JERUSALEM, January 21, 2018 (WAFA) – Israeli forces Sunday continued their blockade of the village of Hazma, to the east of Jerusalem, for the third day in a row, according to local sources.
The Israeli army closed the entrances to the village with cement cubes two days ago after a bus carrying illegal settlers was pelted with stones just outside the village.
Clashes also erupted last night when Israeli soldiers broke into the village. They used live bullets, rubber-coated steel rounds and toxic gas to disperse the protesters, but there were no reports of injuries.
