Extremist Israeli settlers have been raking through Palestinian lands in Nablus and Ramallah paving the way for more attacks against Palestinians and their property an activist has warned.
Ghassan Dughlas who monitors settlement activity in the northern occupied West Bank said settler gangs have showed up on Palestinian land located between Yitzhar outpost south of Nablus and Shilo north of Ramallah.
The activist said over recent months Israeli settlers stepped up assaults against Palestinian farmers and agricultural facilities in the occupied West Bank in the presence of the Israeli army.
Dughlas also warned of increasing attacks by Israeli settlers against Palestinians driving on bypass roads leading to Israeli settlements namely Yitzhar.
Recently Israeli settlers set up five mobile homes near Shilo settlement paving the way for illegal settlement expansion on Palestinian land in the area the activist added.
