Jenin - Saba:
On Thursday, the Zionist occupation forces issued notifications to seize lands in the town of Ya'bad, southwest of Jenin.
The Yabad municipality reported to the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA) that the enemy plans to confiscate around 2,000 dunams of the town's lands for military and colonial purposes, according to a structural plan they published.
In 2022, the occupation seized approximately 87 dunams to expand the "Tal Menashe" settlement, built on stolen Palestinian lands near the town.
Ya'bad is surrounded by eight illegal settlements and three colonial outposts.
In a related development, the occupation forces also notified the seizure of lands in the village of Raba, east of Jenin, on Thursday.
The Raba Village Council stated that the enemy intends to confiscate lands in the southern and southeastern parts of the village under the pretext of constructing a military road and an army camp in the area known as Jabal Al-Masalama.
Raba spans around 27,000 dunams and is house to nearly 5,000 residents. In 2003, the Israeli occupation built its apartheid expansion wall on the village's lands.
