RAMALLAH, Palestine (AA) – Two Palestinians have been injured by Israeli fire in the occupied West Bank, according to local medics.
Clashes erupted in the town of Beit Ummar, north of Hebron, after Israeli forces fired tear gas canisters at a school, eyewitnesses said.
Dozens suffered temporary asphyxiation from the Israeli tear gas, including several students, witnesses said.
Two Palestinians were badly injured by Israeli live fire during the clashes, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said in a statement.
