Today, Sunday, Israeli occupation vehicles bulldozed large areas of citizens’ lands in the area surrounding Ezbet Abu Basal, northwest of the city of Salfit.

Settlement affairs researcher Khaled Maali said that the occupation bulldozers continue to bulldoze dozens of dunams in the area surrounding Ezbet Abu Basal for the benefit of expanding the settlements and their infrastructure at the expense of citizens’ agricultural and pastoral lands.

His Excellency explained that this area is surrounded by the “Ariel” and “Ariel” industrial settlements, and the Ras settlement outpost, and the goal of the bulldozing work is to expand them and connect them together, stressing that what is happening in Salfit Governorate is an unprecedented process of settlement encroachment.
