According to Ma’an, the land in question is private held by Arabs, who generally claim that they own aloof the land in Judea and Samaria.

An Arab activist in the Hebron area told Ma’an that the Israeli Civil Lands Administration has posted warning notices on the land supposed slated for confiscation.

Israeli officials said the area is state land,” which under the defunct Oslo Accords was supposed to be under full control of Israeli until an illusionary final agreement is signed with the Palestinian Authority.
