Reported in some areas, the israelis are talking about more than 100 rockets from on two different rounds, a group of rockets uh was against the galila region, another salvoy was against in the Golan Heights and it seemed that they many of them landed and struck their targets and how that will play out also is another surprise and the number of rockets that hazbullah is showing day by day seemingly increasing and targeting areas that are further off yesterday for example they targeted areas in the goal on heights more and more and so it seemed that they are basically unifying the land when it comes to how they target and what they target.

A criminal offense, as the state prosecutor here, claims it to be an expression of hatred for the Israeli Regime. Solidarity with the palestinian liberation movement. People are shouting this in demonstration also from here in graz before years ago, it was never a problem.

Anan yaesh is a 37 year old palestinian citizen from tulkarm in the occupied west bank and a former member of the palestinian Resistance Movements. During the second palestinian intifada in 2006, anan who was just teenager served four year sentence in israeli jails a political prisoner. Annan holds a valid italian resident permit for special protection since 2017. Ananj was arrested without. Charged by the Italian Police on january 29 on an extradition request by the Israeli Regime which Italys Justice Ministry aquised straight away, weeks following anans arrest on march 11, hes now being charged with terrorism accused of being part of a terrorist cell that was allegedly planning attacks on israeli civilian and military targets. Italian investigators have used elements provided by tel aviv to charge. Anan and two other palestinians of allegedly belonging to an operational military structure called the Rapid Response group, which they claim to be linked to the alaxa brigade. There are countries like italy that are totally subservient to the us and its allies. This results in our authorities absurdly arresting anan for being surviled to israel, favor done to a prepotent a lie. You think the public will ever know about the details of annans arrest . Israels extradition request for anan was being examined by a court in laquela in central italy where the man was arrested in late january, the court is expected to rule on announced case soon. Due argumenti, we have appeal to the court not to extradite anan mainly on two grounds firstly, due to the systematic nature of torture other ill treatment of palestinians condictive or a waiting trial in israeli prisons. Annanyaesh would risk being tortured if extradited, secondly, while Israeli Citizens are subject to israeli civil and criminal law, palestinians are subject to a military court system. Ananhs lawyer, flavia albertini also argued that the charges against this client and the other two palestinians were politically motivated, referencing italys Prime Minister georgia melones stonge support of the Israeli Regime.
