Legal status in Israel for the parents of an IDF
During the war between Israel and Hamas in 2014, two IDF soldiers were captured. One was killed, while the other was in custody pending trial. Both were charged with intentionally causing death. These charges were disputed by the Palestinians and human rights groups. The Israeli Defense Forces said they were responding to a group of rock-throwing Palestinians. They estimated that no civilians would be injured in the attack.
The same day, the IDF shot a Palestinian in Tulkarm. He was identified as Muhammad Hossam Habali. The Israeli Defense Minister, Benny Gantz, expressed regret for the incident. He called for an investigation. A review was conducted and the findings were referred to the Military Advocate General.
The IDF also shot a 17-year-old volunteer medic, Sajed Mizher, while he was assisting a wounded Palestinian. He was wearing a paramedic's uniform and a reflective vest. His injuries were serious, and he was placed in solitary confinement. He was eventually transferred to the Israel Prison Service medical facility in Jerusalem.
An Israeli military court rarely acquits Palestinians accused of security offenses. Those under the age of 14 are held for up to two days. Adults are usually held for at least 20 days. Occasionally, sentences are reduced on appeal.
A video of the incident was released, and it contradicted the allegations against Khatib. He was acquitted, but only on the condition that he not take legal action against the court.
not allowed to join me in Israel
Among the tens of thousands of asylum seekers squatting in Israel's borders is a Finnish 61 year old man who has not set foot in Taybeh for more than five years. He wants to take his wife and four children on a well deserved holiday. The journey may prove to be more taxing in the near future.
The new regulations will prevent thousands of families from living together if one spouse is a foreign national. This new procedure has been in the works for more than a year. The latest iteration is slated for implementation on October 20, 2022. The new rules are a direct result of Israel's retrenchment and re-election of a right-wing government, which has sparked considerable opposition from the left. The new regime is also expected to cut the budget of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) by almost half.
According to the US Department of State, over 96% of refugees are from conflict areas such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, and Yemen. Most have no formal legal status and are confined to the border. For some, life as a refugee is not a choice, but an economic necessity. This is a major blow for many, and will only make their plight all the more pronounced.
