'I Want Palestine to be Free:' Ahed Tamimi to teleSUR
- 6 years ago
It all started on a Monday when Trump declared Jerusalem the capital of Israel:
there were a lot of tensions
“Soldiers broke into my village and started shooting at homes, then they went to the mountain and shot a small kid, 15 years old, who was on the verge of death, he was my cousin. The soldier who shot him came back and stopped at my house's door … so obviously when I saw that, I told him to go away but he wouldn't so I slapped him.
Ahed explained how she was arrested five days later
and how she stayed in prison for eight months.
“First they accused me of attacking a military officer, but then when they presented the charges, there were 12 of them.”
