In the face of international criticism, Israel’s far right finance minister recently announced plans to make 800 hectares of land in the occupied West Bank “Israeli state land” – the biggest land confiscation since the Oslo accords of 1993, according to the Israeli settlements watchdog Peace Now. Local Palestinians fear this could lead to some villages being destroyed and roads becoming inaccessible to them, effectively splitting the West Bank in two, and further endangering any prospects for a workable two-state solution. This report on the ground from FRANCE 24’s Catherine Norris Trent and Claire Duhamel.
