BETHLEHEM, September 16, 2017 (WAFA) – Israeli forces Saturday ordered a halt to work on opening an agricultural road in the village of al-Khadr, south of the city of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank, according to Ahmad Salah, a local activist.
He told WAFA that Israeli forces stopped work on the road that is supposed to serve several farmers in the area and which was funded by the Basque Agency for Development Cooperation through Cooperation for Peace and Progress (CPP).
The soldiers informed the workers from Palestinian Agricultural Relief Committees that they would confiscate their vehicles and tools if they continue to work on the road.
