🎥 In Episode 4 of "Palestinian Life Under Israel’s Illegal Occupation" we look at The Separation Wall built around the West Bank.
The wall, deemed illegal by the International Court of Justice, is not built on the border between the West Bank and Israel but instead 85% of its 700km length is built inside the West Bank border - encroaching in on Palestinian land, isolating communities and annexing farmland. It blocks farmers from their fields, children from their schools, and families from each other.
For people who are cut off by the wall, they now have to take hours-long journeys to get around it and hope they are granted access through checkpoints on the way.
While Palestinians are penned in by the wall, settlers in illegal settlements are connected by 1661km of settler-only roads.
📢 Share the stories in this video told by West Bank Palestinians. Demand an end to illegal settlements.
