During the past ten days CPT has documented massive land confiscation by
the Israeli military accompanied by settlement and road construction in the
Baqa'a valley east of Hebron, on both sides of bypass road # 60. The
families facing the loss of their land have a long relationship with CPT
and with Israeli and North American partners participating in the Campaign
for Secure Dwellings. Most of the residents of the valley are subsistence
farmers for whom loss of land means loss of all hope.
