Israel is mulling plans for a security barrier that would cut off the Jordan valley from the West Bank.

A senior official said the country's Defence Ministry had formulated the plan, which would connect the Jordan valley to Israel. The proposal has not yet been presented to the government for approval.

Also reported in The Anchorage Daily News:

The new segment would cut off the Jordan Valley - a region on the eastern side of the West Bank where Israel has a number of settlements - and connect it to Israel.

The Jordan Valley segment, which would be much further to the east, has not yet been presented to the government for approval, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

His comments provided the most detailed confirmation yet that a Jordan Valley segment is being considered by Israel. The official said that this segment would be the last to be built, if at all, depending on the security situation.
