Hamas is demanding the release of all Palestinian prisoners re-arrested after their release in the Shalit exchange deal before returning to ceasefire, Israeli media reported Monday.
Israel's Hebrew-language Walla news website cited a high-ranking Hamas official who denied Hamas’ involvement in the recent kidnapping and killing of three Israeli teenagers weeks earlier.
The official, Walla reported, added that if Israel wanted to return to ceasefire it would have to release all these prisoners and return to a 2012 Egypt-brokered ceasefire.
A video published Sunday on YouTube, allegedly produced by Hamas, threatened Israeli “settlers” of Beersheba and urged them to depart before it was "too late."

The video starts with the words “to the settlers of Beersheba” both in Hebrew and Arabic, then shows a zoom-in of the city provided by Google Earth.
Images of four Israeli leaders including the prime minister appear on the screen with the phrase “your leaders” both in Hebrew and Arabic. The video continues to address the people of Beersheba through phrases on the screen with archive images in the background. “Your leaders have killed our children, bombarded our homes, and so have sentenced you to death. Run away before it’s too late,” says one of the messages. |

The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) are considering demolishing dozens of Palestinian homes belonging to Hamas officials and activists in the occupied West Bank, Haaretz newspaper said Monday.
“The demolition procedures are to destroy dozens of homes of Hamas leaders and ex-prisoners released in the Shalit prisoner swap deal along with a number of Palestinian civilians charged for potential involvement in the murder of Israeli soldiers as part of its latest escalation against Hamas, Haaretz pointed out.
It added that such Israeli demolition procedures targeting the homes of Palestinian activists have been suspended in 2005 when Israel had come to realize their arbitrariness.
In an earlier incident this week, the IOF razed Ziad Awad’s home, in Idna, to the ground under pretext that he might have been involved in the shooting of an Israeli officer at the Tarkoumia checkpoint.

Nael Barghouthi
Ofer military court on Thursday extended the detention of six former prisoners recently rearrested during Israel's search campaign for three missing Israelis.
The Palestinian Prisoners Society said detention orders for Nael Barghouthi, Rabee Barghouthi, Ibrahim al-Masri, Ibrahim Shalash, Muayad al-Jallad and Nayif Radwan were extended to July 14, 15 and 16.
All of the men were released in the 2011 swap deal for captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit.
Nael Barghouti's wife said Israeli forces accused her husband of breaking the terms of his release, adding that her husband is being held under administrative detention.
Nael was 20 years old when he was detained in April 1978. He was the longest serving Palestinian prisoner in Israeli jails, having spent 33 years behind bars for alleged membership of an armed group before his release.
Over 50 prisoners released in the 2011 swap deal for captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit have been rearrested in the current campaign and seven have had their release canceled, meaning their previous long-term sentences could be reimposed.
In total, Israel has detained 566 Palestinians in the military campaign, the Palestinian Prisoner's Society said Thursday.

For the first time since 2009, Israeli occupation authorities issued a demolishing order for the house of Ziyad Awwad , the alleged suspect for the killing of Baruch Mizrachi, as a punishment. Israeli sources revealed that Israeli occupation government intends to increasingly ask the court to allow the punitive house demolitions which they believe have proven effectiveness in the past.
According to B’Tselem, Israel demolished some 666 houses as punishment during the years of the second intifada, from 2001 until the practice was discontinued in February 2005.
Since 2005, Israeli war ministry stopped demolishing practices saying it does not have a deterrent effect and, instead, it stirs up more hatred.
A statement by the ministry at that time said, however, that the policy would be reinstated if “there were an extreme change in circumstances.”

Israeli forces have again arrested former prisoner Samer al-Essawi, after storming his house in al-Eesawiya.
Al-Eesawi served 10 years in Israeli jails and became an internationally recognized icon for the prioners' movement after spending 9 months on hunger strike last year.
The Palestinian News Network (PNN) reports that Samer was released, along with 1027 Palestinian prisoners, as a result of an Egypt-brokered deal between Hamas and the Israeli government for the return of Gilad Shalit.
In July of 2012, however, he was re-arrested for violating the terms of his release when he left Jerusalem into the West Bank.
Convicted for 8 months, to possibly include a reinstatement of the rest of his original 26 year sentence, Essawi began a hunger strike in August, 2012.
In April of last year, when a deal was finally reached where he was to serve 8 months for violating his bail, and then be released to Jerusalem, Samer announced the end of his strike.
Today, Israeli forces raided al-Essawi's village, where clashes broke out with residents before they broke into Samer's house and arrested him again.
According to Ma'an, military forces detained 37 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, earlier, as Israel's massive arrest campaign continued for the 11th day.
Israel accuses Hamas of kidnapping three Israeli teenagers from the illegal Israeli settlement of Gush Etzion, near Bethlehem, though no evidence has actually been presented to determine that a kidnapping took place, let alone by Hamas.
Israeli military spokesman General Motti Almoz said, on Sunday, that all information indicates that the teenagers "are alive".
Samer's sister Shireen was arrested with their brothers Medhat and Shadi in March. They were not charged, but Israel has refused to release any details about their arrest, in line with behavior typical of the Administrative Detention policy.
Shireen's detention has been extended by the Israeli court system three times, now, according to the PNN.
In January of 2013, brother Ahmad Issawi’s home was bulldozed.

