5 Palestinians injured by Israeli live fire in Ramallah

Friday 8-March-2019

At least five Palestinians were injured on Friday afternoon during clashes with the Israeli occupation forces in Beit Sira village in Ramallah.

Dozens of Palestinians marched peacefully in Beit Sira following Friday prayer to ask the Israeli authorities to release the bodies of two Palestinians who were killed on Monday.

The Israeli forces targeted the protesters with live ammunition rubber-coated metal bullets and tear gas bombs. Five Palestinians suffered live fire wounds and dozens others choked on tear gas.

Local sources reported that the protesters managed to remove the fence which the Israeli forces placed around the village’s lands a few years ago.

The peaceful protesters waved Palestinian flags and chanted slogans condemning the Israeli crimes.

The Israeli forces on Monday killed Amir Darraj and Yousef Anqawi while they were on their way to work in Kafr Ni’ma village in Ramallah.
