On the 424th day of the "Operation Al-Aqsa Flood," the occupation forces persist in intensifying their aggression on the Gaza Strip, resulting in civilian massacres, alongside ongoing confrontations between the Palestinian resistance and occupation forces across various fronts.

 Humanitarian Disaster: 70,000 Disabled Due to Aggression in Gaza  

The Director of the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Dr. Munir al-Borash, revealed that the ongoing Zionist aggression has caused disabilities for 70,000 people in the strip, a shocking figure that reflects the scale of the humanitarian tragedy. 

Al-Borash explained in statements to Al-Jazeera that the large number of casualties is clear evidence that the occupation is committing systematic genocide against the Palestinian people, amid a shortage of medical capabilities that hinder the treatment of the injured.

 206 Archaeological Sites Destroyed by the Occupation   

Ismail Thawabteh, the Director General of the Government Media Office in Gaza, confirmed that the Zionist aggression has systematically targeted Palestinian heritage. 

He pointed out that 206 archaeological and heritage sites have been destroyed out of 325 sites in the strip. 

Among the prominent archaeological sites targeted by the occupation with its shells and missiles are the Omari Mosque in Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip, and the Great Omari Mosque in Gaza City, which are historical landmarks bearing a rich civilizational heritage. 

The occupation also targeted the Sheikh Ridwan Mosque in the old city of Gaza, which dates back to the Phoenician era and has sustained severe damage to its walls and gates, according to Thawabteh. 

Thawabteh confirmed that these crimes are part of a systematic Zionist strategy to erase the Palestinian identity and wipe out the historical memory.

 Tragedy in Northern Gaza: Horrifying Casualty Figures  

Over the course of 60 days, the occupation forces intensified their ground, air, and naval attacks on northern Gaza; this led to a humanitarian disaster, according to the government media office. 

The government media added in a press statement that more than 3,700 martyrs and missing persons have fallen victim to this ongoing aggression, with 2,400 martyrs buried, in addition to 10,000 wounded and 1,750 detainees.

 Al-Qassam Sniper Kills a Zionist Soldier in Jabalia  

The Al-Qassam Brigades announced that they carried out a sniper operation targeting a Zionist soldier near the Zammu Roundabout east of Jabalia. 

This operation comes amid the ongoing large-scale extermination and ethnic cleansing by the occupation, which has prompted the Palestinian resistance to escalate its qualitative operations in response to this aggression.

 Hamas: 33 Zionist Prisoners Killed, Some Missing   

In a statement, Hamas revealed that 33 Zionist prisoners were killed and some were reported missing during the ongoing Zionist aggression on Gaza. 

The movement stated in a video clip published on its website that the deaths and disappearances of the prisoners were due to the criminal Netanyahu and his fascist army, according to their statements. 

The movement warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the continuation of the aggression could lead to the complete loss of the prisoners forever, urging the occupation to take appropriate steps before it is too late.

 Shocking Poll: One Third of Jewish Youth Abroad Sympathize with Hamas!  

A poll conducted by the "Mosaic United" Hebrew organization showed that 32% of Jewish youth abroad sympathize with Hamas, while 36% believe that "Israel" is committing genocide in Gaza. 

According to the details of the results, as published by Anadolu Agency: 

- 37% of American Jewish youth sympathize with Hamas, while the percentage drops to just 7% in other countries. 

- 42% of American Jewish youth believe that "Israel" is committing genocide, compared to only 9% of their peers in other countries.

The history of Zionist political and military organizations forms the cornerstone of the establishment of the Zionist entity. Through its political and economic institutions, it strengthened migration and settlement, while its military formations worked on imposing the Zionist project by force, contributing to the consolidation of occupation and achieving the goals of the Zionist movement.

This article highlights the most prominent organizations and institutions that played a pivotal role in solidifying Jewish migration and settlement in Palestine, alongside the military formations that paved the way for the establishment of the occupying entity through armed operations against the Palestinians.

First: Political Formations

Lovers of Zion

The "Lovers of Zion" associations were established in 1881 in Russia after the May Laws that targeted Jews there, and sought to promote Jewish migration to Palestine and purchase land there. This movement served as a link between the "Vanguards of Zionism" and political Zionism led by Herzl. It adopted the slogan "To Palestine" and established several colonies such as "Rishon LeZion" and "Zichron Yaakov." It greatly contributed to shaping the intellectual foundation of Zionism by advocating for cultural and economic separation from surrounding societies.

World Zionist Organization

Established after the First Zionist Congress (Basel, 1897) led by Herzl with the aim of establishing a national homeland for Jews in Palestine. It established financial institutions such as the "Jewish National Fund" (1901) and the "Jewish Colonial Trust Fund," which contributed to funding migration and settlement. The organization succeeded in increasing the number of Jews in Palestine from 80,000 in 1922 to 650,000 in 1948, thanks to the support of Western powers.

