Activists calls for Day of Anger against Prawer scheme in 1948 territories

Youth groups in the Palestinian 1948-occupied territories called for announcing next Thursday the first of August “a day of public anger” to protest against the Prawer plan

The scheme threatens to confiscate more than eight hundred thousand dunums of lands in the Negev to the south of the Palestinian land, to demolish more than 35 Arab villages and to displace about 40 thousand Palestinian citizens.

The activists in a press release on Sunday called on all the Palestinians in the occupied territories to unite and participate in protests against the Prawer plan and announced the completion of the preparations for the 1st of August.

The Israeli Knesset has approved the Prawer law last month after the first reading.
