Local sources reported that Israeli military forces confiscated over 50 dunums of farmland in the Hebron for the purpose of constructing a Jewish-only road to an Israeli settlement constructed illegally near the Palestinian town.
The land is located in the village of Yatta, south of Hebron, an area that has been subject to a number of Israeli military invasions in recent months.
On Monday morning, dozens of Israeli military vehicles invaded the village and laid claim to fifty dunums of farmland, according to local residents. Two international peace activists who were staying in the village went out to the land to confront the soldiers about the illegal confiscation of land, and were detained for several hours by the troops.
The confiscation in Yatta comes in the midst of a series of land confiscations and home demolitions by the Israeli military, in the context of expanding Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
The Israeli government recently approved a plan to expand Israeli settlements in the West Bank by 15,000 units. Approval for another 58,000 units is currently pending.
