Palestinians, along with foreign and left-wing Israeli activists, held a protest Friday in the occupied West Bank town of Qusra before heading toward three Palestinian homes that have been besieged by Israeli occupiers for five consecutive days, Anadolu reports.

The protesters gathered in the Ras al-Ain area of Qusra, south of Nablus, before moving toward the besieged homes to check on the residents and deliver essential supplies, an Anadolu correspondent reported.

Israeli troops prevented the activists from entering the homes, claiming the area was a “closed military zone.”

The protesters, however, managed to deliver food, water and other essential supplies to the residents.

Earlier, Israeli occupiers re-erected a tent outside the homes of three Palestinian families in the Ras al-Ain area as the siege entered its fifth consecutive day.
