Israeli occupation dismisses Palestinian teachers from job

RAMALLAH - 25 August 2017: An Israeli newspaper website wrote on Friday that Israel's Ministry of Education targets Palestinian teachers working in schools in Al Quds and other 1948 areas.

Some 12 Palestinian teachers have been dismissed or suspended for allegedly having incited students to use violence against the Israeli army.

The website of the Hebrew newspaper said that the education ministry considered an acting scene in a school play, showing a student dressed in an Israeli army uniform shooting another, as an act of incitement against the Israeli army.

The website also added that the ministry established a special department to follow up this issue and surveil the Palestinian teachers who allegedly encourage violence against Israel.
