Israeli forces attack students‘ rally protesting US-touted deal, dozens suffocate

 

HEBRON, Sunday, February 2, 2020 (WAFA) – Dozens of university students suffered from tear gas suffocation as Israeli forces violently suppressed a students’ rally in the northern area of the occupied West Bank city of Hebron.

WAFA correspondent said that Israeli soldiers fired live ammunition and tear gas bombs towards students, who were protesting against the US-touted deal of the century, causing dozens to suffocate due to tear gas inhalation. They were all treated at the scene.

A journalist who was identified as Abdul-Mohsen al-Shalaldeh, 27, was struck in the head by a tear gas canister, which necessitated his transfer to hospital for treatment, where his condition was described as stable.
