"I was there that day with Haji Zaid Abu Halil with @VFPNational in Hebron. I am humbled to have stood in solidarity with him and many other Palestinian men and women defending their people and land from occupation. I will always be awed by Haji Zaid Abu Halil’s courage and steadfastness. He stood alone in front of a line of Israeli guns twice. Once when the Israelis were shooting at us, that is in the video circulating, and then again when the Israeli border police resumed firing. It was remarkable and that memory of his boldness and determination will never leave me. Bless his memory and bless his resistance. Free Palestine (The video circulating is from the first time he stood in front of the Israeli guns. The video in this post shows the second time. For more video of this protest, please go to the documentary linked in my reply to this message.)"

On October 7, between 3 and 4 am, Israeli troops raided the home of 66-year-old Ziad Abu Hlail in Dura, in Al-Khalil governorate, West Bank. The soldiers were there to arrest his son. They ransacked the house and beat Ziad, according to his son Murad.
His widow shared details of the raid: “We were asleep at 4 a.m. when the army surrounded the house and arrested my son. They took him out of the house. His father wanted to run after him, but they didn’t let him. They pushed the door into him, and he fell and died. He became a martyr. We called the ambulance and it didn’t arrive. God took his soul when he was at home, the ambulance didn’t take him to hospital.”
Legacy: Ziad Abu Hlail, was a prominent Palestinian non-violent activist, and was often seen peacefully confronting Israeli forces in videos, preventing soldiers from arresting or firing at young Palestinians.
His defiance in the face of Israeli soldiers earned him renown, especially when he responded to a soldier complaining about children throwing rocks at them with "Bihimmish-بهمش" (Arabic dialect which translates to "It doesn't matter" or "I don't care".) back in 2015.
His home was raided by IDF troops at dawn on August 5, 2017, ransacking the house and beating following his participation in protests against the construction of military tower in the village of Kharsa, south of the city of Dura.
