HRF Files Criminal Complaint Against Ofer Winter in Italy | The Hind Rajab Foundation (2026-03-23)

https://www.hindrajabfoundation.org/posts/from-2014-atrocities-to-genocide-advocacy-hrf-files-case-against-ofer-winter-in-italy
———

>> The Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) filed a criminal complaint this morning in Italy against former Israeli military commander Ofer Winter, alleging responsibility for war crimes committed during the 2014 Operation Protective Edge and incitement to commit genocide in relation to the current war in #Gaza.

>> … The complaint comes as Winter is expected to travel to Italy next week to participate in public events ...

>> The filing asserts that Italian authorities have both jurisdiction and a legal obligation to act. Under international law and its incorporation into domestic legal frameworks, states must investigate and prosecute individuals suspected of war crimes when present on their territory.

>> The complaint therefore calls for the opening of a formal criminal investigation.

Four Palestinians were martyred and several others were injured on Sunday afternoon, the third day of the Eid al-Fitr holiday, following an Israeli airstrike that targeted a police vehicle in an-Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.

The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) reporter said that an Israeli drone struck a police vehicle at the “Abu Sarrar” rotary inside the camp, killing four people and injuring others.

Gaza’s interior ministry said that Israeli aircraft targeted a police vehicle while it was on duty in the central governorate, resulting in martyrs and injuries.

About a week ago, a similar attack targeted a police vehicle in the al-Zawaida area in central Gaza, claiming the lives of nine citizens and injuring many others.

The Israeli occupation army persists in its daily ceasefire violations in Gaza, targeting areas with artillery, drone strikes, and gunfire.

thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have truly been a reason for my children’s happiness. Because of your kindness and support, I was able to bring them small moments of joy during these difficult days.

Even though we haven’t received donations for some time, we deeply appreciate every bit of help we got before — it meant so much to us.

But we still need your help. Life is still very hard for us, and your continued support means everything. Please don’t forget us, and if you can, continue to stand by our side. Even a small donation can make a big difference for my family.

If you would like to help me, the link is in my bio, or you can message me privately. 🤍

Les sionistes sont des monstres inhumains génocidaires irrécupérables : ils torturent un enfant d'un an et demi devant son père pour lui faire avouer on ne sait quoi.

> ⭕️ Israeli occupation forces torture toddler in Gaza to force confession from detained father
——
Israeli occupation forces detained a 1.5-year-old child, Kareem Abu Nassar, in central Gaza and subjected him to abuse in front of his father, Osama Abu Nassar, in an attempt to extract confessions.

The father was stopped near Al-Maghazi during military operations, separated from his son, stripped, and interrogated at a checkpoint.

According to medical reports, the child was tortured while in custody, including being burned with cigarettes and pierced with a metal nail in his leg, as soldiers pressured the father during interrogation. The incident occurred after the family was caught in gunfire near their home.

Kareem was released after approximately 10 hours and returned to his family through the International Red Cross, while his father remains in detention.

@palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@fedibird.com

Translator’s Note: This interview between Bilal Abu Daqa and Sheikh Ahmed Yassin was conducted just a few months before the latter’s martyrdom on 22 March 2004, when he was “killed by an Israeli helicopter attack […] while he was being wheeled out of a mosque.” Specifically, Sheikh Yassin was exiting the al-Mujamma’ al-Islami mosque when “Israeli helicopter gunships fired three rockets” at the 66-year-old Yassin. It was published in Arabic on 15 November 2003 (and conducted a few days before, likely 9-11 November 2003). It has, hitherto, not been translated into English.

To appreciate the interview, it is important to have some understanding of the context in which it was conducted, in the midst of the Second Intifada. In between 29 June and 21 August 2003, a truce (hudna) was declared by all resistance factions. This was declared for three months but lasted only 52 days. The Ariel Sharon government broke the truce by continuing its assassination campaign.

Tensions rose further in August 2003 when Hizbu’llah Unit 1800 (viz., the Palestinian Unit) commander Ali Hussein Salih was assassinated when the occupation forces exploded his car in the heart of Hizbu’llah’s stronghold in Southern Lebanon.

It is also notable that the interviewer, Bilal Abu Daqa, mentions a joint effort between Hamas and Hizbu’llah to negotiate a prisoner’s release. This concerns negotiations that culminated in the 29 January 2004 prisoner exchange, where Hizbu’llah secured the release of hundreds of prisoners from the occupation’s prisons, in return for captives and the remains of solders. Palestinian factions, including Hamas, submitted lists of detainees to Hizbu’llah during the negotiation process, as Hizbu’llah acted as the negotiating party on behalf of multiple detainees held by the occupation. The occupation released 400 Palestinian prisoners along with 23 Lebanese and other detainees in exchange for Elhanan Tannenbaum and the bodies of three occupation soldiers. The arrangement was German-mediated.

Also in August 2003, the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) froze the civil service association, Al-Salah Society’s, accounts, claiming that “al-Salah was a front for Hamas.” Furthermore, the United States Department of Treasury accused al-Salah of employing “a number of Hamas military wing members.” Since 80% of the association’s estimated $5 million budget came from external donors who relied on the banking system to transfer the funds, the freeze was devastating. This caused increased tensions between the PNA and Hamas.

