Hundreds protest against Israel’s annexation plans near Nablus
Hundreds of Palestinians staged a protest against Israel’s plans to annex parts of the occupied West Bank, in the town of Asira, north of Nablus, on Friday.
According to Press TV, footage shows Israeli forces firing tear gas and stun grenades at protesters.
The Israeli regime is planning to annex large areas of the occupied West Bank; a step which has been denounced by the United Nations, several European powers, and the Palestinian Authority as well as human rights organizations as being contrary to international law.
