The Israeli occupation army on Monday seized a vast tract of agricultural land in Jab’a village southwest of Bethlehem in the West Bank and embarked on bulldozing it.
According to local sources Israeli bulldozers started to raze plots of land belonging to Palestinian citizens from the family of Masha’lah in the village.
The annexed land is located near the fence that separates the village from the 1948 occupied lands.
The Israeli army recently notified villagers of its intent to take over dozens of dunums of land belonging to them saying it would establish a training camp for its forces in the area.
