The protesters marched from the village towards the Wall that separates local farmers from their lands, upon arrival speeches were delivered by the organizers.

According to local farmers in Qafien the Israeli Wall annexed at least 5 thousand Dunoms of their lands to Israel. (One Acer = Four Dunoms).

The protest is part of a two months campaign "Together against the Wall" wich is organized by the local popular committees against the Wall and settlements construction in the West Bank.

The organizers told media that on Friday another protests will be organized in Bil'in village near Ramallah, and in al Khader village near Bethlehem.
