SHVUT AMI, West Bank, January 16, SPA -- Israeli forces set out Wednesday to evacuate two makeshift settlement outposts in the West Bank, an incremental move against a major obstacleto Israeli-Palestinian peace talks. Police and army forces arrived at the first outpost,Harchivi, near the Palestinian town of Nablus, and the fivepeople there fled at the sight of the forces, policespokesman Micky Rosenfeld said. No arrests were made. At the second outpost, Shvut Ami, also near Nablus, around20 teenage protesters gathered at the scene before forcesarrived, laying down barbed wire and rocks on the road, the Associated Press reported. Israel promised under a 2003 peace plan to evacuate abouttwo dozen outposts. As part of the renewal ofIsraeli-Palestinian peace talks, U.S. President George W. Bush pressed Israel last week to fulfill its commitment. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said earlier this weekthat the outposts' continued presence was a «disgrace,»but it was not clear if the government actually planned tomake any significant move against them soon. Little actionhas been taken since he took power two years ago.--SPA www.spa.gov.sa/518200
