Local sources said that the ZOF soldiers fired teargas bombs at the demonstrators in Beita village to the south of Nablus, who were protesting the confiscation of large swaths of lands of Beita and Huwara villages to build a road for Jewish settlers.

They added that many suffered breathing difficulty while an ambulance car was hit with a gas bomb that shattered its windshield.

National factions had called for the march to protest the building of the road that would deprive both villages of large areas of their lands.
