Around five hundred Palestinians formed up outside of Deir Jareer, Friday morning.
Led by youths throwing stones they marched on a nearby Jewish settlement.
They were met by Israeli troops there to protect the settlers from the oncoming group.
When the marchers refused to stop, Israeli soldiers fired tear gas into their ranks, but that only slowed them.
Several volleys of tear gas did not stop the march, but a volley of rubber bullets did, and the marchers retreated to their village.
Israeli medics then went out and treated those who had been over come by the gas or struck by the rubber bullets.
