It lies in a rich agricultural valley on the Green Line—the Israel-Palestine border. Since 1948, three-quarters of the village’s land has been expropriated by the Israeli government and two illegal Israeli-only settlements, Hadar Betar and Betar Illit, overlook the village on either side. Wadi Foquin is losing generations-old farmland due to settlement construction and the extension of Israel’s separation barrier, both illegal under international law. Dynamiting for settlement construction has also dried up many of the natural springs used for irrigation, and construction debris and raw sewage discharged from Betar Illit have contaminated fields and made them unsuitable for growing. Village life is further constricted by Israeli military checkpoints and Israeli-only bypass roads, which limit access to markets, jobs, schools, and healthcare facilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Chronicle of Our Land \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eshares intimate stories from the village of Wadi Foquin and bears witness to the intergenerational passage of land, love, and community over and against the violence of settlements, barriers, checkpoints, and occupation.
