slated to be built.
The Palestinians threw stones
at Israeli troops attempting to
disperse them. Israeli soldiers re-
portedly used percussion
grenades and fired at the pro-
testers, but no Palestinians were
hurt.
The issue of Israeli settlement
expansion catapulted to the fore
of already tense Israeli-Pales-
tinian relations in December,
when Palestinians protested the
construction of new apartments
near the West Bank settlement
of Efrat.
Meanwhile, settler leaders
with the Council of Jewish Set-
tlements in Judea, Samaria and
Gaza have announced plans to
begin developing state lands that
lie within the planning bound-
aries of settlements in the terri-

land "after Arabs took over the
area a few days ago."
The council head, Aharon
Domb, was referring to several
Palestinians who came to the
area claiming the land was
theirs.
Mr. Domb rejected their
claims, saying "the Council of
Jewish Settlements in Judea,
Samaria and Gaza will not touch
any private lands."
Palestinians have also
launched demonstrations near
the settlements of Yakir and
Revava.
The government decided to re-
view all plans for expanding set-
tlements in the territories, even
if they were already pre-
approved.
Still, Palestinian leaders have
accused the Israeli government
of giving into the settlers. ❑
