On Friday, Israeli soldiers shot a young man and caused dozens to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation in the Al-Ezariya town, east of the occupied capital Jerusalem, in the West Bank.

Media sources said the soldiers invaded an area near the local cemetery and assaulted a few Palestinians, leading to protests.

They added that the soldiers fired many live rounds, rubber-coated steel bullets, gas bombs, and concussion grenades.

One Palestinian was injured by live fire, and dozens suffered the effects of tear gas inhalation, cuts, and bruises.
