Israeli forces confiscate Palestinian land south of Nablus

NABLUS (Ma'an)


-- Israeli forces on Monday confiscated land from Burin village south of Nablus, a local official said.

Majd Assouss, the head of a committee in the village, told Ma'an that Israeli forces had officially announced that 2,000 dunams (495 acres) belonging to the local high school would be confiscated for "security reasons," without providing further details.

An Israeli army spokeswoman did not immediately return calls seeking comment.
