Israeli army arrests 13 Palestinians in the West Bank and al-Quds, and issues new verdict for land grab.

The Israeli military is palnning to confiscate a big tract of Palestinian-owned land in the southern West Bank to make room for the expansion of nearby illegal settlements.

The Palestinian PM says Israel is withholding the bodies of Palestinians killed by the regime's forces to use them in laboratories of medical schools.

In a second letter in a week, fifteen members of the US Congress urge the Secretary of State to take immediate action to stop the Israeli regime's "war crime", appropriation of Palestinian land and forcibly expelling its more than 1,000 residents from their homes in the occupied West Bank territory.

Israeli officials order the confiscation of thousands of acres of Palestinian-owned land in the eastern part of the West Bank.

Israeli officials have approved plans for the construction of a new settlement near the border with the besieged Gaza Strip.

Israeli officials approved plans for the construction of about 12,000 new settler units in the occupied al-Quds last year, razed 177 Palestinian-owned buildings and ordered demolition of another 200 homes.
