A number of citizens suffered suffocation on Monday after Israeli occupation forces fired tear gas and sound bombs in the town of Sa'ir, northeast of Hebron, in the southern West Bank.
According to local sources, the occupation forces fired a barrage of tear gas and sound bombs at citizens in the Wadi al-Sharq area of the town, causing a number of them to suffer from suffocation due to inhaling the gas. They were treated on the spot.
The bombs also caused fires to break out on agricultural land owned by citizens, amid fears that the fire could spread due to winds and the difficulty of accessing the area.
This incident comes amid ongoing escalation by occupation forces in the Hebron Governorate, which has witnessed repeated raids and attacks against residents and their property.
