Israeli forces on Friday detained four teenagers from Silwad village north of Ramallah after clashes broke out in the village.

Majd Saleh Hamid, 16, Mohammad Ziyad Hamid, 12, Abdullah Khalid Hammad, 17, and a fourth unidentified teen were detained, locals said.

Hundreds of people held a demonstration earlier on Friday during which they threw rocks at Israeli army vehicles and settlers cars.

Israeli forces raided the village and fired rubber-coated steel bullets and tear gas canisters in response. No injuries were reported.

The internationally recognized Palestinian territories of which the West Bank and East Jerusalem form a part have been occupied by the Israeli military since 1967.
