they killed them in cold blood, brutality and in violation of all laws and ethics which forbids killing a wounded person."

"The crime which should be made clear to the world is that of the 380 martyrs in Jenin alone, 280 or two-thirds were women and children. If they regard men as a threat, why should women and children be massacred in these numbers?"

"Another crime is the destruction of the camp, rendering its residents homeless. Hundreds of men above 45 years were separated from their families as they were dispersed to different villages."

"Yet another crime is of 13,000 residents in the camp, more than 2,000 were detained."

"Since the outbreak of the Palestinian intifada up to Israel's incursion into Jenin and Nablus, 1,500 Palestinians were killed and 35,800 injured. As Israel invaded Jenin and Nablus, 650 more were added to the death toll in 20 days," Al Zaanoon said."

This report looks specifically at the actions of the IDF in Jenin and Nablus between April and June 2002. It examines allegations of unlawful killings; the use of "human shields"; torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment of people detained; blocking of medical assistance, food and water; and the destruction of property, including damage or destruction of the civil infrastructure, commercial buildings, historic and religious buildings and homes. The report also reflects the means employed by the State of Israel to keep its human rights practices shielded from internal and external scrutiny.
