Dear friends,
please find below a collection of photos which various activists on the ground in Bab Al Shams have either tweeted or posted on the internet.
As you will be aware from my previous blog, more than 250 Palestinian activists early Friday morning established Bab Al Shams on Palestinian land located in the Occupied East Jerusalem/Occupied West Bank corridor which has been designated "E1" by the Israeli state. Israel has long sought to build illegal colonies on the land in order to delink the Occupied West Bank from Occupied East Jerusalem in order to prevent a contiguous Palestinian state.
Activists have vowed to remain on the land and to resist non-violently any attempt to evict them.
In solidarity, Kim
