Settlers continue to grab more Palestinian lands in Ein Hilweh

Wednesday 2-September-2020

A group of Jewish settlers have continued to set up tents and structures on vast swaths of Palestinian land and deploy fences around them in the east of Ein al-Hilweh hamlet in the northern Jordan Valley.

Local activist Aref Daraghmeh said that settlers in Abul-Qandoul area to the south of Ein al-Hilweh continued to devour more lands from the village to expand an outpost they already built for themselves in the area.

Ein al-Hilweh is one of the Bedouin communities in the Wadi al-Maleh area and located 20 kilometers away from Tubas province. It is known for its warm climate and eye-catching nature.

Last year settlers from “Maskiyot” settlement took over a water spring in Ein al-Hilweh and prohibited the local residents from using it.
