French journalist shot at Bil'in demonstration

Local residents and foreign activists from France, Belgium and Ireland participated in the demonstration against the wall and the continued building of Zionists' colonies in the West Bank.

When the demonstrators reached the wall Zionist troops attacked them with tear gas and rubber-coated metal bullets.

Many of the demonstrators suffered from the effects of tear gas and two demonstrators were injured by rubber bullets.

A French journalist who works for a Saudi television channel was hit in the leg. He was treated at the scene.

The Bil'in committee, who organize non-violent resistance action, called on people to take part in a march to be held on Sunday against Zionist regime's discriminatory policies against Palestinians.
