The Israeli occupation army started on Sunday to build a road for Jewish settlers on a tract of land they had seized from the village of Jab’a in the northeast of Bethlehem, south of the West Bank.

Chief of the village council Diyab Masha’ila said that Israeli bulldozers started in the morning to level swaths of land on the western side of Jab’a to build a road stretching to the villages of Wadi Fukin and Husan.

Masha’ila warned that this Israeli step would devour hundreds of dunums of agricultural land and deprive Palestinian farmers of reaching their lands, which are located to the west of the settler road which the Israeli army intends to build.
