AL-KHALIL, (PIC)– A number of Palestinian civilians were wounded on Saturday when Israeli occupation forces (IOF) violently quelled their weekly peaceful march in Beit Ummar village to the north of Al-Khalil.
The popular committee in the village said that the soldiers assaulted the participants and injured a number of them.
Violent confrontations took place after the IOF crackdown and many citizens suffered fractures.
The march this week was in solidarity with Palestinian prisoners in Israeli occupation jails especially the eight children who are waiting for their trial hearing in Ofer military court on Sunday amid fears that the court might order their banishment away from their homes as demanded by the military prosecution.
