A general strike was declared Saturday across Salfit town of Bidya to protest Israeli settlers’ murder of the Palestinian woman Aisha Rabi.
Palestinian neighborhoods and communities in and around the town joined the strike staged in response to the settlers’ crime.
The 45-year-old Aisha Rabi died before midnight on Friday of a serious injury she sustained after Jewish settlers attacked the car she was aboard along with her husband near Za’atara checkpoint south of Nablus city in the occupied West Bank.
In recent days Jewish settlers intensified their assaults on Palestinian citizens and their property in the West Bank especially in southern Nablus.
