The Israeli regime’s forces have attacked the Palestinians protesting the regime’s illegal settlement activities throughout the Tel Aviv-occupied West Bank.
The protests broke out across various locations in the West Bank, namely the northern cities of Nablus and Qalqilya as well as the southern city of al-Khalil (Hebron), on Friday, the Palestinian Information Center news agency reported.
The troops’ attacks on the rallies led to clashes between the forces and the protesting Palestinians.
The Israeli troops deployed live rounds, rubber-coated steel bullets, tear gas canisters, and sound grenades to quell the demonstrations, injuring dozens of Palestinians.
More than 600,000 Israelis live in over 230 settlements built since the regime’s occupation of the West Bank in 1967.
The international community views the settlements as illegal under international law and the Geneva Conventions due to their construction on the occupied territory.
