Thousands of Palestinians participated in the funeral of the journalist Shireen Abu Aqleh to her final resting place at the Mount Zion cemetery in Al-Quds despite attacks on mourners by Israeli occupation soldiers.

The occupation forces prevented thousands of Palestinians from entering the cemetery, allowed the entrance of only first-class relatives of the journalist Abu Akil, and erected barricades on the road leading to the cemetery to hinder citizens' access.

The occupation forces suppressed the funeral, while the body was taken out  from the hospital, and brutally beat mourners, dropping gas and sound bombs, injuring dozens of them with asphyxiation, bruises and fractures. The casket almost fell out of the mourners' hands, forcing them to return it to the hospital and transport the body by the dead car.
