A number of citizens were asphyxiated by the Israeli occupation forces in the town of Barqa, north of Nablus, in the occupied West Bank.

The official of the settlement file north of the bank, Ghassan Daghles, said that the confrontations were violent as the occupation soldiers fired bullets and tear gas at the citizens, leaving a number of them asphyxiated.

Confrontations also broke out between citizens and the occupation forces, on the Al-Rajab street between Jenin and Nablus, without casualties.
