Scores of Participants Injured in Bil’in
RAMALLAH, November 16, 2007 (WAFA)-At least tens of participants, of Bil’in weekly peaceful protest against the Apartheid Wall, were, on Friday, injured and suffocated when Israeli soldiers attacked the demonstration.
Locals said that Israeli soldiers threw at participants poisoned gas in an attempt to forbid them passing their way to a site near the Modi’in Illit Jewish colony.
36 members of the French Parliament and regional mayors as well as Palestinian, Israeli and international protestors joined the people of Bil’in for their weekly protest against the Wall.
The popular committee of Bil’in have been organizing weekly protests for almost three years now, culminating in an Israeli supreme court decision to reroute the apartheid wall further west to give Bilin 250 acres of its land back.
