Saturday 2-November-2019

Dozens of Palestinians and foreign activists were injured on Friday when Israeli occupation forces attacked the weekly anti-settlement demonstration in Kafr Qaddum village in the West Bank province of Qalqilya.

Local sources said that the Israeli forces heavily showered the peaceful demonstrators with tear gas bombs and stun grenades wounding dozens of them.

The Palestinian residents in Kafr Qaddum stage a demonstration every week to protest the Israeli seizure of Palestinian land in favor of settlement construction and call for opening the village’s main road that has been closed for 16 years.
