Settlers established a new settlement outpost on Thursday evening near the Bedouin community of Hathrura, in the village of Khan al-Ahmar in Khan al-Ahmar, east of Jerusalem.

According to local sources, settlers, protected by occupation forces, have set up caravans and begun building infrastructure in an attempt to seize more land and expand settlements, linking the surrounding settlements within the "E1" settlement plan, which aims to separate the northern West Bank from the southern one.

The sources added that this move comes as part of the occupation's ongoing attempts to evacuate Bedouin communities, stressing that such measures constitute a clear violation of international law, especially given the ongoing threats to Khan al-Ahmar's residents for years.
