The Israeli occupation authorities have approved a new colonial plan to seize 35 dunums of land in the village of Kafr Qaddum, east of Qalqilya in the northern West Bank.
Muneef Nazzal, who monitors settlement activity in Qalqilya Governorate, told Palestinian news agency (WAFA) that the plan, published in Hebrew media, involves the confiscation of 35.31 dunums of land in the northern area of the village.
Nazzal said that the plan aims to construct 58 new settlement units to expand the illegal settlement of Mitzpe Yishai, which is built on the village’s land.
The year 2024 witnessed a significant increase in the pace of settlement construction and expansion, with the occupation authorities approving numerous colonial master plans to build more than 13,000 settlement units across the West Bank, including Jerusalem, by seizing approximately 11,888 dunams of Palestinian land.
