A number of Palestinian citizens were injured on Friday afternoon when Israeli occupation forces (IOF) attacked the weekly demonstration of Kafr Qaddum village near Qalqilya in the West Bank.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said in a brief statement that 13 Palestinian demonstrators were injured by IOF tear gas canisters and rubber-coated metal bullets.

The Palestinian residents of Kafr Qaddum every Friday take to the streets to protest the ongoing settlement construction at the expense of Palestinian lands in the West Bank.
