A group of Jewish settlers, protected by Israeli occupation forces, stormed Joseph's tomb in the occupied Palestinian city of Nablus at dawn Monday.
The settlers arrived to the area in dozens of buses since the early morning hours and started performing Talmudic rituals in provocation to the local residents.
Meanwhile, Israeli occupation forces intensively deployed throughout the neighboring streets to secure the settlers' break-in.
Clashes broke out in the area during which Israeli occupation forces fired rubber bullets and tear gas bombs at local youths who were protesting against the settlers’ break-in. No injuries were reported.
