Israeli settlers have installed mobile homes on Palestinian-owned land between Burqa and Deir Dibwan, east of Ramallah and Al-Bireh, signaling the possible creation of a new outpost in the occupied West Bank. Local residents report that these makeshift units are intended to expand the Ramat Migron settlement. Historically, many settlements began as temporary structures before becoming permanent, often without initial official approval but later legalized by Israeli authorities. Recent data shows a high number of violations and attacks by Israeli forces and settlers in the region, with Ramallah and Al-Bireh experiencing the most incidents. International law considers all settlements in the West Bank illegal, yet around 500,000 Israeli settlers live there alongside about 3 million Palestinians.
