A Palestinian child lost his left eye on Wednesday when Israeli occupation forces fired teargas canisters at demonstrators near Qalandia in occupied Jerusalem.
Medical sources said that 13-year-old Ahed Wahdan was seriously injured in his left eye when a teargas canister hit him in the face.
They said that he was carried to Ramallah government hospital then to the eye hospital in Jerusalem from where he is expected to be moved to Hadassah hospital in view of his critical condition.
IOF soldiers used rubber bullets and teargas to disperse Palestinian demonstrators who were throwing stones at the soldiers.
The medical sources noted that ten Palestinians were treated on the field for rubber bullet injuries.
Soldiers in plain clothes were deployed in the area to chase and nab those throwing stones and succeeded in detaining a number of them.
