AI Summary:
Israeli soldiers raided Alyeean’s home in Bethlehem and abducted his 22-year-old son, Adam. He was supposed to sit university exams in the coming days. Israel has arrested at least 95 Palestinians in raids and at checkpoints for no clear reasons. Israel has imprisoned 800,000 Palestinians across the occupied territory. "Mass incarceration is part of the apartheid regime," a spokesperson for B’Tselem says. Israel has a track record of rearresting dozens – sometimes hundreds – of Palestinians. Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit was finally released in exchange for 1,027 Palestinian prisoners. Three years later, Israel raided homes and rearrested dozens of Palestinians. Israeli occupation continues to detain Palestinians during same day when prisoners are released. Many Palestinian families have been able to welcome loved ones back home. Israel gained statehood after expelling Palestinians from their land in 1948. It integrated this process in order to try Palestinians in military courts rather than civilian courts where Israelis are tried. Amro said his daughter still does not know of any charges brought against her. Israeli soldiers banged on Amro’s door and warned him not to have a party or celebrate Janin’s release. He promised he wouldn’t, but remains terrified that Israeli soldiers will raid his home again to arrest Janin or one of his other children. Part of living under occupation is realising that your loved ones can be arrested at any time for no obvious reason.

AI Summary:
25 survivors and victims’ families are suing President Cyril Ramaphosa and his government for damages worth $9m. They have accused the government of “gross failure” to prosecute the six apartheid-era security officials allegedly responsible for the murders, and for “suppressing” inquiries into the case. In the Cradock community in the 1980s, the four activists were known for fighting against gruelling conditions for Black South Africans. The Craddock Four became icons, with T-shirts and posters bearing their names. Apartheid government officials denied involvement in the killings. In 1992, leaked documents revealed that the four had been killed by “unknown persons”. Officials said the men failed to make a “full disclosure” about the circumstances of the killings. The TRC required accused perpetrators to fully disclose events they were involved in to be considered for a pardon. At the time, family members described their happiness at the decision. "We never interfered in the work of the National Prosecuting Authority," he said in a statement in March 2024. "The executive never prevented the prosecutors from pursuing the cases referred to by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission" "If the investigations were stopped, they were stopped by the NPA and not at the behest of the Government," the suit specifically named President Ramaphosa. The funds would be available to all other victims and survivors of apartheid-era political crimes, Geldenhuys added. The Cradock Four were important figures during the apartheide era, but the fact that their deaths were never fully prosecuted has held the interest of many South Africans. In 2023, an official inquiry was opened for the first time. In total, the case could see the deaths of nearly 30 people newly investigated.
