Palestinians, Israelis and internationals took action against the building of the Wall in Beit Jala.
300 dunums owned by 35 families are subject to confiscation, for the purpose of buidling the Wall. In two days, the Israelis bulldozed lands, destroying around 70 Olive trees. Activists and the population of Beit Jala mobilized to stop the work.
Beit Jala has already lost three quarters of its lands because of the building of the road 60 and the Gilo settlement.
