Wednesday 13-November-2019

Confrontations erupted in Arroub refugee camp in al-Khalil on Wednesday morning between local demonstrators and Israeli occupation forces (IOF).

Eyewitnesses said that the confrontations flared up after IOF soldiers fired live and rubber bullets along with sound bombs at the demonstrators who were protesting the occupation’s practices.

They said that the demonstration was also in solidarity with family of Omar al-Badawi who was killed by IOF two days ago and added that the march started inside the camp passed by the martyr’s family home then reached the camp’s main entrance that was closed by the IOF to block the marchers’ advance into the main road.
