Outposts in the West Bank are illegal makeshift encampments, like groups of caravans or clusters of prefab houses built on land that is privately owned by Palestinians. This kind of presence is to send the "occupying" belligerent the message that a new colony should be built on the location chosen by colonists
The Israeli leadership, including members of its organization structure and members of affiliating and or assisting entities, is a war belligerent in Gaza, and an 'occupying' belligerent in the West Bank since 1967, as they never lifted the declaration of war announced by the then-prime minister Levy Eshkol. Therefore, the following:
International law considers outposts and colonies in occupied territories to be illegal. The Fourth Geneva Convention and the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court prohibit an occupying belligerent from transferring its own population into the territory it occupies. This is considered a war crime, as it violates the prohibition against the acquisition of territory by force and undermines the rights of the occupied population.
