25 September 2009: Israeli forces target Palestinian cameramen at Bilin demonstration.

Around 1pm, Israeli forces arrested 2 Israeli solidarity activists and a Palestinian cameraman, Haitham al-Khatib (33 years old) during a demonstration in the West Bank village of Bilin.

Witnesses say that Israeli soldiers ran in and arrested the 3 demonstrators. Haitham al-Khatib was filming the demonstration near the Wall when he was taken.

Haitham has been filming the ongoing Israeli arrest campaign in Bilin. One of his videos was recently used by several news sources, including the Israeli news,

Haitham was previously detained by Israeli forces on 24 July 2009 when he arrived at Ofer prison to wait for the release of another Bilin resident. He was held for several hours and interrogated.

Coordinator of the Bilin Popular Committee Against the Wall and Settlements, Abdedallah abu Rahme, stated, Soldiers coming to arrest Palestinians from Bilin in the night is only part of intimidation campaign, the Israeli authorities are also targeting our supporters and journalists. They want us to stop our non-violent demonstrations, but as long as our land is being stolen, we cannot stop.
