Thousands attend funerals of 2 Palestinians killed by IDF during Nakba Day clashes

About 3,000 people attended the funerals on Friday of two Palestinians killed by IDF fire in the West Bank during Nakba Day protests, as further clashes took place between protesters and soldiers.

 

"With our blood, with out souls, we sacrifice for you, o martyrs!" mourners chanted as the bodies, draped in Palestinian flags, were taken through the streets of the West Bank town of Birzeit.

 

After the funeral, hundreds of Palestinians clashed with Israeli soldiers near the Ofer military prison, leaving at least four Palestinians injured, an AFP correspondent said. Two Israeli journalists were attacked by protesters, according to several sources. (AFP)
