Sunday 31-December-2017

The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Sunday morning clashed with Palestinian school students in Burin town south of Nablus in the West Bank.

Ibrahim Amran the principal of the Burin high school told the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) that skirmishes broke out between students from his school and soldiers at a nearby military watchtower.

He added that the soldiers fired tear gas at the students to disperse them and luckily no one was hurt during the events.

For the fourth week running the occupied Palestinian territories in the West Bank and Jerusalem have been seeing angry protests and clashes with Israeli soldiers in response to the US recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
