On Friday, scores of villagers from al-Ma'ssara, located near the southern West Bank city of Bethlehem, suported by international peace activists, protested the illegal Israeli wall being built on the village's lands. 

The demonstrators called for Palestinian national unity, and demanded Israel to stop building the illegal wall on the villagers' lands.  

 The protest started at the local school and demonstrators marched to the location of the construction of the wall, where Israeli troops had formed a blockade, which stopped protestors from making it to the wall.  

Speeches were delivered by local organizers.  The protest dispersed without any clashes with the Israeli military, which doesn't happen very often lately.
