JORDAN VALLEY, Israeli settlers today installed water pipes in land belonging to Palestinians in the Ein al-Sakout area in the northern Jordan Valley, according to a local official.
Mutaz Bsharat, an official in charge of monitoring Israeli colonial activities in the Jordan Valley, said settlers installed and connected waste pipes on land that belong to Palestinian residents in the village of Ein al-Sakout, despite recovering his property years ago in Israeli courts.
Israel attempts to reduce Palestinian activity and presence in the Jordan Valley, which makes almost a third of the area of the occupied West Bank and considered the breadbasket of Palestine after it decided to annex it, a step that has provoked worldwide condemnation.
