Dozens of Palestinians were injured while three others were detained on Friday after the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) quelled dozens of protesters who were demonstrating in Jabal al-Risan area west of Ramallah in the West Bank.
Local sources said that Israeli forces fired rubber-coated steel rounds and teargas canisters at the protesters who were marching against Israel’s plan to confiscate hundreds of dunums of land in the area.
Many cases of suffocation from gas inhalation were reported during the protest while a paramedic was injured after IOF soldiers targeted an ambulance he was riding by a rubber-coated bullet.
The Israeli soldiers also arrested three protesters including a preacher and a local activist.
