18 and medical supplies remain an obstacle to meeting health needs of the Gaza population. Additionally, disruption of the supply of these and spare parts needed for maintaining broken devices have made difficult the work of medical staff in emergency sections, operation theatres, and intensive care units. Israeli violations had a significant impact on the educational process. To demonstrate their impact on the education, the Ministry of Education (MoE) monitored and documented these violations. Israeli abuses of the educational process both increased and varied. A total of 217 violations targeted 85 schools. Of these, Israeli troops raided school compounds, fired tear gas canisters, stun grenades, live ammunition, and rubber-coated steel bullets on students and school buildings, threatened to close down schools, and physically assaulted students and teachers. Some 41,052 students and 3,607 teachers and administrative personnel experienced various abuses.1 In occupied East Jerusalem, Israeli policies were carried on, attempting to Israelise and replace the Palestinian education curriculum with an Israeli one. To Judaise them, Israel also sought to distort the Palestinian curriculum, including the content of some school textbooks. In the Gaza Strip, education has been negatively impacted by the blockade. The Israeli occupying authorities obstructed reconstruction and restoration of destroyed schools by denying access to necessary reconstruction materials. The blockade also inhibited the construction of new school buildings to accommodate the increasing number of students. Large-scale violations targeted the Palestinian environment, including land, hair, and water. The Israeli occupying authorities waged a silent war with the objective of destroying Palestine’s environment, which reflects a central plank of the Palestinian national identity. The Israeli occupying authorities disrupted and prevented staff members of the Palestinian Energy and Natural Resources Authority (PENRA) from discharging functions. As the Environmental Law enforcement agency, PNERA carries out oversight, inspection, and law enforcement across Area C. Suspended coordination between the Palestinian and Israeli sides reduced the ability of PENRA personnel to access some regions and obstructed their role in prosecuting the smuggling of waste, detecting wastewater flowing from Israeli settlements, and monitoring other environmental violations. Israeli settlers set Palestinian citizens’ land on fire in a pre-emptive step prior to the olive harvest season. In addition to environmental impact on flora, fauna and biodiversity, this practice is designed to expel and disable Palestinians from tending their lands. This encroachment is all the more fierce during the olive harvest season. The Israeli occupying authorities have accentuated security instability and chaos. To this end, Israel continued to disrupt functions and obstruct movement of Palestinian security agencies from one area to another, particularly across Area 1 MoE Directorate General of Field Monitoring, Ministry of Education, Annual Report on Israeli Violations against the Educational Process, 2022, Ramallah, February 2023.
