Gaza: Israeli colonists continued on Thursday the construction of a colonial road that threatens the seizure of approximately 500 dunums of land from the village of Deir Abu Mash'al, northwest of Ramallah, according to the village council.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, sources at the village council reported that colonists have been working for the fourth consecutive day to construct a new road in the northern part of the village. The construction activity has raised alarms among the local community due to its potential impact on the region.
The sources warned of the serious implications of these activities in an area where seven village residents have been killed in recent years. The construction of the road is seen as a significant threat to the villagers, who have already experienced substantial disruptions and losses.
Last month, Israeli occupation authorities seized an additional 45 dunums of land through four military seizure orders. The orders included the establishment of a buffer zone around the Alei Zahav colonial settlement in Deir Ballut, the construction of colonial roads in Deir Istiya, both located in Salfit, and the setting up of a military outpost in Tamun, Tubas.
