Israeli settlers today set up a new outpost in the village of Birin, south of the southern occupied West Bank city of Hebron, which is usually a prelude to building a new illegal settlement, local sources said.
Rateb Jabour, from the Wall and Settlements Resistance Committee, said that settlers set up a caravan on lands belonging to a local resident with the intention to seize hundreds of dunums of lands in that area despite being owned by Palestinians who have legal deeds proving ownership of the land.
