Wednesday 30-August-2023

Dozens of Palestinian citizens suffered from their exposure to tear gas on Wednesday during clashes with the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) in al-Khalil.

According to local sources the IOF stormed Beit Ummar town northwest of Tulkarem which provoked clashes with local youths.

The IOF intensively fired live ammunition and tear gas canisters during the clashes which caused many citizens including children and women inside homes to suffer from inhaling tear gas.

Meanwhile the IOF kidnaped Akram Abu Sheikha the father of the young man who was shot and critically wounded in al-Khalil after he allegedly carried out a car-ramming attack on Israeli soldiers.

In a separate incident the Israeli occupation army bulldozed on the same day swaths of agricultural land and stone fences belonging to a Palestinian woman in Khirbet Suba west of al-Khalil.

A few days ago the IOF stormed the same area and bulldozed dozens of almond and citrus trees as well as stone fences.