Lastly, on 6 September 2003, the European Union, acting under pressure from the United States and the United Kingdom, passed a resolution placing Hamas’s political wing on its blacklist and designating it a terrorist organization; in doing so, it categorized both the movement’s political and military branches as terrorist entities. Notably, not every member state supported this decision. The United Kingdom, for instance, opted to ban only Hamas’s military wing under its own domestic terrorism laws. Likewise, France and Germany resisted the EU’s designation of Hamas’s political wing, arguing that such a step would undermine the peace process. The inclusion of Hamas on the EU’s list of terrorist organizations in 2003 was largely driven by the efforts of Jack Straw, who served as the UK’s foreign secretary under Tony Blair from 2001 to 2006. Straw succeeded in persuading his German counterpart, Joschka Fischer, to back the initiative. The combined diplomatic influence of the United Kingdom and Germany proved sufficient to bring the remaining EU member states into alignment with the proscription. It is widely regarded that the EU’s adoption of this resolution precipitated the Sharon government’s assassination of Yassin.

When the interview was originally published, the following description was appended to its introduction:

After great effort, [the interviewer, Bilal Abu Daqa] managed to conduct the most comprehensive and significant interview with Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, founder of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and its spiritual leader.

[…] [He] arrived at the home of the disabled sheikh and waited for more than an hour and a half until he was brought from an unknown location. Two bearded young men carried him into the reception room, followed by two others carrying weapons. A physical therapist was waiting for him; […] [Bilal Abu Daqa] waited another hour for the therapist to perform his duties in treating the sheikh. Sources in the sheikh’s office told [Bilal Abu Daqa] that he had not undergone physical therapy for more than fifty days. It is certain that he will leave his home (located in the Al-Sabra neighborhood of Gaza City) after the interview for an unknown location [to undergo physical therapy].

In the modest reception room, Yassin sat in his wheelchair, with large Hamas slogans to his right and a model of the historical map of Palestine to his left; behind him was a photo of the child martyr Iman Hajjo, who had been martyred before she was but six months old.

A plastic chair was placed in front of the sheikh, where the correspondent [Bilal Abu Daqa] sat. The interview then began, lasting about two hours. The sheikh described it as his ‘most important interview.'

'After 72 hours without power in Israel – it will be uninhabitable,' says CEO of company overseeing electrical systems. Israel Electric Company quick to distance itself from the 'irresponsible' comments

Israel is utterly unprepared for a war with Hezbollah and for the toll such a conflict could take on the country's power infrastructure, the CEO of a company that manages and oversees Israel's electrical systems on behalf of the government said on Thursday.

Like me, this official assumed the escalation would climb far more rapidly towards vital points, rather than aiming for systematic military dissasembly. Do I retain settler brain? Surely..

Hi everyone! I've recently learned about the cultural boycott "No Music For Genocide" where musicians geo-block their music from streaming plattforms in Israel. It started with over 400 individual artists, bands and labels and has risen to over 1000 since its initiation in September 2025.

I was very happy to learn that many artists I adore participate in the boycott, but I've also noticed that there's artists that I know support Palestine but are not on the list yet. So my question is, how do you think we can raise attention and move more artists, bands and labels to participate in the boycott?

I have some smaller but still influential indie artists in mind, like Ethel Cain who have expressed their support for Palestine and maybe could be reached via direct messaging on Instagram or something. Getting as many names also from the Indie scene to be high in numbers is very important, but it would also be amazing to get some huge mainstream names!

There are a few big names already participating like Lorde and Björk but there can always be more. I specifidally thought of SZA and Billie Eilish. Now those two were participating would be mind-blowing as they are some of the biggest names in music right now, but that could potentially be a turning point for the (already pretty successful) boycott.

SZA has openly expressed her support for Palestine a few times. Billie Eilish is more vague in her support, but she is conscious about the events and otherwise also not shy of political statements, so maybe it's worth a try. Chappell Roan could be another one. She has become pretty hypocritical unfortunately, but she started out pro-Palestine, so it wouldn't be impossible, I guess.

How can we navigate this, do you have any idea on how to get as many people, bands and labels as possible to join the boycott? And do you have any suggestions who else we could try to get on the list who isn't already?

These links aimed to prove that it is everyday.
I've certainly missed a lot since Israel clearly isn't the topic i'm looking the most into nowadays, and i'm only spending ~'an hour' each day to watch the news. /c/Palestine@lemmy.ml covered other attacks during that same period, and many more similar events were probably never reported.

The israelis want to force their opponents into submission, instead of aiming for a solution that'd please every side, and which would require concessions on the western side. So we'll just lie about a war necessary for alleged nuclear weapons(, or to liberate them, more rarely admitting that it's only to destroy the last opponents of Israel), instead of seeking a peaceful solution together(, because we don't want to make concessions).

Efforts to shut down pro-Palestinian speech face series of setbacks in court: Rulings in cases alleging antisemitism on US campuses say common pro-Palestinian speech is constitutionally protected (The Guardian, 2026-03-19)

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/mar/19/pro-palestinian-speech-antisemitism-lawsuits
———

>> Pro-Israel groups have filed hundreds of lawsuits or legal actions in an effort to silence some of this speech [criticising Israel and Zionism], with the vast majority filed since 2023 ... The most important rulings to have come out of these cases, experts say, have found that speech and slogans at the heart of the controversies are protected by the first amendment.

>> A number of the rulings also state that the speech at issue is not antisemitic and does not violate the civil rights of Jewish students. Together, those decisions are delivering a blow to pro-Israel groups’ legal campaign to shut down protests and criticism of Israel through the courts…
