Israeli forces to surround Beit El settlement in West Bank with wall

RAMALLAH - 21 Aug 2017: Israel decided on Monday to surround Beit El settlement in northern Ramallah with a wall to separate it from El Galzoun camp and other Palestinian districts.

The move comes upon an order by Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman to prevent shooting attacks on settlers.

The ministry allocated 5.5 million shekels to carry out the wall.
