'Israel' seizes seven dunams, 739 square meters from Beit Lid, east of Tulkarm
In a related context, the Israeli occupation authorities have issued notices for the seizure of seven dunams and 739 square meters of land from the town of Beit Lid, located east of Tulkarm, in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.
Ma'an Rashid, one of the landowners, emphasized that the threat lies not only in the seizure of these seven dunams but in the broader danger posed to hundreds of dunams from neighboring villages. This move, he said, is part of a larger colonial scheme to connect the Israeli Anab and Avnei Hefetz settlements.
Rashid added that the timing of this decision is aimed at restricting farmers just as the olive harvest season begins, preventing them from accessing their lands.
He further noted that the town's lands have been subjected to ongoing attacks and violations by Israeli forces and settlers. The most recent incident occurred three weeks ago when a huge area of olive groves was set ablaze.
Rashid also highlighted that since the start of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, the Israeli occupation forces and settlers have barred farmers from accessing the targeted Abu Luqa mountain area.
