According to the demonstrators, Border Police troops who arrived on the scene fired tear gas and rubber-tipped bullets at them, wounding 16 people, including four who were taken to a Ramallah hospital for medical treatment. Despite this, the demonstration held strong for two hours. This is the fifth anti-separation fence rally held in Na'alin within the past two weeks, and activists say more protests are scheduled for the coming days. Advertisement An Israel Defense Forces spokesperson said that after the protesters entered the closed military zone and throw stones at the stationed Border Police troops, they took action to disburse the demonstration and arrested two of the activists. Over the last two years, the village of Bil'in has become the site of a weekly demonstration protesting the construction of a security fence Israel claims is intended to keep out terrorists, which Palestinians say is a land-grab.
