This week's demonstration marked Bil'in's 3rd Anniversary of the village's struggle against the wall and the occupation. More than 2000 people joined this event which was also marked by the 39th anniversary of the Democratic popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP).

The protesters marched out of the village and reached the wall chanting slogans but were met with a military barricade set up by the Israeli soldiers. As soon as the protest reached the barricade soldiers showered them with tear gas and sound bombs.

As a result, sixteen demonstrators, including one journalist, were injured by rubber bullets, gas and gas canisters and were evacuated to a hospital in the nearby city of Ramallah for treatment, where the injuries were described as light to moderate.
