Palestinians injured in renewed clashes in West Bank

Thursday 10-February-2022

Nine Palestinians were injured as clashes broke out with the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) near the northern entrance to the city of Al-Bireh and in Ain Al-Sultan refugee camp in Jericho on Wednesday evening.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported seven injuries during Al-Bireh confrontations.

A young man was hit and injured with rubber bullets while six others suffered from teargas inhalation.

The clashes erupted when IOF soldiers suppressed a Palestinian march condemning the Israeli assassination of three Palestinians earlier Tuesday.

Two other young men were also shot and injured as clashes broke out in Ein Al-Sultan camp in Jericho after being stormed by a group of Jewish settlers.

The IOF fired teargas bombs and live ammunition to provide protection for the hordes of settlers who were visiting a synagogue built in the area.

In al-Khalil several Palestinians were injured as angry protests were held condemning Tuesday’s assassination of three Palestinians.

Students were among those injured in the event during which the IOF fired teargas bombs and live ammunition.

At least one young man suffered live shot injuries while dozens suffered breathing problems.
