Palestinian Activists Block Settler Road 443
By Popular Struggle Coordination Committee, October 16, 2012
About 50 Palestinians joined by a number of international activists blocked today the Apartheid Road 443 (known as Modiāin, which passes on West Bank lands, connecting Tel Aviv to Jerusalem). The road was blocked for about 30 minutes to Israeli and settler traffic.
Soldiers and Border Police who arrived on the scene physically attacked protestors and journalists, and used pepper spray and sound bombs. One Palestinian protestor was detained and beaten. He was released an hour later.
