TOP News Brief
Settlers began fencing land east of Qaryut village south of Nablus on Thursday, Shehab Wire reported. The fencing operation prepares the territory for conversion into a new settlement outpost following the displacement of Palestinian landowners.
A group of settlers had seized the same land in mid-last month, according to the report. The expansion represents a continuation of settler efforts to expand control over Palestinian agricultural land in the area.
