At least 10 protesters were injured in clashes with Border Police in a demonstration against Israel’s West Bank security fence. Forces fired rubber bullets at protesters, who gather weekly in the village of Bil’in.

Also Friday, Palestinian youths clashed with Israeli soldiers at a road block north of Jerusalem. Two protesters were treated after being shot in the legs.
