Medical sources said a young man was shot with a live round in the abdomen, suffering a serious injury, and three others were shot with rubber-coated steel bullets, while dozens suffered the effects of tear gas inhalation.
The soldiers also fired many gas bombs directly hitting a number of homes, causing many families to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation.
