(TJV NEWS) Israeli soldiers raided the home of Palestinian activist and Oscar-winning director Basel Adra in the southern West Bank this evening, after two Israelis were injured by stone throwing in the area, according to the military.
Adra told The Associated Press that before the army raid, Israeli settlers had attacked his village of at-Tuwani, injuring two of his brothers and one cousin.
He accompanied them to a hospital, and while there, Adra said that he heard from family in the village that nine Israeli soldiers had entered his home, were searching for him, and were going through his wife’s phone.

The military says that it had received reports that “a number of terrorists hurled stones at Israeli civilians near at-Tuwani.” As a result of the stone throwing, two Israelis were injured, the IDF says in response to an inquiry.
Following the reports, the IDF says it dispatched troops to the scene, “and they are currently scanning the area and questioning suspects.”
Among those questioned was Adra, a military source confirms to The Times of Israel.
Adra won an Academy Award earlier this year for his work as a co-director of “No Other Land,” a documentary that chronicles Israeli demolitions in Masafer Yatta, a Palestinian West Bank village in a designated IDF live-fire training zone
I suggest The Jewish Voice post a daily tribute to an Israeli hero for a courageous for the Jewish people. Here is the first one for today from X for an Israeli teenager soldier on October 7: Miss Ravit Assayag, 19:
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐈𝐬𝐫𝐚𝐞𝐥𝐢 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐛𝐲 𝐇𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐬.
“𝐈𝐟 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐠𝐨 𝐢𝐧, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝”
Miss Ravit Assayag, 19, was an Israeli teenager that ignited a revolution when she defended her fellow Jews on October 7th.
She saved the village of Yakini.
The night before, Ravit was in NYC and as soon she got off the red-eye flight to Israel, Ravit she went straight onto the field to protect her people.
Her commander told funeralgoers:
“Ravit insisted on going in first. She was killed but she saved the unit, she saved the operation.
We were in an olive grove and had been fighting for several hours. We shot eight of them. Ravit killed three.
We thought they were all dead. We did a sweep of the area and Ravit went to check a shed in the olive grove.
She insisted on going in first. She asked me to cover her. She was shot. But if she had not gone in there, he would have wiped us all out. She saved the unit.”
Just 72 hours earlier Ravit posed for a picture in NYC where she was celebrating the Jewish festival of Sukkot — also known as the Feast of the Tabernacle — with her father.
Every Sukkot they travelled to the United States to sell ritual fruits known as ‘etrog’ — called citron in English — to the NYC Jewish community.
Two parents and 8 siblings, and a family business, she leaves behind.
RIP RAVIT, born July 23, 2004, fell in battle October 7th, 2023. She was only 19.”

The sweetness of her sacrifice may rid of the putrid taste left by the story of this evil terrorist, above.
