Israel to seize large tracts of occupied Palestinian land in Northern part of West Bank for its illegal settlement expansion

Israeli occupation authorities notified Palestinian landowners of a plan to seize large tracts of their land, south of the northern West Bank city of Nablus, according to a local activist.

Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors colonial settlement activities North of the West Bank, said Israeli forces handed notices to seize hundreds of dunums of land belonging to the villagers of Burin, Madama, and Asira al-Qibliya, south of Nablus, in order to expand the colonial settlement of Yitzhar and construct a new bypass road.

He added that the Israeli occupation authorities are dealing with Yitzhar, notorious for its hardcore religious community, as a town, and, as such, are reclassifying land surrounding it from agricultural to built-up area in order to expand the settlement.

Within the framework of its Judaizing and aggressive plans to displace Palestinians, the occupation authorities are escalating their settlement plans and seizing Palestinian lands in the West Bank, ignoring international resolutions that affirm the illegality of settlement in the occupied Palestinian territories and demand that it be stopped.
