Israel to use “Regulation Law” to legalize seven facilities

Wednesday 15-February-2017

The Israeli authorities declared intention to use the recently adopted “Regulation law” to legalize seven facilities built in Adi Ad illegal outpost including roads constructed on private Palestinian lands in the West Bank Haaretz Hebrew newspaper revealed.

According to the paper the Israeli government reportedly informed Israel’s Supreme Court that they are considering using the controversial law to confiscate Palestinian land in the occupied West Bank.

The move came after Palestinians had petitioned the Supreme Court to demand the evacuation of Adi Ad.

The Israeli prosecutor has responded by saying that six structures in the outpost’s area were built on land that was not Israeli-declared state lands including a “number of roads” and “paths within the outposts.”

The prosecutor wrote that “given the legislation of the Regulation Bill for Judea and Samaria [the Israeli term for the West Bank] the state needs to examine this law’s ramifications regarding the structures in question.”
