Israeli occupation authorities issue four orders to seize 165 dunums of Palestinian land in West Bank
Israeli occupation authorities have issued four military orders to seize approximately 165 dunums of Palestinian land across the occupied northern West Bank, in the latest move targeting Palestinian property and restricting residents' access to their lands.
The orders target areas in Qalqilya, Nablus, Tubas and the northern Jordan Valley, according to the Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission on Tuesday.
The commission said the latest measures aim to annex additional Palestinian land and expand areas covered by previous seizure orders, further entrenching Israel's control over occupied Palestinian territory.
It linked the orders to Israeli efforts to establish buffer zones around illegal settlement outposts, expand roads serving settlements and strengthen military positions in the targeted areas.
The commission warned that the land seizures would further restrict Palestinians' access to surrounding areas, including agricultural lands that local residents depend on for their livelihoods.
It said the measures would deepen restrictions on Palestinian communities while facilitating the expansion and consolidation of illegal Israeli settlements across the occupied West Bank. (ILKHA)
