Nine-month-old Arab girl among injured as Israeli troops break up demonstrators

Context added by this archive
An infant identified by her age to the month, which is the paper insisting she be counted. The verb given to the troops is break up, the kind of verb used for furniture and crowds, and the thing broken up is demonstrators. So the sentence contains a nine-month-old who was injured and no act of injuring.
