Two Palestinians have reportedly been injured during clashes with Israeli soldiers in the West Bank town of Hebron on Sunday.
Palestinians threw stones at Israeli troops despite reports that Israel could agree to a U-S proposed pullback in the West Bank.
The head of Palestinian General Intelligence organisation said unless the Israelis honoured the agreements they have signed, there would be no hope of controlling the violence.
Palestinians and Israeli soldiers confronted each other in Hebron again on Sunday.
For the fourth day running, Palestinian youths threw stones and bottles at Israeli soldiers who responded with rubber-coated metal bullets.
Two Palestinians were reported wounded during the clashes, which have raged against the backdrop of a stalled Middle East peace process.
The violence comes amid reports in the Israeli media that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could accept a modified U-S proposal for troop withdrawals if it was divided into two separate pullbacks.
That would mean an initial withdrawal from 9 percent of the West Bank followed a year later by a further 2 percent.
But Palestinians have already said they wouldn't accept such an offer.
They point to earlier U-S promises not to water down their original position.
In the earlier proposal, the U-S wanted Israel to withdraw from 13 point 1 percent of the Palestinian land it currently occupies.
The latest violence started on Thursday when Palestinians marked the 50th anniversary of the "nakba" - or catastrophe - when they were expelled from their homes when Israel was founded.
On Thursday, at least six Palestinians were killed and scores injured in clashes with Israeli forces.
The head of the Palestinian General Intelligence in the West Bank said on Sunday that the Palestinian police were trying everything to ease the tensions. But much of the blame for the confrontations remained with the Israelis.

"If the policy of the Israeli government remains with such stubbornness and the economic situation remains desperate and there is no implementation of the agreements there will be more violence."
