People tried marching to the wall, but the Border Police officers and vehicles were waiting.
Initially, the demonstration was very peaceful, and no one was throwing any rocks.
The Border Police blocked the road, making it clear they would not allow the procession to move on.
A small three year old boy approached them, holding a Palestinian flag.
Some of the officers were by the vehicle, others were in the olive grove.
The two officers in this picture had an unfortunate mishap happen to them later on.
With the settlement behind them, the Border Police made it very clear whose interests they were here to defend.
They aimed their guns towards the demonstrators a few times.

Abed tried talking to them several times more, but it was very clear they had no intention of allowing the march to continue.
Clashes with the shebab broke out very soon afterwards.
