TODAY: Displaced Palestinians return to what is left of their homes in the Shuja'iyya neighborood east of Gaza city, where a new tent camp has been established. Since the Israeli colonial forces withdrew from the 'Netzarim Corridor' yesterday that had completely separated the northern and southern parts of the Gaza Strip from one another, Palestinians have started to return to the north in large numbers. International, private security contracters have been deployed to control all vehicles entering the north from the south via checkpoints. During the last 15 months of the Israeli genocidal war, more than 90% of Gaza’s population has been displaced, many of them multiples times. 80% of the Strip's residents are refugees from towns and villages throughout Palestine that were depopulated in 1948.

JAN 26: Silwan residents demonstrate in front of the Jerusalem Municipality in an attempt to stop the plans of mayor Moshe Leon and the municipality to demolish the neighborhood and turn it into a settlement park called “King’s Garden.” Palestinian residents of Jerusalem have almost no chance of obtaining building permits, and every home that is built is at risk of demolition. Last year was a record year for home demolitions. In December alone, the municipality demolished 21 homes in Silwan, displacing 48 families. The demolitions are part of an attempt to create a settlement ring around the Old City basin, and the “King’s Garden” plan is a continuation of accelerated attempts to colonize Silwan by building Jewish settlements and forcing Palestinians out. The project aims to connect the sites of the Elad Association in the “City of David” with the sites of the Ateret Cohanim Association in Batn al-Hawa. Photos: Faiz Abu Rmeleh /Activestills.

TODAY: Thousands of displaced Palestinians using the al-Rashid coastal road start returning to what is left of their homes in northern Gaza and reunite with loved ones for the first time in many months, following the ceasefire agreement. Israeli colonial forces ordered more than one million Palestinians to move south in the first weeks of the genocidal war on Gaza. More than 90% of Gaza's population was displaced, many of them multiples times, over the past 15 months. 80% of the Strip's residents are refugees from towns and villages depopulated in 1948.

YESTERDAY: Family and friends celebrate the return of Palestinian captive Mohammed al-Arida in his home town of Arraba in the West Bank. Al-Arida is one of the most prominent of around 200 Palestinian captives released today as part of the prisoner exchange negotiated between Hamas and Israel. Al-Arida was one of six captives who broke free from Israel's high-security Gilboa prison in 2021. The six became known as the Freedom Tunnel captives, figures of Palestinian resistance, after using metal spoons to dig the tunnel used in the escape.

TODAY: Large numbers of Palestinians wait next to the "Netzarim Corridor", where they have been prevented from crossing to the north since yesterday by the Israeli colonial forces who had opened fire at them, killing at least one Palestinian. The Corridor has been established by the Israeli colonial forces in central Gaza, completely cutting the south from the north.
According to the ceasefire agreement, the Israeli forces must withdraw from this Corridor to allow the return of Palestinians to what remains of their homes. During the Israeli war on Gaza, most of the Palestinian residents of the north were forced to flee to the south and they are now desperate to return, to check homes, search for the remains of their family members who were killed, or reunite with other relatives. However, Israel claims that the release of the soldiers before the remaining female civilians are released is a violation of the agreement and, as a result, has declared that they will prevent residents of north Gaza from returning to their homes. Israel's genocidal attacks destroyed or damaged an estimated 92% of homes in Gaza and displaced more than 1.9 million people. Photos: Yousef Zaanoun/ Activestills

TODAY: Dr. Abdullah Al-Zaher receives treatment at the Khalil Suleiman hospital in Jenin after being shot by Israeli snipers on his way to the hospital. According to Al-Zaher, who is the head of the hospital's Pediatrics department, snipers targeted his chest but hit his hand instead, and then shot him again in the leg as he crawled for safety. The hospital has been under siege by Israeli colonial forces for five days, since the start of a major Israeli operative in the Jenin area which has killed at least 12 Palestinians and injured at least 50. Some 600 medical workers and patients are sheltering inside Jenin’s Khalil Suleiman governmental hospital with dwindling supplies of food and water.Photos: Wahaj Bani Moufleh/ Actovestills

TODAY: Palestinians inspect the rubble of a home in Burqin, in the occupied West Bank, where two Palestinian resistance fighters were killed during an Israeli raid in the Jenin governorate. The men - identified as Mohammed Nazzal, 25, and Qutaiba Shalabi, 30 - were killed after engaging in clashes with Israeli colonial forces, who besieged the town and used missiles and heavy machinery to demolish the house, killing Mohammed and Qutaiba. Their bodies are being withheld. The fighters were accused of carrying out an operation in early January, shooting at a bus and killing three Israeli settlers. The raid on Burqin came as part of a larger Israeli military operation that began on January 21 in the Jenin area, aimed at suppressing Palestinian armed resistance.

JAN 20: Burnt homes and cars are seen in the Palestinian town of Sinjil in the West Bank - part of the aftermath of a violent attack by Israeli settler militias last night. The settlers burned at least four vehicles and attempted to set fire to two houses while residents were inside, injuring two minors and an 86-year-old man who was pulled from his burning home after a molotov cocktail was thrown at the house. Several residents also suffered from smoke inhalation. Israeli soldiers blocked ambulances transporting the injured to hospitals and fired tear gas at residents attempting to defend themselves, while allowing settlers to continue attacking. This incident was part of a series of attacks across the West Bank by Israeli settlers angered by the freeing of Palestinian captives. Photos: Avishay Mohar /Activestills.
