Clashes Break Out Between Zionist Troops, Palestinians



WEST BANK (Dispatches) – Clashes have broken out in the Wet Bank between Zionist troops and Palestinian protesters, who took to the streets for the fifth consecutive day to censure a U.S. decision to recognize al-Quds as Zionist regime’s "capital.”
Zionist troops have fired tear gas and rubber bullets in several areas across the occupied West Bank, including Ramallah and Nablus, to disperse the Palestinian demonstrators, who threw rocks at them in return.
Last week, U.S. President Donald Trump said Washington was recognizing al-Quds as the regime’s "capital” and tasked his officials with making preparations for transferring the embassy from Tel Aviv to the occupied city.
Trump’s announcement triggered harsh criticisms from the entire global community, including from the regime’s very own allies.
Several protests have been held in many countries over the past days against the U.S. and the occupying regime.
Earlier in the day, demonstrators in Indonesia and Malaysia held similar rallies to voice their support for the Palestinian nation.
Indonesian protesters torched U.S. and Zionist regime’s flags in front of the American embassy in the capital, Jakarta.
In the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur, protesters also gathered in front of the American embassy, burning an effigy of Trump.
In previous days, massive demonstrations and clashes with protesters were reported in many countries.
