Israeli occupation forces (IOF) quelled on Wednesday a Palestinian march rejecting settlement activity in Beit Dajan, east of Nablus, in the northern West Bank.

Several Palestinians suffered breathing problems as a result of the IOF violent quelling of the peaceful march.

Dozens of citizens participated in the mass demonstration that marched to the eastern lands of the town, on which the Jewish settlers established an outpost.

The IOF soldiers cut off the path of the march, prevented protesters from reaching the settlement outpost and fired tear gas canisters and metal bullets at them.
