PALESTINIANS SUFFOCATE FROM ISRAELI TEAR GAS DURING CLASHES WEST OF JENIN

TEHRAN (FNA)- A number of the Palestinians suffocated due to inhaling tear gas fired at them by the Israeli forces during clashes that broke out in the village Anin to the West of Jenin.

Local and security sources informed WAFA that the Israeli forces stormed the village late Friday, where they proceeded to fire tear gas canisters and stub grenades toward the Palestinian village locals, causing many of them to suffer from suffocation, including 7-year-old Ameen Issa, and a woman, whose case necessitated their transfer to hospital for medical treatment.

An increasing number of unarmed and peaceful Palestinians were either killed or seriously injured as a result of Israel’s constant use of tear gas against Palestinians.

Tear gas is a chemical irritant that severely affects the eyes, respiratory system and mucous membranes of the nose and throat. If fired directly at demonstrators, their impact can result in severe injuries and even death.

Early December 2014, Palestinian minister without portfolio Zeyad Abu Ein died due to tear gas inhalation and after being directly hit in the chest by an Israeli soldier during a peaceful protest marking the United Nations International Year of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. He was transferred to hospital where he was pronounced dead shortly afterwards.

On December 2011, Mustafa Tamimi, 28 from Ramallah’s village of Nabi Saleh, died from critical wounds he sustained when an Israeli soldier fired a tear gas canister directly at his head from a short distance.
