BETHLEHEM, July 31, 2012 (WAFA) – Israeli bulldozers Tuesday razed land in Taqou’, a town east of Bethlehem, in suspect preparations for opening a new road connecting two nearby settlements, according to Taqqou’ mayor Tayseer Abu Mfrah.
He told WAFA that Israeli bulldozers razed land in areas in Taqqou’ adjacent to Roman settlement, adding that the razing most likely aims to take over the land and steal it, in order to open a road linking Taqou’ and Roman settlements.
Abu Mfrah stressed that the Palestinian landowners have documents and deeds proving their ownership of the razed land.
