Israel issued a confiscation order for 94.79 dunams of Palestinian land northwest of Ramallah, according to Ma'an news agency. The seizure order was announced without further detail on the intended use of the territory or affected communities in the area.

The confiscation adds to ongoing Israeli land appropriation in the occupied West Bank, where military orders regularize the takeover of Palestinian property for settlement expansion and other state purposes.
