Presently much of the villagers' traditional land, springs, gardens with olive and fig trees, near the Israeli settlement of Nachliel cannot be accessed, because their way is barred by Israeli soldiers or settlers, often with dogs.
Beitillu, together with Deir 'Ammar and Jammala, form the new town of Al-Ittihad.
