Israeli forces are cracking down on Palestinian demonstrators in the Occupied Territories marking the annual Land Day, which commemorates the 1976 deaths of six Palestinians protesting the confiscation of their property. Israeli troops have fired rubber bullets and tear gas at demonstrators as well as sealed off the entire West Bank. The Land Day protests turned deadly last year when Israel killed demonstrators on its border with Lebanon and Syria.
