Clashes broke out between Palestinians and Israeli occupation forces on Thursday evening in the village of Qibya, west of Ramallah.

According to local sources, occupation forces stormed the village and raided the house of the family of the martyr Ahmed Yassin Ghaidan, who killed an Israeli soldier in Kedumim earlier on Thursday. Israeli troops fired rubber-coated bullets and tear gas canisters at Palestinians. 

The same sources added that the Israeli army obstructed the work of the press crews, prevented them from covering the clashes, and forced the journalists to leave the vicinity of the family's house.
