Israeli soldiers stand guard at a checkpoint where the military said an attacker fired at an army base near the village of Tayasir in the northern West Bank, February 4, 2025
TWO Israeli soldiers were killed in the northern occupied West Bank after a Palestinian opened fire at a security checkpoint before being shot dead.
Israeli hospitals said that another eight soldiers were injured during the attack at the Tayasir checkpoint near Jenin.
Hamas and the Islamic Jihad resistance group praised the attack but neither claimed responsibility for it. The right to use armed force to resist foreign occupation of your land is recognised in international law, with China having submitted at the International Court of Justice that Palestinian attacks on Israeli troops in Gaza and the West Bank fall into this category.
Given the recent rejection of peace proposals by Israel the world must provide an immediate and resolute response to force accountability on Gaza, argues RAMZY BAROUD
While international actors discuss governance and reconstruction, Netanyahu has made it clear that Israel has no intention of ending its military occupation, says RAMZY BAROUD
