Palestinians mourn Nabulsi, confront IOF in Al-Bireh
Two days after the ceasefire that "Israel" asked for, the Israeli occupation kills four Palestinians in one day, triggering confrontations.
A number of Palestinian youths confronted the attacks of the Israeli occupation forces on Tuesday afternoon at the northern entrance to the city of Al-Bireh, opposite the illegal settlement of "Beit El" in the middle of the occupied West Bank, as well as at the entrance to Beit Lahm and Al-Khalil.
The Palestinian Red Crescent announced that 15 were wounded, three of them with live bullets, at the entrance to Al-Bireh, following the brutal attempt to suppress a march condemning the crime of assassinating three Palestinians in the city of Nablus earlier today.
A Safa agency correspondent stated that demonstrators marched toward the northern entrance of the city of Ramallah after the closure of the shops, denouncing the assassination of three Resistance fighters in Nablus.
He also explained that young men threw stones and Molotov cocktails at the occupation forces and closed the roads with burning tires, while the Resistance fighters opened fire and fired gas bombs at the occupation forces, who were using snipers during their attack.

The Israeli occupation sent reinforcements in the vicinity of the settlement and on the hills opposite to Al-Bireh while obstructing the citizens' movement in the area.
At the same time, journalist Muhammad Samreen told Al Mayadeen that the occupation forces fired a heavy barrage of tear gas canisters at Palestinian youths at the entrance to Al-Bireh, pointing out that ambulances were parked at the entrance of Al-Bireh.
He said that there are calls for a comprehensive strike in the West Bank tomorrow and also for several vigils in the occupied territories this evening.
Mourning Nabulsi
Tens of thousands of Palestinians gathered on Tuesday in the city of Nablus for a mass funeral procession to mourn the Nablus martyrs, the leader of Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi, and his two companions, Islam Sabbouh and Ibrahim Taha.

The funeral procession began in front of Rafidia Hospital, amid outrage, patriotic chants, and mourning, coinciding with confrontations with the Israeli occupation forces.
Hundreds of people surrounded Rafidiyeh hospital in Nablus when Ibrahim al-Nabulsi reportedly arrived in in very critical condition.
