Scores of Palestinians in the West Bank city of Ramallah on Friday suffered suffocation as a result of tear gas fired by Israeli soldiers to disperse a peaceful march against the building of the separating wall and Israeli settlements.

Also, a number of farmlands caught fire in the village of Bil'in in Ramallah, a popular committee to combat the wall and the settlement said in a statement.

It added that protests and rallies will continue until the Palestinian territories are liberated from the occupation.