Israel Police Chief Superintendent Baruch Mizrahi, who was shot near Hebron on his way to a Passover Seder.
Two Hamas operatives are suspected of opening fire on Baruch Mizrahi, who was killed while traveling with his family on the eve of the Passover holiday.
Two Palestinians were charged Monday with the murder of a senior Israeli police officer. The two were arrested last month, Israel's security forces revealed after a gag order on the case was lifted.
Israel Police Chief Superintendent Baruch Mizrahi was killed on April 14, on the eve of the Passover holiday, when a gunman fired on his car. Mizrahi and his wife, who was moderately wounded, were making their way to Kiryat Arba, where they were planning to celebrate the holiday. A 9-year-old boy who was riding in a nearby car was lightly hurt as well.
The two suspects are a father and son, both Hamas operatives, who reside in the Hebron region. The alleged gunman, Ziad Awadh, 42, was one of the prisoners released in October 2011 as part of the deal that secured the release of Israel Defense Forces soldier Gilad Shalit from Hamas captivity. Awadh was serving a life sentence for the murder of Palestinians suspected of collaborating with Israel. The son, Az Adin Awadh, 18, is said to have been the getaway driver.
According to the Shin Bet, Az Adin, the son, gave up the murder weapon – a Kalashnikov – and "divulged additional information that points to Ziad's involvement in the attack." Other suspects interrogated as part of the investigation said that Ziad purchased the motorbike and rifle in order to carry out the shooting. He scoped out the site of the attack a week ahead of time.
A senior Israeli official said the Awadhs' house would be demolished as a punitive measure, subject to court approval. The move would be part of a "new approach" adopted by the security establishment over the past couple of weeks, which also includes the re-arrest of prisoners released in the Shalit deal. The detainees are being brought before military committees that decide whether they will return to jail due to violation of the terms of their release.
"The arrest of the terrorist from Passover eve – a Hamas operative – underlines yet again that this is the same Hamas that carried out the kidnapping and with whom Abbas signed an accord," the official said. "Abbas needs to choose between peace with Israel and the treaty with Hamas.
The arrest stands as the most significant case brought against a prisoner freed in the Shalit deal so far.

Member of the Jewish Home Party Orit Struck suggested arresting all Hamas leaders and re-arresting the Palestinians ex-detainees released in Shalit swap deal as a bargaining chip for the release of the three settlers claimed to be abducted by Hamas. Struck adopted the suggestion and Benyamin Netanyahu approved it during the cabinet meeting held on 14 June on the alleged kidnapping of the three Israeli soldiers in Hebron.
“We need to carry out an operation that makes Hamas beg us.” Struck told the head of her party at the cabinet meeting Naphtali Benet according to Haaretz Daily Newspaper,
The Israeli military has been launching a mass search on the Hebron hills after three Israeli illegal settlers believed to be missed, dozens of Palestinians were detained in the operation.

Israel's public prosecution on Friday transferred seven Palestinian prisoners released in a 2011 swap deal to Haifa's central court for re-sentencing, a prisoners group said.
A lawyer from the Palestinian Prisoners Society told Ma'an that a special committee in Haifa's central court on Friday cancelled the temporary parole order for seven prisoners released in the 2011 prisoners swap deal for captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit.
Alaa al-Din al-Bazyan, Rajab al-Tahhan, Ismail Hijazi, Nasser Abd Rabbu, Adnan Maragha, Ibrahim Mashaal and Jamal Abu Saleh will appear before the court on Friday.
The court will review violations of the prisoners' parole with the aim of reinstating their previous prison sentences, the lawyer added.
The seven ex-prisoners were detained on Wednesday after Israeli forces raided their homes in Jerusalem.
The 2011 deal traded Gilad Shalit, an Israeli soldiers captured by Hamas militants on the Gaza border in 2006, for 1,027 Palestinians and Palestinian-Israelis being held in Israeli jails.
The detention and retrial of the prisoners, however, is a breach of the deal possibly related to the ongoing Israeli search operation across the West Bank, and could potentially have wide-reaching consequences for other freed prisoners.

The Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, has firmly condemned the ongoing Israeli deportation threats and mass abduction campaigns targeting, so far, more than 50 Palestinian ex-detainees released in the Ahrar swap deal. “We, Hamas leaders and the Palestinian masses, declare our firm rejection of the Israeli banishment schemes targeting our leadership and national icons.
This is a war crime and a flagrant crossing of all redlines. The Israeli occupation should think twice before launching such a frenzied attack,” Hamas said in a statement issued by its media office on Wednesday.
“Our leaders have all the means and abilities to thwart all projected deportation crimes as we did many times before. The Israeli Occupation will always remember the “Marj al-Zouhour victory” when Hamas leaders foiled Israeli attempts to expel our leaders to the Lebanese borders,” the statement added.
According to Hamas, the Israeli mass kidnap of Palestinian prisoners released in al-Ahrar deal is an unspeakable breach of all international laws and treaties. The international community and all concerned parties should, therefore, take on their responsibilities vis-à-vis such Israeli violations.
“We hold the Israeli occupation authorities entirely responsible for the lives and safety of our national leadership and ex-detainees. Such an unprecedented upsurge in Israeli aggression represents a desperate Israeli shot that unravels a great panic and fear of a potential resistance or reaction,” Hamas said appealing to Palestinian masses and national factions to pool resources.
The Islamic Movement spoke against the unjustifiable silence and apathy revealed by the World’s Arabs and Muslims and called for official political, media, and popular campaigns aiming at exposing the Israeli violations of international laws and rallying round the oppressed Palestinian people and ex-detainees .
“Our people and leadership know well how to reclaim their own rights and those of their offspring,” Sheikh Saleh Aruri, Hamas political leader, vowed as he denied all rumors that the Ahrar swap authorizes any potential re-capture of Palestinian ex-detainees, no matter the circumstances.
Meanwhile, Hamas has embarked on a set of serious measures to respond to the Israeli intimidation and terror campaigns, Aruri further revealed.
