Israeli forces raid town, bulldoze Palestinian land west of Ramallah

Israeli forces tore up the landscape for the construction of a road in Deir Ammar town, west of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank on Monday, according to Wafa news. Local sources told Wafa that troops escorted bulldozers to the al-Wajh al-Gharbi and al-Misha areas of the town and began levelling Palestinian lands for the construction of a new road, raising concerns that the move is linked to the expansion of nearby outposts. Israeli settlers broke into a house under construction in the al-Wajh al-Gharbi area and raised the Israeli flag at the site, Wafa added. Meanwhile, Israeli forces raided Shuqba in the west of Ramallah, and settlers attacked the outskirts of al-Mazra'a al-Sharqiya town, northeast of Ramallah, Wafa news reported.
