At least 10 Palestinian were injured in clashes with the IDF in the West Bank village of Dura early Wednesday morning after troops attempted to arrest suspects in the Hebron area.
The military was conducting operations to arrest wanted Palestinians in the area of the village, the Walla news site reported.
Riots reportedly broke out against the soldiers, who responded with crowd-control munitions, injuring the 10 Palestinians.
Palestinian media reported that some of them were wounded by live fire.
The IDF confirmed troops used live fire from Ruger sniper rifles and riot dispersal measures to fend off Palestinians who attacked the soldiers with stones, firebombs and burning tires.
