Date: Tuesday, November 12 04:40 GMT
JERUSALEM – Israel plans to open a military base in contested Israeli-occupied territory in the West Bank.
The base is planned to be opened 4 miles east of Jerusalem in the Jabal al Baba region, which is to the west of the third most populous Israeli settlement, Ma’ale Adumim.
According to the IDF, the base is a carefully planned extension to help bolster Israeli defense in the region and to help bring security to the Israeli citizens who have settled there.
