The Israeli Occupation is bulldozing 4000 dunams of agricultural lands–consisting mainly of olive groves, in preparation for the establishment of a new settlement outpost in the village of al-Lubban al-Sharqiya, south of Nablus,” according to local sources.
This news comes following the establishment of a third settlement outpost in the vicinity within only one month.
Just this Sunday, June 19th, a group of settlers reconstructed a new outpost on the lands of al-Lubban al-Sharqiya village, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank, for the third time within a month.
Local sources reported that dozens of settlers began pitching timber over which they raised the flag of the occupying state in the area of “Ma’ale Livonne” settlement, which has been built on the lands of the towns of Al-Lubban Al-Sharqiya and Singel, north of Ramallah.
The new outpost, which the settlers insisted on establishing, is located in a vital and important area called “Al-Geneina”, through which the old Nablus-Ramallah Street, known as “The Laban Turns,” passes.
The village of al-Lubban al-Sharqiya is located 22 km south of the city of Nablus on the Nablus-Jerusalem road. Its total area of land is 12,500 dunams. It’s famous for its olive groves. Grains, legumes, and a few vegetables are grown in it, and fig and grape trees are planted there too
This village is distinguished by its beauty, and there were zigzags on the Nablus-Jerusalem road at the Laban. Al- Maarrajat road is a 150-year-old vital route that connects Nablus to Ramallah
