The Israeli occupation authorities issued a military order to remove forested areas covering 59 dunams of land in the town of Zbuba in Jenin Governorate.
The Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission stated that the military order numbered N.K/55/25 targets a large forested area for removal and destruction under the pretext of military necessity, in a blatant assault on Palestinian agricultural land.
The Commission pointed out that the occupying state has intensified the issuance of this type of orders in all Palestinian territories in recent months, justifying it with security claims and the protection of roads used by settlers.
It added that the occupying state's persistence in issuing orders to attack Palestinian trees and crops proves its ongoing involvement in apartheid and racial segregation measures by tightening restrictions on Palestinians, under the pretext of protecting settlers, while depriving Palestinian citizens, the rightful landowners, of their most basic rights, as the occupying state allocates all resources in favor of the colonial settlers.
The measures of the occupation prove its ongoing involvement in apartheid and racial segregation.
