New Israeli police station built on Palestinian land in Salfit

Saturday 20-January-2018

The Israeli occupation authorities have finalized the construction of a police station in Ariel settlement outpost north of Salfit province.

Speaking with the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) eye-witnesses said the new multi-story building is the largest in the area.

Researcher Khaled Maali said the construction of a police station in Ariel settlement contravenes international law and the Fourth Geneva Convention.

Dr. Maali warned that Israel’s settlement expansion in Ariel outpost has come at the expense of Palestinians’ cultivated lands in Salfit’s Eskaka Merda Keiri and Kafl Haris towns.

He added that such moves bear witness to Israel’s intents to tighten grip across the West Bank and hold sway over more Palestinian lands.
