The soldiers also fired live rounds at a Palestinian ambulance, in addition to attacking medics who were trying to render the needed aid to wounded Palestinians. One Palestinian man who had been wounded by live bullets was taken by Israeli soldiers from the paramedics who were trying to administer aid, and arrested.

It is worth mentioning that the soldiers also closed all roads leading to Bab al-Amoud, before stopping and searching dozens of Palestinians, including journalists, and prevented them from entering the area.
The soldiers also forced all Palestinian stores and shops to close, to facilitate the provocative tour and processions of the illegal colonialist settlers.
