Friday 23-December-2022

A one-and-a-half-year-old Palestinian baby girl was injured after Jewish settlers hurled stones at Palestinian vehicles near the village of Usarin on Friday the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said.

Clashes were reported on Friday between Palestinian youths and Israeli occupation forces (IOF) in several areas of the West Bank following the start of the weekly anti-settlement marches.

IOF soldiers fired rubber-coated metal bullets and tear gas bombs at Palestinian protestors to quell the anti-settlement marches in Beita and Beit Dajan villages in Nablus and in Kafr Qaddoum village in Qalqilya.

Meanwhile clashes were reported after the IOF attacked Palestinian protestors in Usarin town south of Nablus who called for releasing the body of martyr Ammar Muflih who was shot dead by the IOF in Huwara village south of Nablus weeks ago.

In addition Palestinian protestors called for removing the settlement outpost of Evyatar in Beita village south of the West Bank city of Nablus.

The PRCS reported that 33 Palestinian citizens suffered breathing problems in Beita Beit Dajan and Usarin villages while four Palestinian citizens were injured by rubber-coated metal bullets in Kafr Qaddoum.

In another development clashes erupted between Palestinian youths and IOF soldiers who facilitated the Jewish settlers’ raid into the water spring of the village of Qaryout south of Nablus.

Furthermore IOF soldiers surrounded the area of Khirbet Ibziq to the northeast of the West Bank city of Tubas confiscating a vehicle and photographing Palestinian structures in the area according to human rights activist Aref Daraghmeh.
