Israel has announced plans to expropriate 4 sq km of Palestinian land in the occupied West Bank.

以色列宣布计划征用已占领的约旦河西岸4平方公里属于巴勒斯坦的土地。
 
The decision to appropriate land south of Bethlehem is believed to be the largest seizure1 by Israel in 30 years. 
 
The military-run local administration said it was a response to the kidnapping and killing2 of three Jewish teenagers in the area in June. 
 
Palestinians said diplomatic action should be taken against Israel. The US urged Israel to reverse the move.
 
'Counterproductive' move
 
The decision was announced on Sunday by the Israeli army department charged with administering civil affairs in the West Bank.
 
The takeover of the land in the area of Gush3 Etzion clears the way for expansion of a settlement named Gevaot.
 
Local Israeli settlements said they hoped to build on the land, which Palestinian officials said included many olive groves4
 
Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said the world community should hold Israel accountable for "the ongoing5 Israeli settlement activity in the West Bank and East Jerusalem", according to the AFP news agency.
 
Meanwhile, a US state department official was quoted by Reuters as describing the Israeli move as "counterproductive to Israel's stated goal of a negotiated two-state solution with the Palestinians".
 
The Palestinians want their state to include all land captured by Israel in 1967, but some 500,000 Jews now live in more than 200 settlements and outposts in the West Bank - including East Jerusalem. 
 
The settlements are considered illegal under international law, though Israel disputes this.
