Several Palestinians were injured by live Israeli fire, and dozens more were injured by tear gas as Israeli military forces brutally dispersed anti-settlement protests in the northern portion of the occupied West Bank.

According to Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors Israeli settlement activities in the northern West Bank, extremist Jewish settlers barged their way into Qaryout village, located 28 kilometers (17 miles) southeast of Nablus, on Friday, sparking clashes with local residents.

Israeli forces then opened fire on the protesting villagers, wounding many of them with rubber-coated steel bullets and tear gas. Hundreds of people were affected by tear gas amid skirmishes with Israeli forces and settlers.

Similar confrontations occurred as Israeli troops repressed anti-settlement demonstrations in Beita town and Beit Dajan hamlet, south and east of Nablus.

According to the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), two Palestinian civilians were injured in Beita and twelve more were injured in Beit Dajan. 

In a similar occurrence, a number of Palestinians were injured as Israeli forces opened fire on protestors in Kafr Qaddum town with rubber-coated metal bullets and tear gas bombs.

Since July 2011, Kafr Qaddum has seen weekly marches by residents seeking the reopening of the town's main entrance, which has been closed for many years.

Meanwhile, the Palestine Information Center (Mo'ta) reports that in the last 24 hours, Resistance fighters have carried out 27 retaliation operations.

Young Palestinian protestors fought with Israeli soldiers in Al-Eizariya town, the Bab al-Asbat area of al-Quds' Old City, the Silwan district in East al-Quds, and the Shuafat refugee camp.

In response to the provocative Flag March, Palestinians fought radical settlers at the Lions' Gate of al-Quds, wounding one Israeli police officer and three Israelis.

Confrontations also erupted at Silwad, al-Mazra'a al-Qibliya village, Marah Rabah village, Husan town, Tuqu' town, Umm Rukba district on Bethlehem's outskirts, Beit Ummar town, and al-Arroub refugee camp.

On May 9, the Israeli occupation launched a five-day aggression against the Gaza Strip, targeting residential houses in the north, center, and south of the Strip.

In retaliation, the Al-Quds Brigades and the Palestinian Resistance factions launched Operation Avenging the Free, in which they fired advanced rockets and missiles that bypassed the Iron Dome and targeted several Israeli settlements, occupied cities, and occupation sites.