Jewish Colonial Association

Founded in 1891 by Baron Maurice de Hirsch to settle poor Jews from Europe in agricultural colonies. It began its activities in Palestine in 1896 and established new colonies, in coordination with the Jewish Agency after 1929. It contributed to the development of agricultural colonies and the promotion of settlement even after the establishment of the occupying state.

Halutzim

A movement of Jewish immigrants during the Second Aliyah (1904-1914) focused on agricultural work and the revival of Hebrew culture. The Halutzim played a role in shaping kibbutz farms and military organizations like "Hashomer" and "Haganah," which became the nucleus of the Israeli army.

Jewish National Fund (Keren Kayemeth)

Established in 1903 to purchase and develop land for the benefit of Jews. Its activities focused on land reclamation, afforestation, and funding settlement projects. By 1947, the fund owned approximately 933,000 dunams of land in Palestine, and continued its activities in promoting settlement after the establishment of the occupying state.

Foundation Fund (Keren Hayesod)

Established in 1920 to fund migration and settlement after the Balfour Declaration. It contributed to the establishment of colonies, economic companies, and infrastructure such as the port of Tel Aviv and the water company "Mekorot."

Jewish National Council

Established in 1920 to represent the Jews in front of the British Mandatory authorities and international investigation committees. It worked in coordination with the Jewish Agency in organizing the affairs of the settlers and preparing for the establishment of the Zionist state.

The Jewish Agency

The Jewish Agency was founded in Palestine in 1922, based on Article IV of the British Mandate Charter, which was based on the Balfour Declaration. The article stipulated the establishment of a "suitable Jewish agency" to act as an advisory body to the British administration and cooperate in economic and social issues that serve the establishment of a national homeland for the Jews and protect their interests.

The Sixteenth Zionist Congress defined the goals of the Agency as:

1. Promoting Jewish immigration to Palestine.

2. Purchasing land as Jewish property.

3. Encouraging agricultural settlement based on Jewish work.

4. Promoting the Hebrew language and heritage.

During the British Mandate, the Agency played the role of a government for the Jewish settlers and contributed to the establishment of the national homeland under British protection.

After the establishment of the Zionist entity in 1948, most of the Agency's tasks were transferred to the occupation government. In 1952, the Knesset passed a law separating the tasks of the Agency from the Zionist organization, while maintaining its role in absorbing and developing immigrants in cooperation with Jewish institutions.

Secondly: Military formations

Hashomer (The Guard)

Established in 1909 as the first Zionist organization specialized in defense and guarding settlements. It was founded by members of the Bar-Giora Association under the leadership of Yitzhak Ben Zvi and Alexander Zaid. It evolved from a guard to an organized armed force defending settlements in the Galilee and other areas.

In the early 1920s, the organization was dissolved to establish the "Haganah," while some of its extremist members joined the "Irgun."

Haganah (Defense)

Established in 1921 in Jerusalem, and led the establishment of the Zionist entity until 1948. During World War II, it supported Jewish resistance in Europe and the migration of Jews to Palestine.

With the declaration of the occupation state, Ben Gurion issued a decision to merge the Haganah with other military organizations to form the Israeli Defense Forces.

Irgun

Founded in 1931, under the leadership of Vladimir Jabotinsky, then Menachem Begin. It was known for terrorist operations such as the bombing of the King David Hotel and the Deir Yassin massacre. In 1948, it merged into the occupation army, and its leaders were later honored.

Lehi (Stern)

Broke away from Irgun in 1940 under the leadership of Abraham Stern. It carried out terrorist operations, most notably the bombing of the Jaffa headquarters. Its forces joined the Zionist army in 1948, and its members later received government privileges.

Jewish Brigade

Established by Britain during World War II based on the efforts of the Jewish Agency, and included Jewish units that fought in Europe. After the war, its members joined Zionist organizations and became part of the Zionist army.

Kuwait University marks 58 years

Officials reflect on the university’s significance in Kuwait’s development

 Kuwait University celebrated its 58th anniversary on Wednesday. Since its founding in 1966, the university has played a key role in the nation’s development. The university has been instrumental in shaping future generations, investing in human capital, and fostering knowledge, innovation, and scientific research to produce a skilled workforce contributing to the country’s growth and progress.

In a statement to the Kuwait News Agency (KUNA), Acting President of Kuwait University Osama Al-Saeed expressed his pride on this occasion, offering congratulations to His Highness the Amir Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, His Highness the Crown Prince Sheikh Sabah Al-Khaled Al-Hamad Al-Sabah, the Kuwaiti people, and the academic community.

