RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- Three Palestinians were wounded and dozens choked by tear gas Friday in clashes that broke out between Israeli troops and demonstrators in Bil’in village, Ramallah district, during a weekly march against the apartheid wall and settlement activity.
Local sources said Israel troops fired stun grenades, rubber bullets, and gas bombs at protesters. Tal Shapira, 25, Amjad Abu Rahma, 16, and Fadi al-Khatib, 15, were hit with gas bombs during the incident.
The march was also in support of detained anti wall activists Abdullah Abu Rahma and Adeeb Abu Rahma, against whom Israeli military prosecutors are pushing for a maximum sentence.
Dozens of other demonstrators suffered breathing difficulties in the Bethlehem village of Al-Ma’sara when Israeli forces suppressed a weekly march in protest of the separation wall and settlement activity in the village.
Dozens of villagers and foreign activists raised Palestinian flags and chanted slogans against Israel’s settlement policies to play their part in the march.
