On Friday, Israeli soldiers injured many Palestinians during the weekly nonviolent procession in Beit Dajan, east of Nablus’s northern West Bank city.
Media sources said the Palestinians marched to their lands, carrying Palestinian flags and chanting for liberation before the soldiers attacked them with rubber-coated steel bullets, gas bombs, and concussion grenades.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said the soldiers caused many Palestinians to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation.
The Popular Committee organized the procession for Defending Beit Dajan Land, and the Wall & Colonization Resistance Commission organized the procession in coordination with Palestinian factions and social groups to defend Palestinian lands threatened with the illegal annexation by Israel.
The Palestinians have been holding ongoing processions on their lands in Sbeih Mountain in Beita and in 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.
