Salfit municipality head Abdul Kareem Fatash told LRC:

Since 2002 , there is an Israeli scheme to annex lands behind the Annexation and Expansion wall in Salfit area , and in fall 2019 we were shocked of massive machineries leveling vast areas of postures isolated in Wad Abdulrahman area that belong to Bani Nimrah, Madi, Shaheen , and Murabta families, few months later the scheme became more clear as establishing a residential area and infrastructure on vast areas of lands , this project imposes a threat on 1900 dunums isolated behind the annexation and expansion wall.

Ariel colony is one of the largest illegal Israeli colonies in the West Bank, it devours thousands of dunums from the Palestinian villages of Haris , Kafl Haris, Salfit , Iskaka.
