7th of June, 2024: The Head of CWRC, Minister Moayad Shaaban, revealed that the occupying state had seized a total of 385 dunams of citizens’ lands under the name of expropriation orders.
Shaaban said that the order aims to create a major expansion of Route 60 to facilitate the movement of colonists, which is the section that begins at Jabal Johar, south of the city of Hebron.
This is the point where work began in 1990 in accordance with a previous expropriation order. Then the section designated for expansion extends from Khirbet Adissa, east of the city of Hebron, adjacent to the Kiryat Arba colony, all the way to the lands of Halhul at the section that was expropriated by the occupying state in 1995.
Said that the occupying state is bending the laws regulating and developing infrastructure in effect before the occupation for the benefit of the colonialist settlers, in grave violation of international laws that criminalize all forms of apartheid and confiscation of land for the benefit of the colonizers in stealing the Palestinian land and presents it as infrastructure to empower the colonizers.
Stated that what appears from the outside as a development of infrastructure and roads, according to the occupation’s claim, is nothing more than an occupational means to divide the Palestinian geography, stifle the Palestinian presence, and prevent communication between villages and towns in all places of the Palestinian presence.
