JENIN, Sunday, May 29, 2022 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces today attacked scores of Palestinian workers near the Israeli segregation barrier outside the villages of Anin, Rummana, Araqa and Zububa, to the west of Jenin in the north of the West Bank, as the latter were heading to their workplaces inside Israel, according to Palestinian security sources.

Soldiers reportedly chased the workers and attacked them with rubber-coated rounds and teargas, causing many cases of suffocation from gas inhalation among the workers.

Palestinian workers in the occupied West Bank usually opt for alternative routes to avoid overcrowding at major Israeli checkpoints in their daily journey to their workplaces, and are often attacked by Israeli soldiers whenever they try to cross the Israeli segregation barrier.
