Armed Israeli settlers started building a new settlement outpost in Al-Sawahreh, east of occupied Jerusalem, on Thursday evening. 

Residents of Al-Sawahreh said that the settlers targeted land belongs to the Abu Hussein family at the main entrance to the village.

Local sources indicated that the aim of the outpost was to link the settlements of Kedar and Boaz, which were established on the lands of Abu Dis and Al-Sawahra respectively.
