Pregnant Woman Loses Fetus At West Bank Checkpoint

Paramedic Bashar Qaryouti said soldiers held the ambulance for more than 30 minutes and shut off medical equipment while the woman was bleeding heavily.

  • On Monday, a 28-year-old pregnant woman from Qaryut lost her fetus after Israeli soldiers blocked her ambulance for more than 30 minutes at the Awarta checkpoint, disabling medical equipment keeping her stable.
  • Following Friday's deadly clash near Tal that left two Israeli soldiers and four Palestinians dead, Israeli forces intensified a military crackdown detaining more than 70 suspects across the occupied West Bank overnight.
  • Israeli settlers escalated violence Sunday by setting fire to the newly built Al-Rahma Mosque in Qusra, spray-painting graffiti reading "revenge for Benayahu," referencing Benayahu Mellet, a 32-year-old security team member killed Friday.
  • Nine people were arrested at a Saturday protest in Tel Aviv against the crackdown, while UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories Francesca Albanese described settler attacks as amounting to "pogroms."
  • Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich announced 763 new housing units in the Eli settlement as polls suggest Netanyahu could lose power in elections three months away, signaling accelerated settlement construction appeals to his right-wing base.
