HEBRON – Ma’an – Large crowds of people from the town of Beit Ummar and the surrounding areas today, Saturday, buried the body of the martyr Ibrahim Hamza Ibrahim Zaaqiq, 22 years old, to his final resting place in the town’s cemetery.
The media activist in Beit Ummar, Muhammad Ayyad Awad, reported that the funeral procession set off from the Beit Ummar Grand Mosque, passing through the streets of the town. The participants in the funeral procession chanted national slogans calling for closing ranks and adhering to national unity, which is the basis of the Palestinian people’s struggles in confronting the occupation.
It is noteworthy that the martyr Al-Zaaqiq is the seventh martyr in Beit Ummar since the beginning of the aggression on the Gaza Strip last October, as he was shot in the head last night by the occupation army. He had been released from the occupation prisons about two weeks ago after being detained for six months.

Ramallah- Ma’an- The Palestinian National Initiative Movement condemned on Saturday “the brutal Israeli attack on Yemeni civilian facilities, which left a number of civilian martyrs and wounded and caused massive destruction to civilian facilities.”
Dr. Mustafa Barghouti, Secretary-General of the Initiative Movement, said in a statement received by Ma’an: “The reckless Israeli attack expresses the extent of the Israeli government’s hatred for the Yemeni people’s solidarity with the Palestinian people and against the war of genocide waged by the occupation government on the Gaza Strip.”
Barghouti added, “With its barbaric war, Israel is dragging the entire region into a comprehensive regional explosion.”
He stressed that “the aggression on Yemen will only increase the valiant Yemeni people’s solidarity and support for the just struggle of the Palestinian people for freedom,” stressing that the decisions of the International Court of Justice are the best evidence that Israel is acting as a rogue entity outsi
de international laws.

Ramallah – Ma’an – Safaa Barghouti, the daughter of prisoner Abdullah Barghouti, confirmed on Saturday that her father was severely beaten in the Israeli Shata prison and suffered several fractures in his rib cage, according to what was reported by Palestinian media.
It is noteworthy that Israel considers the release of Abdullah Barghouti, the leader of the Qassam Brigades who is sentenced to 67 life sentences, in any potential prisoner deal, to be tantamount to the release of ‘another Sinwar.’
Abdullah Barghouti is the prisoner about whom the officer in charge of his file in the military court in Bethlehem said that if Israel was forced to leave the Palestinian territories for any reason, it would take him with it. He is considered one of the most dangerous Palestinian resistance fighters against the Israeli occupation; he revived the Qassam Brigades in 2000 after the assassination of its leader Yahya Ayyash in 1996.
The reason for his sentence of 67 life sentences and 5,200 years in prison is that he was
accused of carrying out 7 suicide operations in which 67 Israelis were killed and more than 500 others were injured.
Abdullah Barghouti spent more than 20 years in Israeli prisons, as he was arrested by special forces in the city of Al-Bireh in the occupied West Bank on March 5, 2003.
