Jerusalem24 – Several Palestinians were suffocated early today from teargas fired by Israeli soldiers during a raid of the northern West Bank city of Salfit, according to local sources.
They said that an undercover Israeli special force entered the old section of Salfit using a Palestinian civilian vehicle in an attempt to detain Palestinians before being uncovered by the local residents.
An Israeli military force in full uniform came to the rescue of the special force, triggering confrontations during which the soldiers opened fire towards stone-throwing youths and houses, causing a number to suffocate after inhaling a large amount of teargas.
During the raid, the soldiers broke into several houses and ransacked them, said the sources.
