Appeal against outpost law includes 17 Palestinian towns
The municipal governments of 17 Palestinian towns and villages join the appeal to the High Court of Justice against Israel’s Regulation Law passed Monday.
The law requires the retroactive seizure of private Palestinian land on which some 4,000 Israeli settlement homes were built illegally.
An appeal to overturn the law as unconstitutional is filed Wednesday by two legal aid organizations, Adalah and the Jerusalem Legal Aid and Human Rights Center.
