(MENAFN) The building of the part of the Separation Wall which snakes around the neighborhood of Azzoun in the south of the occupied West Bank city of Qalqiliya has been completed, Al-Resalah reported on Tuesday.
The Secretary of Azzoun Village Council, Abdel Karim Ayyoub, said that Israel's objective in building this wall is rejected by the indigenous population.
"It is simply working to impose its occupation policy," he said. "Israel wants to tighten its grip over Palestinian farmers in the area."
Israel started building the Separation Wall around this neighborhood in 2002. The Zionist occupation authorities open the gates for just 20 minutes three times a day.
