A group of internationals and peace activists marched nonviolently in a protest of solidarity with the people of Nil'in village. The protest was against the wall being built on the village lands that has led to the illegal closures and confiscation of land and property. The coordinator of the local committee against the wall and settlement construction, Salah Al Khawaja, told IMEMC that troops dispersed the protest by shooting sound bombs and tear gas at the protestors, causing dozens to suffer from gas inhalation.
