The police detained four left-wing Israeli activists Friday afternoon
during a demonstration of Palestinian and Israelis in the West Bank
village of Budrus, where part of the security fence is being constructed.
The four were detained for entering an area declared "closed military zone".
It is expected that the four would be released with restrictions. Budrus has
been the scene of violent clashes between IDF forces and locals and protesters
due to the preparations under way for the building of the security fence.
Budrus, located near the city of Modi'in and eight kilometers from Ben-Gurion
Airport, has become the hub of anti-fence activity over the past few months.

The West Bank security fence runs along the western edge of the village,
cutting some farmers off from their land.

* [Ed. Notes: Nationalists on both sides prefer to hide the fact
That the Israeli activists involved with the Palestinian vilagers
are mostly anarchists of the Anarchists Against The Wall initiative]
