Israelis in Tel Aviv protest against occupation of Palestinian land
The protesters marched from the ministry of military affairs to the headquarters of the ruling Likud Party on Saturday night.
Dov Khanin, one of the organizers of the protest, said the regime’s occupation of the Palestinian land is “dangerous, malign and expensive.”
“The immense sum of money invested in building and securing the settlements and constructing apartheid walls, means less to welfare and education,” Khanin said.
Israel continues with its expansion of illegal settlements in Palestine.
On Thursday, the Tel Aviv regime announced the approval of 300 new illegal settler units in East al-Quds (Jerusalem).
More than half a million Israelis live in over 120 illegal settlements built since Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories of the West Bank and East al-Quds in 1967.
The United Nations says the settlements are illegal because the Palestinian territories were captured by Israel in the war of 1967 and are hence subject to the Geneva Conventions, which forbid construction on occupied land.
