Nilin: Israeli security forces clashed with demonstrators at the West Bank on Friday, injuring eight people, medics said.
More than 200 people gathered near Nilin to protest the building of a barrier in the area.
A military spokesman said Israeli forces used anti-riot measures after demonstrators hurled rocks at soldiers, who fired rubber-coated bullets and teargas at demonstrators.
Israel says the projected 723-kilometre barrier is needed for security, while Palestinians view it as a land grab that undermines their future state.
