A young man was wounded by live bullets in the foot in Beit Ummar, north of Hebron, when Israeli troops attacked protesters gathered for the weekly march to protest the Israeli colonial expansion and blatant theft of Palestinian land in the area.

In Jenin, in the northern West Bank, a young man was wounded by live bullets in the thigh, when the Israeli military invaded the area and began firing live ammunition and tear gas at civilians.

During the Israeli occupation’s suppression of the weekly anti-settlement march in Beit Dajan, east of Nablus, a number of Palestinians suffered the effects of tear gas inhalation, and one young man suffered burns on his hand as a result of being hit by a gas canister directly.

The Israeli occupation forces also fired a barrage of stun grenades and tear gas at Palestinians protesting in front of a building threatened with demolition, in the Wadi Qaddum neighborhood in the town of Silwan, south of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.

 

Israeli authorities have issued a demolition order with the express and stated purpose of displacing the Palestinian landowners in order that the Israeli Jerusalem municipality can colonize the property through military force.

This is in addition to the two Palestinians who were wounded by rubber-coated metal bullets in the Kufur Qaddum march, east of Qalqilya.
