The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) bulldozed on Sunday morning swaths of Palestinian-owned land in Sinjil town, northeast of Ramallah.

According to local sources, the IOF will use these swaths of land to build a separation wall encircling Sinjil town and separating it from a road used by Jewish settlers.

The Israeli occupation authority had already delivered to the Sinjil municipality a military notice declaring its intent to seize 15 dunums of land as a prelude to building a wall stretching hundreds of meters along the settler road.

After building this wall, the Sinjil villagers would have to use alternative routes to reach the main road.

During the first half of the current year, the Israeli army seized, under military orders, about 27,000 dunums of West Bank land, according to the Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission.
