The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) arrested Tuesday afternoon six Palestinians including a child when clashes broke out near Ofer prison in Ramallah.
Heavy firing of teargas bombs was monitored during the clashes leaving a number of protesters suffering breathing problems.
Journalists have been also attacked by IOF while covering the events.
The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) pointed out that five Palestinian youths and a 13-year-old child were detained and taken to a nearly investigation center.
The clashes erupted following a demonstration organized by the students of Birzeit University protesting the IOF assassination of Basel al-Araj in Ramallah on Monday.
The protesters chanted slogans demanding an end to Israeli occupation and security coordination between Israel and the Palestinian Authority.
Earlier Monday Basel al-Araj was fatally gunned down by IOF at his family home in the central West Bank province of Ramallah.
