Each year Israel occupies Palestinian land to establish settlements 

Israel has announced that it has merged 400 acres of Palestinian land near Bethlehem to its state land. The Israeli army said there was no claim of Palestinian ownership on the land in question. 

Whereas, a local Palestinian mayor said that Palestinians owned the land and harvested olive trees on them.

Under the international law, Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories are considered illegal.
