Brawl erupts during prisoner support event in Hebron

HEBRON (Ma'an) -- A brawl erupted on Monday evening between participants in an event in solidarity with hunger-striking Palestinian prisoners in Hebron.

The dispute started after the head of the Palestinian prisoners’ society in Hebron, Amjad al-Najjar, mentioned names of prisoners who are not on a hunger strike.

When he mentioned the name of prisoners Abbas al-Sayed, Hamas leader Aziz Dweik responded by saying “you are a liar.”

Arguments started after that which escalated to fighting and chair-throwing.
