context_page_description: Beit Duqqu is a Palestinian village in the Jerusalem Governorate, located northwest of Jerusalem in the northern West Bank. According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics, the town had a population of 1,600 in 2006.
context_section_description: Since the Six-Day War in 1967, Beit Duqqu has been under Israeli occupation. The population in the 1967 census conducted by the Israeli authorities was 438, of whom 16 were refugees. 
  After the 1995 accords, 10.6% of village land was classified as Area B, while the remaining 89.4% was classified as Area C. Israel has expropriated land from Beit Duqqu for the construction of the Israeli settlement Giv’at Ze’ev.
  Beit Duqqu along with 9 other Palestinian villages, Biddu, Beit 'Anan, Beit Surik, Qatanna, al-Qubeiba, Beit Ijza, Kharayib Umm al Lahimand and at Tira form the "Biddu enclave" which, according to Tanya Reinhart, are "imprisoned" behind a wall, cut off from their orchards and farmlands that are being seized in order to form the real estate reserves of the Jerusalem Corridor and to create a territorial continuity with Giv'at Ze'ev. The enclave will be linked to Ramallah by underpasses and a road that is fenced on both sides. From the "Biddu enclave" Palestinians will travel along a fenced road that passes under a bypass road to Bir Nabala enclave, then on a second underpass under Bypass 443 to Ramallah. 
  The main source of living is agriculture, mainly of apricots, olives and grapes.
