Clashes flare up as Israeli troops roll into Bethlehem

Friday 8-September-2017

Violent clashes burst out at daybreak Friday shortly after the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) stormed Bethlehem province in the southern West Bank.

A PIC news correspondent quoted local sources as stating that the IOF handed over interrogation writs and attacked Palestinian protesters with randomly-unleashed spates of rubber bullets and teargas canisters.

Palestinian anti-occupation youth responded by hurling stones and empty bottles at the heavily-armed occupation troops.

The Israeli soldiers further showered civilian homes with teargas grenades resulting in several suffocation cases and faints.

Youngsters Muhy al-Deen Hameed and Mohamed Shweiki were summoned to questioning in the process.
