 As the residents of Ni’lin village, near the central West Bank city of Ramallah, supported by international peace activists, held their weekly nonviolent protest against the Israeli Annexation Wall on their lands while Israel soldiers showered them with teargas bombs. Troops violently attacked the peaceful protest, and a number of residents were treated for gas inhalation. Among them were Palestinian legislator, Dr. Mustafa Barghouthi, Irish Noble Prize laureate, Maread McGuire, and Palestinian cameraman Mahmoud Harbiyyat who works for the Watan TV. All received treatment by field medics. The protest started after Friday prayers and the protesters were planning to march towards a construction site of the Annexation Wall. Soldiers attacked them and barred them from reaching the area, local sources reported. Later on, clashes erupted between local youth who hurled stones at the soldiers and the army showed them with teargas canisters and rubber coated bullets. Soldiers also fired teargas canister at a number of homes in the village; several residents were treated for gas inhalation. |
