Palestinians clash with Israeli forces on Nakba Day

RAMALLAH: Palestinians in the West Bank clashed with Israeli forces Thursday, the 66th anniversary of the Nakba or “catastrophe” of the Jewish state’s creation when 760,000 Palestinians fled their homes.
About 150 people demanding the release of thousands of Palestinians held by Israel protested near Ofer prison, outside Ramallah, and border policemen shot one in the chest.
Palestinian medics said the wounded man was undergoing surgery in a Ramallah hospital.
