NZPA-Reuter Nablus, West Bank Ultra-Zionist settlers broke, out through the fence around' their West Bank settlement: during Tuesday night to defy, the Israeli Army by building; two makeshift houses and a; children’s playground. The settlers claim the right to live anywhere in the West! Bank, which was captured by Israel in 1967. The Israeli Cabinet is divided over the enlargement of, existing Jewish settlements! on captured Arab land. The!
Ultra Zionist Gush Emunim (Faith Bloc) is hoping to’ to force a decision in favour ;of expansion. ! Tension rose this week as! the army stood ready to i force the settlers of Kadumin back into the army camp where they were allowed to! build homes a year ago. Mrs Daniella Weiss, a (young mother who is chair-! ; man of the settlement group, told Reuters today that if the army tried to force the settl-! iers back, they would put: ! women and children on to !the new-claimed land.
