Watchdog says West Bank outposts have boomed under Trump
An Israeli watchdog group says Israeli settlers have established dozens of unauthorized settlement outposts in the West Bank, most of them founded since US President Donald Trump entered office.
Peace Now says in a new report published today that Israeli settlers have founded 32 remote West Bank outposts since 2012, often with tacit government support.
The Defense Ministry and COGAT, the defense body responsible for civil affairs in the West Bank, do not respond to requests for comment.
