Al-Hashous Solidarity Over Land Confiscation
The article addressed the issue of land expropriation in the Jordan Valley. Farmer Nabila Al-Hashoush, along with other officials and farmers, refuse to relinquish the agricultural lands that represent a family heritage and a main source of income, despite the implementation of development projects such as the railway project. Al-Hashoush emphasizes that the farmers' objection is not against the project itself, but rather against the targeting of their private lands inherited from their ancestors. She points out that the core of the issue concerns the preservation of ownership and livelihood, not just financial compensation. An extensive social media engagement highlighted the need to strike a balance between development and farmers’ rights. It was also noted that the legal procedures for compensation were carried out in accordance with the law, despite calls from some parties to review the land situations and the reasons behind continuing expropriation after the project's route was modified.
