RAMALLAH, July 7, 2025 (WAFA) – The Israeli occupation authorities announced on Monday the seizure of 744 dunams of Palestinian land in the villages of Al-Mughayir and Jaba'it, northeast of Ramallah, under the pretext of declaring them as "state land," according to the Palestinian Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission.
The commission stated that the newly seized area includes the location of the Malakhi HaShalom outpost, an illegal colonial outpost established in 2015 on lands belonging to Al-Mughayir village.
According to the commission, the land grab is part of an effort to “legalize” and expand existing outposts, specifically Malakhi HaShalom, which the far-right Israeli government announced plans to legalize two years ago as part of broader colony expansion in the area.
With this latest announcement, the total area seized under the so-called “state land” since the formation of the far-right Israeli government in early 2023 now stands at 25,824 dunams, spread across 12 separate land confiscation orders, the commission reported.
