15 Palestinians Injured in West Bank Protest

At least 15 Palestinians were injured during a peaceful protest in Tulkarm, West Bank, against the construction of a new illegal Israeli settlement outpost. The Israeli army responded with live ammunition and tear gas, leading to clashes in Beit Lid, where one protester was shot and others suffered from tear gas inhalation. Activists had gathered following Friday prayers to oppose the settlement expansion, while illegal settlers were also reported vandalizing olive trees in Masafer Yatta. Since the Gaza conflict began two years ago, over 1,068 Palestinians have been killed, with the International Court of Justice declaring Israel’s occupation illegal.
