The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Friday violently suppressed a peaceful Palestinian march staged in the central area of al-Khalil city to mark the 26 anniversary of the Ibrahimi Mosque massacre and to condemn Israel’s ongoing crimes against the Palestinian people.
According to local sources Israeli soldiers showered the participants with stun and tear gas canisters and physically assaulted many of them.
The protesters marched to al-Shuhada street which has been closed since the 1994 massacre that was committed by a Jewish terrorist at the Ibrahimi Mosque in the Old City of al-Khalil.
They carried Palestinian flags and placards demanding the Israeli occupation to reopen the street and denouncing the US deal of the century and Israel’s crimes and settlement activities in the Old City of al-Khalil.
