Teargas. Most of the gas was not shot towards the people who were throwing rocks, but towards Abed. who can be seen in the white cap.

More teargas. No one in the area where it has been shot into (the olive grove to the right side of the road) is throwing rocks.

Abed and Yoram managed to walk over to the Israeli Army soldiers, a good distance from the clashes. Abed began speaking to them from a megaphone.

Utterly confused, the soldiers listen as he asks them what they are doing in his village, and as he tells them to go home (1).

One of them finally made a call on his field phone to ask for help. By that time, Abed walked away.

A Palestinian house in the village. Notice the crates covering the windows. Many homes now have these, after high velocity teargas canisters have been shot into the homes.
