Israelis begin establishing a new settlement outpost northeast of Jerusalem.

Israeli settlers began establishing a new settlement outpost in the town of Mukhmas, northeast of occupied Jerusalem, on Monday.

The rights organization "Al-Baydar" stated in a press release that groups of Israeli settlers started building a new settlement outpost on the lands of citizens east of the town of Mukhmas this evening.

It clarified that the settlers set up facilities at the site "in a move that is part of the attempts to expand settlements that threaten agricultural lands and population centers in the area."

It pointed out that "the continuation of such actions increases tension, undermines the stability of the residents, and limits their ability to access their lands."

"Al-Baydar" called for the intervention of human rights and international bodies to monitor "this illegal expansion and to work on protecting the lands and local populations from the dangers that threaten them."

According to data from the Palestinian Authority's Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, settlers established 114 settlement outposts during the years of the genocide war on Gaza, up until October 5, 2025.

Since Israel's occupation of the West Bank in 1967, successive Israeli governments have established hundreds of settlements, housing more than 700,000 settlers.

The United Nations confirms that this settlement is "illegal" and undermines the chances of implementing the two-state solution principle (Palestinian and Israeli) as stipulated in international resolutions, calling for its cessation for decades, but to no avail.
