Israeli troops attacked mourners attending the funeral of a Palestinian man in the town of al-Issawiya near occupied East Jerusalem, according to a report by the Wafa news agency.
Nael Obeid, 46, was released last week as part of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas after spending 21 years in detention, the report said. He died on Saturday after falling from the roof of his house.
Israeli soldiers stormed the town and fired tear gas at the Issawiya cemetery and nearby streets during the funeral.
