Thursday, two young Palestinians were arrested and dozens were left injured after clashes with the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) at the northern entrance to the city of Al-Bireh.

The clash erupted after the IOF suppressed a march that Palestinians organized on the 17th anniversary of the death of Yasser Arafat.

Palestine Red Crescent Society reported over 40 injuries, 26 of which are due to suffocation as a result of tear gas inhalation, 14 from rubber-coated metal bullets, one of which sustained an injury to the chest and was taken to hospital, and six injuries resulted from falling.
