Land in Limbo: BBC Visits West Bank Village in Area Earmarked by Israel for Settlement

The BBC’s Middle East Correspondent, Lucy Williamson, visits the Palestinian community of Khan al Ahmar in the E1 area and the neighboring Israeli settlement of Maale Admumim to shed light on this complex situation.
