Israel Injures Scores of Protesters in Occupied Territories Clashes
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Scores of protesters were injured on Monday in the West Bank, Gaza Strip
and East Jerusalem as Palestinians and Arab citizens of Israel clashed
with Israeli forces during a strike to protest Israel's Jewish
nation-state law. The law, which passed in July, declares that only Jews
have the right to national self-determination, and established Hebrew as
the official language. This is protester Husni Sultan.

Husni Sultan: "We are here united, and our message is one message
against the nation-state law, which aims at separating us from the lands
of our fathers and grandparents."
