Israel treibt den Siedlungsausbau im Westjordanland mit der größten Landnahme seit Jahrzehnten voran

Submission statement: Article talks about how an Israeli NGO approved the largest seizure of land in the occupied West Bank in three decades (since 1993). It’s around 12.7 square kilometers (nearly 5 square miles) of land in the Jordan Valley and the land will now be treated as Israeli property instead of private Palestinian land. The anti-settlement activists at the Israeli NGO claimed the land grab connects Israeli settlements along a key corridor bordering Jordan, and they believe this was done specifically to undermine the prospect of a contiguous Palestinian state. Article points to far right Bezalel Smotrich as the individual in government who pushed hardest for this particular settlement expansion.
