العربية تزرع 2,000 شجرة مثمرة جديدة في قرية جبع - القدس

Northwest of Jerusalem and in the village of Jaba’, 86 dunums of land owned by 38 families were cultivated with 2000 saplings of olives, grape and almond trees by APN and Al-Nahda.It is worth noting that a major part of the village amounting to 95% of its area (estimated at 12,883 dunums) is classified by Israel as area C where construction or use of land is prohibited unless a permit is obtained.

The village previously suffered a major loss of land, when 1,700 dunums were seized by the Israeli occupation army to build two Israeli settlements on the land.
