Israeli soldiers injured, Friday, four Palestinians with rubber-coated steel bullets and caused dozens to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation, during the weekly procession in Kufur Qaddoum, east of Qalqilia, in northern West Bank.
Morad Eshteiwi, the media spokesperson of the Popular Committee against the Annexation Wall and Colonies in Qalqilia, said the Palestinians marched from the center of the village while chanting against the ongoing Israeli violation against them and their lands.
He added that the soldiers instantly attacked the procession with rubber-coated steel bullets, gas bombs, and concussion grenades.
Medical sources said four young men were shot with rubber-coated steel bullets, and dozens suffered the effects of tear gas inhalation, before receiving treatment by local medics.
Kufur Qaddoum witnesses frequent Israeli invasions, assaults, and abductions as it continues to hold its weekly nonviolent processions against the illegal Annexation Wall and colonies, and against the closure of the main road, which was blockaded by the military eighteen years ago, to enable easy access for colonialist settlers driving to and from the Kedumim colony, built on private Palestinian lands.
