Demonstration Against The Wall Today in Khirbatha Bani Hareth

A demonstration was organized today in Khirbatha Bani Hareth today against the construction of the Apartheid Wall on villagers lands. The demonstration started at 5:30 this morning when people began heading towards the threatened lands. Almost immediately Occupation soldiers began firing tear gas and rubber bullets against the demonstrators, leaving 42 people injured, including five who were shot in the head. The Occupation soldiers then declared the area as a closed military zone and large numbers of reinforcements spread out across the area to enforce the order. The people of the village say that the Occupation forces were determined to keep working on the Wall, destroying their lands, oppressing any popular protest from the people, even if that meant shooting at their heads. However villagers say they are equally determined to protect their lands and will continue their demonstrations whatever the cost.
