PA Security Forces Suppress Palestinian March toward West Bank Checkpoint
(Ma'an News-PA) Palestinian Authority security forces on Wednesday stopped hundreds of Palestinian marchers in Ramallah's al-Bireh neighborhood from reaching a checkpoint outside the nearby Israeli town of Beit El in the West Bank. Dozens of youth left the march and headed toward the Israeli town of Psagot where they clashed with Israeli forces. PA security forces also blocked protesters from reaching Beit El last week. The forces reportedly assaulted several journalists and prevented them from covering clashes that broke out between the forces and protesters at the time.
