DUBAI: Two Palestinians were wounded and others suffered breathing problems after Israeli troops opened fire and used tear gas against Palestinians in the West Bank, Jordanian state news agency Petra reported.

Israeli troops stormed the town of Qabatya near Jenin province, triggering clashes with Palestinians that led to soldiers firing live rounds, rubber bullets and tear gas, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society said.

It added that troops raided the homes of two prisoners from the town.

Meanwhile, Israeli soldiers arrested 14 Palestinians in the cities of Ramallah, Hebron and Nablus.

Earlier on Sunday, the troops conducted a series of raids of suspected Hamas militants across the occupied West Bank, sparking a pair of gun battles in which five Palestinians were killed and two Israeli soldiers were seriously wounded.
