Israeli settlers set up new outpost on Palestinian land near Ramallah

Israeli settlers have set up a new outpost northwest of Ramallah, in a further escalation of land grabs across the occupied West Bank.

According to Palestinian media, settlers arrived at dawn and placed mobile homes on land belonging to the village of Umm Safa, in the Jabal al-Ras area.

The move is part of a growing trend where settlers establish outposts without official authorisation, often with tacit support from Israeli forces. Rights groups warn these encroachments fuel violence and displacement of Palestinian communities
