The bullet can only be heard by a low sweeping noise in the air as it passes. The low caliber allows the bullet to easily enter the body and cause internal bleeding. The bullet can enter a body from approximately 50 meters. Until now, 7 people have been shot with the &#8220;0.22\u2033 in Bi\u2019lin, Ni\u2019lin, and Budrus.

Although the composition of this bullet is not yet known, several protesters have complained of skin irritations.<br \/>\nThe Israeli army has began to use a more dangerous teargas canister. Thus far, use of this canister has been restricted to the villages of Ni\u2019lin and Jayyous. The canister is black, heavy and can reach more than 400 meters. The gas-canister explodes only after it hits the ground. No tail of gas or audible cue makes this canister more likely to cause injuries, as demonstrators cannot anticipate when it is being used. This canister ignites more easily and has set fire to a living room. Additionally, the acceleration and weight of this canister cause a greater impact when hitting a demonstrator: a broken leg resulted from the use of this canister against demonstrators.<br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1099\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.psyched.be\/wordpress\/journalism\/israel-vs-hamas-new-weapons-used-against-demonstrators\/attachment\/teargas-300x182\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.psyched.be\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/teargas-300x182.jpg?fit=300%2C182\" data-orig-size=\"300,182\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"teargas-300&amp;#215;182\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.psyched.be\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/teargas-300x182.jpg?fit=300%2C182\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.psyched.be\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/teargas-300x182.jpg?resize=300%2C182\" alt=\"teargas-300x182\" title=\"teargas-300x182\" width=\"300\" height=\"182\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-1099\" \/>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"editNote\">\n&lt;&lt;Editors notE&gt;&gt;<br \/>\nI am far from surprised here.
