During Israeli occupation forces (IOF) operations across the West Bank on Saturday, a large number of Palestinians were injured.

The IOF shot rubber-coated metals and teargas bombs at Palestinians in the Huwara hamlet in Nablus and the Kafr Qaddoum village in Qalqilya, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, injuring 30 Palestinians and inflicting breathing issues for others.

Meanwhile, a Palestinian young man was hit in the head with a rubber-coated bullet amid riots sparked by settlers' attack on the Huwara hamlet near Nablus, according to Ghassan Douglas, who is in charge of the West Bank's settlements dossier.

In a separate incident, Jewish settlers in al-Quds attacked youngsters in Bab al-Silsilah and Silwan village, escorted by Israeli police. In addition, as Israeli forces invaded the Bab al-Rahma prayer location east of Al-Aqsa Mosque, fighting occurred.

In a separate incident, Israeli police physically attacked a young man and a woman near Bab al-Amud in Occupied al-Quds and arrested them.

Hordes of Jewish settlers attacked the Bab al-Amud area in al-Quds' old city earlier in the morning, performing provocative Talmudic prayers under Israeli police protection.
