AL-KHALIL, (PIC)-- Thousands of Palestinian citizens on Saturday participated in marches in some West Bank major cities demanding the de facto government of Salam Fayyad to step down because of its wrong social and economic policies, and its restrictions on freedoms.
The rallies were organized simultaneously in the cities of Al-Khalil, Nablus, Ramallah and Bethelehm, where protestors chanted slogans and carried banners against Fayyad and the Palestinian authority.

Some banners called for toppling Fayyad's government and others demanded the Palestinian authority to halt its peace talks with the Israeli occupation.

Protestors in Al-Khalil city described Fayyad's government as a tax collector and called for stopping its suppression of political and media freedoms in the West Bank.

Senior official of the popular front for the liberation of Palestine Badran Jaber said more than 3,000 Palestinians participated on Saturday in a massive march held in Al-Khalil to protest the West Bank government's economic and social policies and its restrictions on Freedoms.
Two other marches were also organized in the Nablus city, one against Fayyad's impoverishment policy in the West Bank and the other against the PA's talks with the Israeli occupation.
