Occupied Jerusalem: Curfew in the West Bank town of Ni'lin was extended again on Monday, an Israeli military official said.
Residents will be forced to stay inside throughout the day for the fourth straight day.
The curfew was imposed in response to violent demonstrations since Friday in protest against Israel's construction of a barrier that would isolate the village.
A resident said troops fired tear gas and stun grenades on Monday, while a military spokesman denied that any shooting took place.
Up to 50 people were hurt by tear gas and rubber bullets fired during protests on Sunday, in which an Israeli soldier also was wounded.
