Description
RAMALLAH, April 22, 2012 (WAFA) – Israeli soldiers accompanied with bulldozers Sunday razed agricultural land in the village of Qalandia, northwest of Jerusalem, said witnesses.

They said that Israeli authorities declared intentions to take over 400 dunums to build and expand the Separation Wall to separate the area from Ramallah and Jerusalem and build Talmudic gardens that serve Israeli settlements' plans.

Local sources pointed out that Israeli authorities took over 4000 dunums, leaving only 1000 dunums of the villages’ land, in an attempt to completely isolate the village from Jerusalem.
