Israel’s occupation authorities expropriated almost 70 acres of Palestinian land in the Jordan Valley and West Bank on Tuesday, Shehab
news agency has reported. The land is owned by the Roman Catholic
Church — the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem — in the villages of
Bardala and Tayaseer near the West Bank city of Tubas and in the Jordan
Valley respectively.
Palestinians residents living on the
property fear that this expropriation is the forerunner to their
expulsion for “security reasons”, a euphemism used by Israel to
ethnically cleanse the land prior to the expansion of illegal
settlements.
The expansion of Israeli settlements
always starts with such measures. It is one way that Israel uses to
empty the land of the indigenous Palestinian population.............https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20181128-israel-expropriates-almost-70-acres-of-catholic-church-property/
