A Palestinian citizen on Saturday won a court decision to remove four mobile houses set up by Israeli settlers on his land in al-Khader town to the south of Bethlehem Palestinian sources reported.
Representative of the Wall and Settlement Resistance Committee Hasan Breijia told Quds Press that a group of Jewish settlers a few months ago placed the caravans by force on a land owned by the Palestinian citizen Ibrahim Sbeih in preparation for the establishment of a new settlement outpost in the area.
Breijia said that Sbeih who had filed a complaint at an Israeli court refusing to give up his land won a court order to remove the caravans and their infrastructure.
The Palestinian activist affirmed that the court decision does not reflect any decline in Israel’s policy of land confiscation but it seems that the settlers did not coordinate this time with the Israeli authorities in their plan to seize the land.
He noted that the Israeli settlers have recently stepped up their attack on Palestinian lands in al-Khader village urging the Palestinian citizens to take all necessary legal arrangements to protect their lands.