He highlighted that the establishment of Kuwait University on November 27, 1966 marked a historic milestone in the nation’s scientific development. Since then, the university has upheld its educational philosophy and policies, inspired by the late Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Salem Al-Sabah, emphasizing the use of knowledge and human resources to serve the community while promoting academic and ethical values.

Al-Saeed also underscored the university’s essential role in nurturing national talent and preparing leaders across various fields of knowledge. Today, Kuwait University is home to 16 faculties across scientific and humanities disciplines, housed in the prominent Sabah Al-Salem University City. He reaffirmed his commitment to ensuring the university’s continued success, advancing the educational process, and building national capabilities in alignment with Kuwait’s Vision 2035.

Mishari Al-Eifan, the Acting Secretary-General of Kuwait University, also extended his congratulations to the country’s leadership and citizens, noting that significant academic and scientific achievements have marked the university’s journey. “Since its inception, Kuwait University has been dedicated to building a well-educated and aware Kuwaiti citizen,” Al-Eifan said. “Today, we stand on the threshold of a new era, committed to meeting the challenges of a rapidly evolving world by providing an educational environment that nurtures creativity and innovation.”

Kuwait University was the first public research university in the country. Its formal opening was marked by the passing of Law No 29 of 1966, which organized higher education. The university’s first colleges were the College of Science, Arts, and Education, and the College for Women. At its inception, Kuwait University had just 418 students and 31 faculty members.

The university’s new campus, located in Sabah Al-Salem University City in Shadadiyah, has further strengthened its position as a beacon of education for the community. Spanning 6 million square meters, the campus is designed to accommodate over 40,000 students. The university’s faculties, many of which have received international design awards, seamlessly blend modernity with educational philosophy, representing both functional excellence and aesthetic appeal. — KUNA

 Palestinian diplomat hails Kuwait’s efforts to end Gaza genocide

  Kuwait’s role in supporting Palestine and its continuous efforts to end the genocide in Gaza is prominent and exceptional, said Palestine’s Permanent Representative to the UN Riyadh Mansour. In a statement to KUNA late Tuesday, on the sidelines of a ceremony to celebrate the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, organized by the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People (CEIRP), Mansour hailed Kuwait’s support for the Palestinian cause, along with other Arab states.

He noted the joint Arab work with Algeria, as a non-permanent member in the UN Security Council (UNSC), to end the war on humanity in Gaza and reconstructing the Strip. He hoped to move to the next step in implementing the rule of the International Court of Justice, which affirmed that the Zionist occupation of Gaza is illegal and must end immediately.

The UN General Assembly issued a resolution on ending the occupation within 12 months, said Mansour, adding that the assembly called on the international community to refrain from providing the Zionist aggression force with weapons or deal with settlements, while also calling for bringing war criminals to justice, in accordance with the International Criminal Court’s order on arresting Zionist occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The Palestinian representative also stressed that the only way to stop the “dangerous escalation” in the region and preserve regional and international peace and security is to resolve the Palestinian issue based on international resolutions, starting with the immediate implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2735. Mansour called for practical and decisive actions to address the risks to achieving a just and comprehensive peace based on international legitimacy and the Arab Peace Initiative.

The international day was launched in 1977 by the UN General Assembly to support the right of Palestinians to have an independent state. It is also a reminder for the international community to exert further efforts to save the lives of Palestinian people and achieve peace and stability, the ambassador said. — KUNA

The Kuwaiti charity organization, "Hofath," launched the Warm Winter project to provide winter assistance to the needy in several countries, especially Gaza and northern Syria.

The Vice President of the organization's board of directors, Mr. Ahmed Al Murshid, stated that the Warm Winter project provides necessary winter relief to those in need, including winter clothing, blankets, heating materials (diesel, firewood, charcoal), and also provides food baskets including flour, oil, and basic necessities. The winter season comes every year to renew the suffering of our needy brothers who lack the means to protect children, women, and the elderly from the severe cold that freezes their extremities, causes illnesses, and threatens the lives of patients.

He added: This winter, the humanitarian suffering of our brothers in Gaza worsens due to the bombings that have forced most of the besieged population to flee after their homes were destroyed, leaving them with no choice but to stay with their children in schools or in old tents that do not protect them from the winter cold. Many of them have to take off their clothes to protect their children from the cold. We ask Allah to alleviate their suffering, have mercy on their martyrs, heal their wounded, and shelter their displaced.

Al Murshid concluded by calling on people of goodness and generosity to contribute to the "Warm Winter" project to assist their brothers in Gaza and other countries, alleviate the suffering of orphaned children, the poor, the needy families, and those in need in several countries, through donations on the Kuwaiti charity organization's website (Hofath) at hofath.org.
