Palestinians walk by an Israeli checkpoint next to the site of an attack by a Palestinian fighter against Israeli settlers which occured the day before near the Israeli settlement of Kyriat Arba, Hebron, October 30, 2022. An Israeli settler was killed in the attack and four others injured. The Palestinian fighter was killed. Following the attack, Israeli colonial forces increased their presence and further restricted the freedom of movement of the Palestinian residents of Hebron’s. The same night of the attack, groups of Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian homes with stones and gunfire, and vandalized their cars. Many Palestinian shops were closed today due to a strike.
The Activestills collective was established in 2005 by a group of documentary photographers, out of a strong conviction that photography is a vehicle for social change. We believe in the power of images to shape public attitudes and to raise awareness on issues that are generally absent from public discourse.
We view ourself as part of the struggle against all forms of oppression, racism, and violations of the basic right to freedom. We do work on various topics, including the grassroots movement and the popular struggle against the Israeli occupation, women’s rights, immigration, asylum-seekers, social justice, the siege on Gaza, and housing rights inside Israel.
