One Palestinian youth was injured and scores suffered suffocation when Israeli occupation troops dispersed rallies in the West Bank on Friday.

The 17-year-old young man was shot in the leg.

The soldiers attacked the weekly non-violent protests against settlements and the closure of a street.

They fired tear gas and rubber-coated bullets on the protesters, leaving scores of them suffocated.

The protesters carried Palestinian flags and marched while chanting for liberation and the release of all detainees.

The troops also stormed houses of residents.
