The Israeli Haaretz newspaper said that some settlers broke into Al-Amoud Gate arena in the occupied Al-Quds as part of the flag march course although this part was not agreed on with the occupation's police.

The police allowed the settlers to hold the march in the arena. Knesset member Itamar and other Knesset members participated and performed the flag dance and chanted "Death to Arabs". They also called for burning down Palestinian villages.

Before the march, the occupation forces oppressed the Jerusalemites in several areas in Al-Quds. 17 citizens were injured in the confrontations with the occupation in the Old Town and its surroundings according to the Red Crescent.

In the occupied West Bank, the forces arrested several citizens in different break-ins across the cities. They broke into Beita town in Nablus and arrested Salem Hamayil, who is injured, and his brother Saleem who is a freed prisoner; and the freed prisoner Baraa Adili.

In Salfit, the forces arrested the freed prisoner and writer Waleed Harb, the freed prisoner Fadi Sawan and Adam Damri.
