Injuries in Israeli repression of Kafr Qaddum’s weekly protest

Qalqilya (QNN)- Israeli forces on Friday repressed the weekly peaceful protest against the Israeli apartheid wall and settlement in Kafr Qaddum, wounding several Palestinians.

Locals protested against the apartheid wall and settlement, which have been swallowing the villages’ land. They also called for opening the main road in the village, which the Israelis have closed over 16 years ago.

The coordinator of the popular resistance in Kafr Qaddum, Murad Ishtewi, said that dozens of Israeli soldiers stormed the village and showered locals with live and rubber-coated metal rounds, in addition, to tear gas and stun canisters, leaving dozens of injuries and suffocation cases.
