"It is the sound of a multifloor cement home being reduced to rubble.

When you wake up to this sound your heart sinks and seems to merge with a the fear that is rolling around in your stomach."

[NABLUS] Several hundred Palestinian and international civilians are coming under brutal attack by the Israeli army as they non-violently march in the streets of Huwara. The soldiers have responded with live fire, tear gas, and sound grenades. Witnesses report the Israeli soldiers are beating Palestinians and international civilians with fists and rifles.

The civilians are courageously breaking the Israeli imposed curfew and defying the policies that are destroying their lives in a peaceful fashion.

The International Solidarity Movement is a Palestinian-led movement of Palestinian and International activists working for Palestinian freedom and an end to Israeli occupation. We utilize nonviolent, direct-action methods of resistance to confront and challenge illegal Israeli occupation forces and policies.

We oppose the collective punishment and will continue to be a resource for the people of Palestine to aid in their struggle against the vicious policies of the Israeli army and government.

Video footage of the protest is available.
