A video was circulated on social media today (Tuesday), allegedly documenting soldiers arresting an elderly man using violence, while suppressing a protest demonstration against the expropriation of land from the village of Shufa, near Tulkarm.

In the section, the soldiers are seen slapping the elderly man, who is named Abu Hanun, on the ground, and one of the soldiers presses his foot over his face to handcuff him.

Due to the resemblance to the action that led to the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis three months ago, the video is being distributed by Palestinians alongside the hashtag #PalestineLivesMatters - similar to the call that accompanies the fight against police violence against blacks in the United States.
