Alrowwad Cultural & Theatre Society, today, organized a march commemorating the 67th anniversary of the Nakba. The group, mainly consisting of young people, marched from the Alrowwad centre in Aida Camp to the Jerusalem-Hebron Road, where it was stopped from going further by PA troops.

PNN reports that 16-year-old Ahmed,, from Aida Camp, expressed his anger at the PA intervention, while other members of the march burned an Israeli flag and chanted towards the Israeli base from a distance.
