The Palestine News network reported that dozens of youths broke the chains and locks that were sealing the iron gate, and managed to open the gate despite the fact that the army tried to prevent them by firing rounds of live ammunition, and gas bombs; dozens of residents were treated for the effects of teargas inhalation.
The illegally installed gate was placed by the Israeli army closing the main entrance of Nabi Saleh, depriving the residents from using the road, the only paved road that leads to the village, forcing them to use a longer, unpaved bypass road.
Nabi Saleh village is one of several Palestinian villages that hold weekly nonviolent protests against the illegal Annexation Wall and settlements built on privately owned Palestinian lands, preventing the residents from accessing their orchards.
