A horde of armed Jewish settlers on Monday appropriated and bulldozed a Palestinian-owned tract of agricultural land in Beit Jala town, west of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank.
Local official Hasan Berijiya said that bulldozers escorted by a group of settlers carrying weapons stormed the agricultural area of al-Makhrour in the town and embarked on razing four dunums of land belonging to a local resident called Saba Iskandar.
Berijiya added that the settlers wanted to place mobile homes on this piece of land.
He noted that the seized land is located near the Palestinian restaurant and the house that had been demolished about a week ago by the Israeli occupation authority.
