Qasra and Settlement Expansion

The Palestinian town of Qusra, located southeast of Nablus, is considered one of the most strategically important areas in the West Bank due to its elevated position that dominates vast regions, including the Jordan Valley. The town faces frequent attacks from settlers and settler outposts, which hinder the expansion of settlement plans and impact the lives of residents and agriculture, especially olive farming. Qusra is a significant point of confrontation in the ongoing settlement expansion conflict, as it is bordered by settlements and outposts on surrounding hills, forming a geographical barrier that obstructs connectivity between settlement clusters in the area. Recurrent assaults and protests by local residents against settlement expansion are reported, with analyses indicating that controlling this area could contribute to establishing a wide settlement belt that threatens the unity of communication between different parts of the West Bank.
