Israeli troops confiscate vast lands in Hebron

Israeli soldiers invaded Thursday morning the Deerat village, east of Yatta in the southern West Bank city of Hebron, and illegally confiscated seven Dunams (1,000 square meter) of Palestinian lands in order to pave a road for Jewish settlers. Coordinator of the Popular Committee against the Wall and Settlements in Hebron Rateb Jabour stated that the army carried maps showing the new planned settler-only road that would split the village and lead to the destruction of several houses. The road would lead to Israel's illegal annexation of thousands of Dunams of Palestinian lands in the region. Also on Thursday, Israeli troops kidnapped Mohannad Al-Mohtaseb, 17 years old, from the Old City of Hebron.  'Free Egyptians' starts new training on electoral campaigns  CAIRO, Nov 21 (MENA) - "Free Egyptians" Party has inaugurated the second phase of training courses on electoral campaign management for the party members.
