The Taybeh plain is the target of an Israeli scheme to establish a “national dry port” on approximately 2,200 dunums of land. Palestinian inhabitants say the project threatens to seize vast tracts of agricultural land in the region. Residents have organized protests against the scheme, stressing that it targets the city’s only remaining natural open space.
