On Friday, Israeli soldiers injured a child and caused many Palestinians to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation during the weekly nonviolent procession against the illegal colonies in Beit Dajan, east of Nablus, in the northern West Bank.
Dozens of Palestinians gathered on their lands and nonviolently marched while chanting against Israel’s ongoing land theft and illegal annexations to build and expand its colonies.
The Palestinians chanted for the liberation of Palestine and in support of the detainees in Israeli prisons facing constant violations.
The soldiers fired many rubber-coated steel bullets, gas bombs, and concussion grenades at the Palestinians to force them to leave their lands.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said the soldiers shot a child with a gas bomb in the arm and caused many Palestinians to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation.
The Palestinians have been holding ongoing processions on their lands in Sbeih Mountain in Beita and Beit Dajan after a group of illegal Israeli colonizers installed an outpost atop the Mountain.
During these protests, the soldiers injured thousands of Palestinians and killed several others, including children.
The Mountain, owned by the Palestinians, has significant strategic importance, especially since if the colonizers occupied it, the colony would lead to the annexation of 20 Dunams of Palestinian lands and would also lead to the isolation of a large area of Palestinian lands.
In related news, dozens of illegal Israeli colonizers and soldiers invaded several areas in Jericho, in the northeastern West Bank, especially the Ein Al-Sultan refugee amp, the archeological area in Al-Qilt Valley, and the Old Tal Ariha area, leading to protests.
