Dozens of young Palestinians were injured during confrontations with Israeli occupation forces in several areas of the occupied West Bank.

Confrontations broke out in the village of Kafr Malik, east of Ramallah, as residents responded to attacks by a group of settlers.

In the town of Kafr Qadum, Qalqilya, dozens of citizens were wounded during the confrontations, including 5, while others were suffocated by tear gas canisters and metal bullets.

The Director of Ambulance and Emergency at the Palestinian Red Crescent Society in Nablus, Ahmed Jibril, said 15 citizens were injured in the town of Beit Djan.

Several areas of the occupied West Bank are witnessing weekly peaceful demonstrations against settlement.
