Wednesday 29-November-2017

An Israeli committee proposed the establishment of a new settlement outpost by annexing four settlement neighborhoods near Qalqilya city in the northern West Bank.

A Hebrew website reported that the proposal stipulates connecting four settlements: Oranit Alkana Shir Tikvah and Ets Ephraim and turning them into a settlement city for 22000 settlers.

The recommendation that was published on Wednesday after being submitted to Israeli interior ministry also provides for seizing the Palestinian lands located between those four settlements.
