The Israeli army has suspended a senior officer who struck a pro-Palestinian protester in the face with a gun. Lieutenant-Colonel Shalom Eisner was suspended after a video of the incident was put on the Internet. It showed him holding an M-16 rifle and shouting at demonstrators taking part in a bicycle rally in the occupied West Bank on Saturday. The officer suddenly struck a Danish national in the face with the gun, Reuters reports. The protester, named as Andreas Ias, fell to the ground and was carried away by activists. He was treated for light injuries and said on Monday that he was well. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the officer's actions.
