RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- A Palestinian youth was hit with a bullet while many others suffered breathing problems when Israeli occupation forces (IOF) used rubber coated bullets and teargas to disperse the weekly peaceful anti-wall march in Bilin village, Ramallah district, on Friday.
Local sources said that a 20-year-old young man was hit with a bullet in his pelvis during the IOF violent quelling of the march while tens were treated for breathing difficulty.
They added that a group of foreign solidarity activists took part in the event during which they raised Palestinian flags and slogans denouncing the Israeli occupation's settlement policy and its attacks on Jerusalemite homes.
French solidarity activists and a delegation of the industrial workers of the world participated in the march that also called for releasing all Palestinian detainees.
Demonstrators marched in the village streets chanting national unity slogans and calling for resisting occupation.
The IOF soldiers fired at the marchers when they approached the separation wall
