Nablus:Five Palestinian women, including an elderly woman, experienced tear gas inhalation when Israeli forces fired tear gas canisters at them in the village of Yatma, south of Nablus. The women were harvesting olives at the time of the incident.
According to Palestine news and Information Agency – WAFA, the local ambulance service from Qabalan town provided medical assistance to the women for suffocation after Israeli forces entered the agricultural land in the northern part of the village. The forces claimed the area was classified as Area C, under full Israeli control, and forced the women to leave.
Elsewhere, the villages of al-Mughayyir and Ein Yabrud, east of Ramallah, faced attacks by Israeli colonists, reportedly under the protection of occupation forces. These attacks involved the theft of olive crops and agricultural equipment.
