Hebron: Several Palestinians suffocated from tear gas fired by Israeli forces this evening during a military incursion into the town of Beit Ummar, north of Hebron, according to a local activist.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, media activist Mohammad Awwad reported that several Palestinian residents experienced tear gas suffocation during a raid on the home of the slain Palestinian, Waleed Mohammad Khalil Sabarneh, 18, in the Jabal Ammar area. Sabarneh was killed by Israeli soldiers earlier today, north of Hebron.
The soldiers caused damage to the home's furniture and belongings, detained his parents for interrogation, and confiscated all mobile phones belonging to the family. Confrontations erupted in the area, with soldiers firing rubber-coated rounds, stun grenades, and tear gas canisters, leading to more cases of tear gas inhalation. Additionally, the forces prevented worshippers from leaving the Beit Ummar Grand Mosque following the evening and night prayers.
Israeli forces also raided the home of Imran Al-Atrash, 18, who was killed alongside Sabarneh, in the Wadi Al-Hariyya area of Hebron. Several family members were detained and subjected to field interrogation during the operation.
