BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Hundreds of people rallied in the Gaza Strip and West Bank on Sunday to condemn the death of a Palestinian prisoner in Israeli custody.
In the West Bank, Israeli forces and protestors clashed in Hebron, Beit Ummar, al-Arrub refugee camp, and Tulkarem, with soldiers firing tear gas and sound grenades at demonstrators, locals said.
Palestinian factions in Gaza launched solidarity marches to condemn Jadarat's death, Ma'an's correspondent said.
An Israeli army spokeswoman said that "hundreds of Palestinians threw rocks and burned tires in Hebron, and security personnel responded with riot dispersal means."
One man was injured by rubber bullets and an Israeli soldier was injured after being hit by a rock, military sources said. more
