IOF suppresses Bil’in peaceful march

Friday 2-December-2016

The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) suppressed Friday afternoon the peaceful weekly anti-occupation march in Bil’in town near Ramallah.

Local sources affirmed that Israeli forces violently attacked the participants once they approached the Apartheid Wall established at the expense of the town lands.

The area was then declared a closed military zone.

The peaceful march was organized by the popular committee against settlement marking the international day in support of Palestinian people.

Dozens of local and foreign activists took into the streets Friday afternoon despite the very bad weather in protest against Israel’s escalated settlement policy.

The protesters held Palestinian flags and chanted slogans in support of national unity and Palestinian constants.

They also called for the release of all Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails.
