Palestine under attack

Curfew in the West Bank
April 14th, 2002

For 16 days now complete and total curfew has been imposed on the Palestinian towns and cities invaded by Israeli troops. The lifting of these curfews happens for three or four hours every forth or fifth day, but in some areas it has not been lifted at all.

This curfew is totally unjustified and serves no purpose except to punish Palestinian civilians and to attempt to destroy Palestinian society and institutions. With the curfew comes the complete paralysis of all sectors of society: economy, education, and health.
