Israel has begun development of a West Bank reservoir, 'Herod's Pool', on privately owned Palestinian land in Fasayil. Settlers illegally diverted water from the village, and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich announced the project's start. Palestinians say it is part of a plan to seize land and resources, while COGAT acknowledged the diversion and promised an investigation.
