An elderly was injured after he was hit by a gas canister in his leg, while others suffocated from teargas inhalation when Israeli occupation forces attacked the weekly nonviolent protest in the village of Bil’in, to the west of Ramallah, according to local sources.

Israeli soldiers fired teargas canisters towards Palestinians who were partaking in a protest against Israeli settlements, injuring an elderly and causing many cases of suffocation among the protesters.
