A military policeman was lightly injured Friday by a stone hurled at him during a protest near the Palestinian village of Kadum, in the West Bank.
Israeli security forces broke up the demonstration using riot dispersal methods.
In the Palestinian village of Beit Ummar south of Jerusalem, Palestinian demonstrators threw stones at an IDF officer, causing him light wounds. The officer was treated by a medical crew at the spot.
Riots erupted in various other locations in the West Bank Friday, with dozens of Palestinian protesters hurling rocks at Israeli security forces, including near the settlement of Ofra, and in the Palestinian villages of Bil’in and Ni’lin.
No casualties were reported.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
