Maan News Agency: "Ramallah – Ma’an – Children in Bil’in demonstrated Sunday in yet another act protest against the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip Sunday.

The children rallied in solidarity with all the young in Gaza who have come under Israeli fire.

Children wore bloodstained t-shirts and lifted Palestinian and Venezuelan flags, the latter to show appreciation to Venezuela for dismissing their Israeli ambassador late in the week.

The group toured the streets calling children around the world to demonstrate in solidarity with Gazans and to put pressure on Israel to stop the Israeli aggression.

The children walked towards the wall, which cuts through village land and expressed their anger over the situation in Gaza.

As the children moved towards the wall, Israeli soldiers fired tear gas on them. Dozens were choked by the gas."
