STORYLINE
Protesters clashed with Israeli soldiers on Friday during a weekly protest against Israel's West Bank barrier.
Palestinians and International activists near the village of Bilin threw stones at Israeli troops at the barrier, who fired numerous rounds of tear gas on the crowd. No injuries were reported.
Palestinians have been staging weekly demonstrations to protest the barrier's route, which crosses through the villages and cuts farmers off from hundreds of acres of agricultural fields.
Israel began building the nearly 500-mile (800-kilometre) barrier in 2002 and it is about two-thirds complete.
Israel has classified the protest areas as closed military zones and troops have clashed frequently and increasingly violently with protesters, who hurl rocks at the soldiers.
Meanwhile Palestinians also protested against the occupation of a house in East Jerusalem by Jewish settlers.
The settlers occupied the house in the predominantly Arab neighbourhood of Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood last Tuesday, sparking protests.
The incident came as Israel's government dispatched inspectors to the West Bank to enforce a 10-month settlement freeze and prevent any new construction.
The dispute over east Jerusalem, home to Jewish, Muslim and Christian holy sites, is the most intractable issue in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Israel captured the area in the 1967 Mideast war, immediately annexed it and claims all of Jerusalem as its eternal capital. But the annexation has not been internationally recognised.
About 300,000 Jewish settlers live in the West Bank, in addition to 180,000 Jewish Israelis living in east Jerusalem.
The Palestinians say the growing settler population on territories makes their dream of independence increasingly difficult to realise.
