RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- The Israeli information center for human rights in the occupied territories, B'Tselem, said in a report on Wednesday that the Israeli settlements discharge their sewage water into West Bank valleys and villages.
The report said that the settlements produce around 17.5 million cubic meters of sewage water per annum, adding that they represent the refuse of 80 settlements out of a total of 112 in the West Bank.
Meanwhile, settlers south of Nablus started expanding their settlement at the expense of Bruin village lands under the very eyes of the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) that did nothing to stop them despite the Israeli government's decision to halt construction in settlements for ten months.
Local sources in Al-Khalil said that IOF troops on Thursday detained a Palestinian youth in Edhna village after storming his home.
The IOF soldiers late on Wednesday rounded up two Palestinian boys (16 and 17 years old) in Jenin's Rummane village for walking near the separation wall.
