Israeli forces have helped transport mobile housing units on to an empty plot of land in the Tel Rumeida area of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank, Al Jazeera reports.

The trucks transporting the housing units were accompanied by Israeli military vehicles.

Issa Amro, coordinator of the Youth Against Settlements group, has told Al Jazeera that the mobile housing units were placed in territory designated H1, referring to the section of Hebron that is under the civil and security control of the Palestinian Authority.

He said this was the first time this had happened in Hebron, adding that it was a dangerous development.
