On Friday, Israeli soldiers attacked the weekly procession in Kufur Qaddoum town, east of the northern West Bank city of Qalqilia, and injured many Palestinians.

Hundreds of Palestinians marched from the center of the village after conducting Friday prayers at the local mosque while chanting against the seriously escalating Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people, especially in Jenin.

The Israeli army attacked the protesters with many live rounds, rubber-coated steel bullets, and gas bombs.

Medical sources said the soldiers shot three young men with rubber-coated steel bullets and caused dozens to suffer the effects of tear gas inhalation.

The Palestinians have been holding weekly processions in Kufur Qaddoum for the last eighteen years, demanding the army to reopen the village’s main road that the soldiers blockaded to allow easy access to the illegal colonizers driving to and from Kedumim illegal colony built on stolen Palestinian lands.

On Thursday, Israeli soldiers killed Yousef Yahia Abdul-Karim Mheisin, 22, near Ramallah in the central West Bank, during a procession condemning the Israeli onslaught on Jenin, leading to the killing of nine Palestinians, including one woman and two siblings.

The slain Palestinians in Jenin have been identified as:
