2000 Ramallah lynching
The 2000 Ramallah lynching was a violent incident in October 2000 at the beginning of the Second Intifada in which a Palestinian mob killed and mutilated the bodies of two Israel Defense Forces reservists, Vadim Nurzhitz (sometimes spelled as Norzhich) and Yossi Avrahami (or Yosef Avrahami),〔Vadim Nurzhitz, (ロシア語:Вадим Нуржиц), (ヘブライ語:ואדים נורז'יץ); Yossi Avrahami, (ヘブライ語:יוסי אברהמי)〕 who had accidentally entered the Palestinian Authority-controlled city of Ramallah in the West Bank and were taken into custody by PA policemen to the local police station.
==Incident==
On October 12, 2000, two Israel Defense Forces soldiers,〔 reservists serving as drivers, Vadim Nurzhitz and Yossi Avrahami, mistakenly passed an Israeli checkpoint and entered Ramallah. Reaching a Palestinian Authority roadblock, where previously Israeli soldiers had been turned back, the reservists were detained by PA policemen and taken to the local police station at Ramallah's twin city el-Bireh, not far from Arafat's headquarters.〔Hillel Frisch, ( ''The Palestinian Military: Between Militias and Armies,'' ) pp.96-97.〕 At the time a funeral service, attended by thousands of mourners for Halil Zahran (17), a Palestinian killed by Israeli forces two days earlier, had just ended.〔 Tensions were running high: over 100 Palestinians, nearly two dozen of them minors, had been killed in the preceding two weeks in clashes with Israelis forces in Ramallah,〔Eve Spangler, (''Understanding Israel/Palestine: Race, Nation, and Human Rights in the Conflict,'' ) Springer 2015 p.183.〕 and four days earlier, the badly beaten body of Issam Hamad (36) had been dumped outside of the city. His murder, according to Marwan Bishara of Al Jazeera, was attributed by locals to settlers in Halamish.〔David Pratt https://books.google.it/books?id=m_NE9jbFTrsC&pg=PA102 '' Intifada, '' Casemate Publishers 2009 p.102: ‘‘For two weeks there had been intense clashes, with over 100 funerals of Palestinians killed, nearly two dozen of them children. Earlier that same week the pressure gauge had risen even further after the badly beaten body of another Palestinian, Issam Hamad, had been found dumped on the outskirts of Ramallah. Locals were in no doubt that Israeli settlers were to blame for his killing., To the horror of Sergeant Novesche and Corporal Avrahami, it was bang in the middle of this Ramallah tinderbox that they found themselves stuck that day. To make matters even worse, their fateful entrance to the town also coincided with the funeral of another 17-year-old Palestinian boy shot dead the day before by other Israeli troops.’〕
Rumors quickly spread that Israeli undercover agents were in the building, and an angry crowd of more than 1,000 Palestinian mourners gathered in front of the station calling for the death of the Israelis. Word that two soldiers were held in a Ramallah police station reached Israel within 15 minutes. According to Roni Shaked, the IDF itself thought initially that the two must have been "undercover agents".〔 According to the Ramallah station chief, there were 21 policemen in the building, some of whom were cooks and administrative personnel, since many policemen had been dispersed throughout the city to control the crowd during the funeral.〔 The IDF decided against a rescue operation. Soon after, Palestinian rioters stormed the building, overcame the Palestinian police and murdered and mutilated both soldiers. Both Haaretz and Maariv reported that approximately 13 Palestinian policemen were injured while attempting to stop the lynching.〔Daniel Dor, (''Intifada Hits the Headlines: How the Israeli Press Misreported the Outbreak of the Second Palestinian Uprising,'' ) Indiana University Press, 2004 pp.123-128.〕 Jamal Tirawi the Palestinian Intelligence chief at the Mukata'a nearby, only intervened hours after the second soldier lay dying.〔
The Israeli reservists were beaten, stabbed, had their eyes gouged out, and were disemboweled. At this point, a Palestinian (later identified as Aziz Salha), appeared at the window, displaying his blood-soaked hands to the crowd, which erupted into cheers. The crowd clapped and cheered as one of the soldier's bodies was then thrown out the window and stamped and beaten by the frenzied crowd. One of the bodies was set on fire. Soon after, the crowd dragged the two mutilated bodies to Al-Manara Square in the city center as the crowd began an impromptu victory celebration. Palestinian policemen did not prevent, and in some cases actually took part in, the lynching. The Palestinian Authority however claimed that thirteen policemen were injured trying to protect the Israelis.〔
