An unidentified artist painted a picture of American citizen George Floyd - who was killed by an American policeman - on the wall of the Israeli separation in the city of Bethlehem (south of the occupied West Bank).
Munther Amira, coordinator of the anti-settlement Popular Resistance Committees and the Israeli wall in Bethlehem, said: The drawing is "a message of solidarity from the oppressed Palestinian people, persecuted in the United States of America."
On the identity of the painter, the Palestinian activist said, "I was drawn at night, and the artist is anonymous."
"Since the incident of Floyd’s killing, we have organized a number of events condemning American practices against black skin, and the drawing is part of solidarity," Amira told Anatolia.
The killing of George Floyd last May 25 - by a policeman in the city of Minneapolis, Minnesota - resulted in angry reactions locally and internationally.
Since his death, tens of thousands in various countries of the world and American cities have staged large demonstrations, defying the curfew imposed in more than one state.
"We consider what Israel is doing as part of American policy, and the solidarity with George Floyd is not personal, but rather an attempt to create an international coalition against the US-led injustice under the title: The Coalition of the Oppressed," Palestinian activist Amira said.
Since the construction of the separation wall, many Palestinian and foreign artists have drawn their drawings on the wall, expressing their rejection and protest against its construction.
Israel began building the wall between the West Bank and Israel in 2002, during the reign of Ariel Sharon's government, and the Palestinians call it the "Apartheid Wall".
According to estimates, the area of the isolated and besieged Palestinian lands behind the wall is about 680 km, meaning that it eats about 12% of the area of the West Bank.
In 2004, the International Court of Justice of the United Nations adopted an advisory decision to condemn and criminalize the wall. The court's decision also considered Israeli settlement in all its forms illegal, and contrary to international law and legitimacy.
