The Israeli occupation forces suffocated tens of Palestinian students with poisonous gas as the forces oppressed a student march from Tuqu’ town south-east Bethlehem which commemorated late President Yasser Arafat’s martyrdom. The school was evacuated from students and faculty after being surrounding by the soldiers. Confrontations also erupted between school students and troops at Al-Fawwar southern entrance upon the student march that commemorated Arafat’s martyrdom anniversary.
