West Bank 4% for training
Salah al-Khawaja, assistant head of the Commission Against the Wall and Settlements, said that around 4% of the West Bank’s land is used as Israeli military training grounds. He noted that the occupation authorities had approved the establishment of shooting ranges at 31 settlement sites, particularly east of Tubas. He added that the training exercises and related restrictions obstruct farmers’ access to their land and grazing areas and spread fear among residents. He said they contribute to settlement expansion and forced displacement, and called for stepped-up legal and diplomatic efforts and for the settlement issue to be brought before the International Criminal Court.
