Land seizures for military roads intensify
Palestinian territories have witnessed an unprecedented increase in the issuance of confiscation orders by the Israeli occupation army. In just one week, seven new orders were issued affecting nearly 89,514 dunams of land, aimed at constructing new military roads or completing the buffer zones around settlements and colonial outposts in the Ramallah, Jerusalem, and Nablus governorates. The occupation authorities use these orders as a permanent tool to develop the infrastructure of the colonial project, linking newly established roads to settlements and colonial outposts, providing movement corridors for settlers, and expanding security influence. This imposes ongoing restrictions on Palestinians' access to their lands and creates new buffer zones around settlements. This escalation comes amid a significant increase in the issuance of confiscation orders during 2026, with 40 orders documented affecting 611 dunams, including the establishment of military sites and numerous security roads. These actions deepen the creeping annexation and enhance the geographical control of settlers over Palestinian land.
