At least 37 Palestinians were injured during clashes with Israeli soldiers in the West Bank city of Nablus, medics said on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said in a statement that among the injured were three shot by live ammunition and nine by rubber bullets, while the others inhaled teargas, reports Xinhua news agency.<\/p>\n
The fierce clashes broke out on Friday between anti-settlement protesters and Israeli soldiers in the villages of Beita, Beit Dajan, and Kafr Qaddum.<\/p>\n
The protesters burned tires and threw stones at the Israeli soldiers stationed on the perimeters of the villages, they said.<\/p>\n
Israeli authorities have not commented on the incidents yet.<\/p>\n
In the June 1967 Middle East war, Israel occupied the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem, which are claimed by the Palestinians, and has controlled the areas ever since.<\/p>\n
Tension in the West Bank has been mounting over the past few days after the Israeli army intensified its military actions against Palestinian militants and activists.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
