Photos 1-4: Settlers running car tires in Sinjil

Motaz Tawabsheh, Sinjil’s mayor told LRC reporter:

“ in the recent years, fanatic settlers attacked several homes in the town, in 2014 “Price tag” gangsters torched a house and caused  5 burning casualties ,1 of them is a child.

It should be mentioned that the occupation army has been closing the eastern entrance of Sinjil by roadblocks and dirt walls since the outbreak of the second intifada in 2000. Noteworthy, the closed way is the main route which links the village with the bypass road no. 60.”

Field observation shows that settlers’ gang “price tag” raided several areas in Palestinian suburbs, ruined car tires and wrote hatred inciting slogans , like what happened in Ein Yabrud, Ramon, Al-Mughir and Deir Dibwan in Ramallah, Fara’ata and Jeet in Qalqilya, Tell, Assira Al-Qibliya, Burin, As-Sawiya and Qasra in Nablus.

About Sinjil:[1]

 20 kilometer north of Ramallah, Sinjil is surrounded by Al Labn Ash Sharqia  (north), Jaljilia (west), Qaryut and Turmus’ayya (east), and Al Mazr’a Ash sharqia (south).

Sinjil has a total population of 5236 people according to statistics conducted in 2007. It has a total area of 14028, 888 of which are a built-up area of the village. 

The Israeli occupation devoured 551 dunums of the lands of the village for two colonies. The first one is Maale Levona which was built in 1983 and confiscated 298 dunums of the village. It is inhabited by 497 colonists. The second is Eli which was built in 1984 and devoured 253 dunums. It is inhabited by 2058 colonists.

Moreover, bypass number ’60 took over 246 dunums of the village lands.

According to Oslo Accords, 14% of Sinjil is under Area A (PA has full civil and security control) while 30% is under Area B (PA is in charge of civil matters with Israel responsible for security). However,  most of the village lands (56%) is under Area C (Israel maintains full security and administrative control). Here are the area in dunums:

  • Area A (1980) dunums
  • Area B (4140) dunums
