At the beginning of the year, I met shepherd Tawfiq Hajj Qassem and his 500 sheep — some adorned with colorful fabrics — at the summit of Mount Tammun in the occupied West Bank. For more than 50 years, Hajj Qassem had regularly made the journey from his village of Atuf in the northern Jordan Valley, walking an hour and a half up the mountain to reach a wide open green space, grazing his flock for a few hours, and returning home.
The Israeli right is rekindling a Zionist classic: Judaizing the Galilee
The Israeli right has an old-new target in its sights ahead of next month’s election: After Gaza, the West Bank, Jerusalem, and the Naqab (Negev), right-wing politicians are now increasingly vowing to crack down on Palestinian existence in the Galilee, in northern Israel.
‘Survival of the nation’: Israel’s obsession with dead soldiers’ sperm
Earlier this year, Nitza Shmueli posted on Facebook to make an unusual request about her deceased son. “I, Barel’s mother, am looking for a woman who wants to conceive a child from Barel’s sperm, a woman who wants to gain a warm and loving family,” she wrote. “If you think you could be the intended woman, you are welcome to contact me privately.” Barel, a 21-year-old sniper in an undercover unit of the Israeli Border Police, was shot by a Palestinian gunman on Aug.
Israel’s military ‘justice’ system is working exactly as intended
Last month, the Israeli military announced the results of its preliminary reviews of five high-profile incidents that occurred during its campaign of mass killing and destruction in Gaza. The military had decided to open a criminal investigation into the January 2024 killing of Hind Rajab, six of her relatives, and two Palestinian Red Crescent paramedics; and another into the March 2025 killing of 15 medical and rescue workers in Tel Al-Sultan.
‘It’s déjà vu’: Israel moves to seize land in Bil’in — once again
In the early 2000s, the West Bank village of Bil’in became a focal point of the Palestinian popular struggle against the separation barrier — the roughly 400-kilometer system of fences and concrete walls that Israel began erecting in 2002, during the Second Intifada, ostensibly to prevent Palestinian attacks. In Bil’in, the barrier’s construction cut residents off from most of the village’s agricultural land.
How Israel manufactured a fuel shortage in the West Bank
Ahmad, a veteran mechanic in Ramallah, wipes black grease from his hands with a tattered rag as he surveys a disassembled car engine in his workshop. In recent weeks, he tells +972 Magazine, he has seen a sharp rise in vehicles damaged by contaminated or adulterated fuel, which corrodes fuel pumps, clogs injectors, and ruins spark plugs. For motorists already squeezed by rising living costs and an unemployment crisis, the repairs are another expense many can ill afford.
The myth of Israel’s Arab doctors
In recent weeks, Arab staff members in the intensive care unit at Rambam Hospital, in the northern Israeli city of Haifa, have found themselves at the center of a public attack. Relatives of Israeli soldiers wounded in Lebanon who were being treated at the hospital accused “Arabic-speaking” staff of malpractice, claiming the staff had deprived their loved ones of water and treated them roughly.

Farewell to the artist who connected Palestinians to themselves
Sliman Mansour was more than a painter: He created the visual language through which we learned to imagine our land, history, and peoplehood. facebook twitter email link Sliman Mansour in his studio in Al-Bireh, occupied West Bank, July 25, 2024.

Netanyahu’s ‘total victory’ vow kept him in power. Now it may be his undoing
A little over a month after October 7, 2023, Israel’s Channel 12 published its first Knesset seat projection following the Hamas attack. Unsurprisingly, the results were catastrophic for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. His Likud party, which had won 32 of the Knesset’s 120 seats in the election only a year earlier, was polling at just 17 seats — close to its worst-ever showing. The governing coalition, which totaled 64 seats, had dropped to 45 in the poll.
