Five more tragic deaths in Israel-Palestine. As Palestinian anger grows against Israeli forces that have killed 45 people so far this year, demolished 34 Palestinian homes, conducted over 1,500 raids on Palestinian spaces, arrested 638 Palestinians, destroyed olive trees, shot at fishermen, and continue to hold 4,700 political prisoners – today one Palestinian was killed after an alleged stabbing attempt (according to the Israeli military – this is unconfirmed), another died in prison of medical neglect, and a third was killed after taking 2 Israeli lives in a car ramming incident. The Palestinian death toll in 2023 stands at 45; 9 Israelis have also been killed (all by lone Palestinian attackers.)
