Scores of Palestinians
demonstrated afternoon Friday in a protest against an Israeli order of seizing
20 dunams of Palestinians land in Deir
Alhatab and Azmout villages in the south of Nablus.
This order comes for the settlers purposes to open a bypass road for illegal
settlement Alon Morey which also will prevent Palestinians land
owners to access to their lands that exist behind the road.
Locals said that Israel attacked protesters
and injured 5, one of them a journalist using sound bombs and rubber bullets.
Ghassan
Daghlas, an official who monitors settlement activity in the northern West Bank,
told Palestine TV that Alon Morey settlement was one of the isolated settlement
according to the classification of Netanyahu but giving the American green
light from president Trump encouraged every
settlement to expand on the context of Palestinians land. “
He
added that Palestinians who want to go to their lands behind the road, need to
have permits to access through this road which Israel declared it as a closed military
zone.”
The bypass road is one of the Israeli open policies that put into practice after Oslo agreement
between Israelis and Palestinians in 1993 for the sake of building roads to military and
settlers use.
It is noteworthy that building bypass roads completely depend on
verbal orders are given to soldiers and not stated in legislation or official papers.
According to a report published
by B’Tselem said that these bypass roads are discriminatory and
violate two fundamental human rights: the right to equality and the right to
freedom of movement besides humiliating Palestinians on checkpoints and many restrictions
that confiscate Palestinians daily life.
However, Israel intensifies working to increase constructing bypass
roads inside the occupied Palestinian territories to connect the Israeli
settlements with each other and segregate the Palestinian communities and towns
as a part of its policy to seize control over the Palestinian land and impose
facts on the ground.
