Friday of liberation of the prisoners.

Friday of liberation of the prisoners.
Arrest of a citizen and injury of dozens of protesters by tear gas suffocation in the village of Bil'in west of Ramallah
Occupation forces arrested the citizen Ashraf Ibrahim Abu Rahma (30 ) from the village of Bil'in, and dozens of demonstrators were suffocated during the weekly march organized by the Popular Committee Against the Wall and Settlements in Bil'in, with the participation of dozens of Palestinians , international activists and Israeli peace activists.
The march began after Friday prayers from the center of the village heading to the land that was liberated where participants raised Palestinian and Libyan flags and patriotic slogans.They also carried posters of images of prisoners, and chanted the national call for the departure of the occupation and destruction of the apartheid wall. They also called for Palestinian rights and the freedom of all prisoners.
Upon the arrival of participants in the protected natural reserve of Abu Limon, the soldiers fired dense tear gas from behind the concrete wall toward the participants, using rubber-coated metal bullets, leading to suffocation of scores of participants with poison gas. Clashes broke out between the participants and soldiers of the occupation, during which participants threw stones at the soldiers. Tear gas caused the fields adjacent to the wall and the protected natural Abu Limon to catch fire , which led to the burning of dozens of olive and oak trees. The soldiers pursued the demonstrators through the olive fields and arrested Bil'in citizen Ashraf abu Rahma who was standing peacefully with his flag.
