A number of students from Al-Khader schools, south of Bethlehem, suffered from suffocation on Wednesday, as a result of the Israeli occupation army firing toxic gas bombs during its raid on the town.

Local sources reported that the occupation forces attacked the students of Al-Khader schools while they were leaving their schools after the end of the official school day, where they fired tear gas and sound bombs at them, which led to a number of them suffering from suffocation.

The occupation forces stormed the town in the morning, and were stationed in the areas of "Al-Baraka" and "Al-Tall" in the old town, and the Balou' area, and fired tear gas and sound bombs around Al-Khader Girls Secondary School, and towards shops and citizens passing by in the Balou' area.

It is noteworthy that the occupation forces have recently escalated their repeated attacks on students at Al-Khader schools, causing suffocation injuries.
