Settlers shot him, soldiers obstructed the ambulance
In spite of his pain, after sustaining a gunshot injury in his leg, resident Nasser Wafi, from Khan Younis and his family, felt happy that he is still alive, and among his family members.
The incident took place on Saturday June, 18, 2005, when Wafi was at the beach in al-Mawassi area, west of Khan Younis; settlers attacked him and a group of residents, and fired at him from a close range.
Wafi was at the beach area with his friend Mohammad al-Majayda, when dozens of settlers attacked the area and fired at them.
“it was evening, we were sitting at the beach, the weather was really nice, but then a group of settlers attacked us and started punching and kicking us, when we tried to defend ourselves, one of them opened fire and shot me in my right thigh, my friend Mohammad sustained bruises and concussions in his head" Nasser said.
“The soldiers were present in the area, but they didn't attempt to stop the settlers, I remained on the ground, bleeding for 30 minutes until a Palestinian ambulance managed to reach the area and transferred me and my friend to the hospital"?, Nasser added.
The ambulance was delayed at al-Tuffah checkpoint while transferring them to Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, while soldiers were searching it ignoring the fact the two wounded residents, bleeding, and need to be transferred urgently to the hospital.
Wafi, who was injured for the first time at the beginning of al-Aqsa Intifada, said that the residents of al-Mawassi area, which was completely closed by the army since September 2000, live under very harsh conditions, repeated invasions and shelling, yet settlers attacks against the area accumulates the suffering of the residents.
Settlers increased their attacks against al-Mawassi after the Israeli Prime Minister announced his Disengagement Plan, and carried out several shootings, and assaults against the Palestinian residents, their homes, and even attacked and fired at schools which belong to the UNRWA.
“Recently the settlers started deploying in the farmlands, streets, waving their automatic guns, waiting for the first prey to appear, and hunt it"?, Wafi added.
Yasser Abdul-Ghafour, a field researcher of the Palestinian Center for Human Rights, said that several violations were reported in al-Mawassi, after groups of settlers repeatedly attacked school students, broke into a harbor and robbed fishing and boating equipment.
One and half months ago, settlers attacked dozens of school students in al-Mawassi, fired at them, and threw some of them at barbed wires; several students were injured while the Israeli army failed to probe the assault.
Khan Younis Governor, Hoseny Zo'rob, said that the attacks carried out by the settlers aim to create a reaction from the Palestinian side, and break the ceasefire agreement in order to drag the area into a new cycle of violence to foil disengagement.
Yet, the residents of al-Mawassi are still surrounded from all directions, settlements, military camps, and full military closure over their area over the last four and half years, while settlers are acting with free hand against defenseless residents, surrounded even in their homes.
They are still there, in there homes, placed “under arrest" after their area became a surrounded zone, closed and choked by military camps.

Soldier convicted of killing British Peace Activist
An Israeli military court on Monday found Israeli soldier Taysir Al-Heib guilty of the manslaughter of British peace Activist Tom Hurndall in Gaza Strip in April 2003.
The court also found al-Heib guilty of obstruction of justice and giving false testimony.
The court found that the defendant had shot Hurndall with a sniper's rifle, using a telescopic sight, and that al-Heib had given a "confused and even pathetic" version of events to the court.
The court referred to a confession by the defendant, in which he said he wanted to teach Hurndall a lesson for entering a claimed forbidden zone. Al-Heib claimed he aimed 10 centimeters to the left of Hurndall's head to frighten him, but had unintentionally shot him.
"From that moment, Sergeant al-Heib began a broad campaign of lies and falsehoods to throw off the expected investigation and to exonerate himself of any guilt," according to the verdict.
Hurndall's father and brother were planning to attend the court, however, the Israeli authorities denied Hurndall's brother entry to the country for “security reasons"? and only his father Anthony was present in the court this morning when the verdict was read out.
“We're concerned there is a policy which seems to be prevalent in Gaza that [Israeli soldiers] feel able to shoot civilians without any accountability,"? Anthony Hurndall said.
Israel to rule on British Activist's death
An Israeli military court is due to give its verdict in the case of a soldier accused of the manslaughter of a British student, the BBC reported on Monday.
Tom Hurndall, 22, from north London, was shot while he was working as a photographer and activist with the International Solidarity Movement (ISM), in the Palestinian town of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip in April, 2003. He died on January 14, 2004, in a London hospital, after nine months in a coma.
Witnesses say he was trying to escort children away from gunfire when he was hit in the head by a single shot fired from an Israeli army watchtower.
Mr. Hurndall was wearing a florescent jacket indicating that he was an unarmed international. Activists in the area, including Hurndall, wore these jackets for several days before he was shot.
At first, the Israeli army claimed the soldier opened fire at a “gunman" wearing a camouflage uniform, and the state said was satisfied with a preliminary military investigation. Under pressure from Mr Hurndall's family and the British government, the army later ordered a full criminal investigation.
It went on to indict the sniper who fired from the watchtower.
Now, after a year-long military trial, an Israeli military court is to say whether or not the soldier is guilty of Tom Hurndall's manslaughter.
It is very rare for such a case to get this far, the BBC said. Hundreds of civilians, most of them Palestinians, have been killed by the Israeli army during the course of fighting in recent years, according to human rights organizations. But the army has carried out only a small number of investigations into wrongful killings, and it has only ever indicted and convicted a handful of soldiers.
Rachel Corrie, a 23-yearold American, was killed in Rafah a month before Hurndall, when an Israeli bulldozer ran over her as she tried to protect a Palestinian house from being demolished. Corrie, from Olympia, Washington, was also an ISM activist.
The ISM website says, “The ISM is a Palestinian-led movement committed to resisting the Israeli occupation of Palestinian land using nonviolent, direct-action methods and principles."
The movement was founded by a group of, Palestinian and International peace activists in December 2000, following the start of the second Intifada, to promote nonviolence as a method to resist the occupation.
