Bethlehem student protest against Israeli demolitions at Al Aqsa Mosque in East Jerusalem's Old CitySeveral student blocs from Bethlehem University and Al Quds University protested the Israeli destruction of Al Aqsa Mosque's Moroccan Gate on Tuesday afternoon. The students took to the streets of Bethlehem and shouted slogans criticising the continued threat to Muslim holy sites and the process of purging Jerusalem of its Muslim heritage.

They walked until literally hitting the Israeli wall that surrounds Bethlehem . |
