Three Palestinians were injured and three others including a journalist were arrested by the Israeli occupation forces on Tuesday as they protested Israeli attempts to grab hold of Palestinian lands in Ramallah.
Israeli forces detained photographer Baha Nasr and the head of the nearby Kafr Nimeh village council Khaldoun al-Deek.
The arrests were carried out as Palestinian locals came out to stop Israeli settlers from leveling Palestinian lands when soldiers giving cover to the settlers attacked the Palestinians showering them with tear gas.
Palestinians living in Ras Karkar to the west of Ramallah tried to prevent settlers from taking over their land to open a road leading to illegal settlement outposts nearby.
