The Israeli bulldozers on Tuesday morning knocked down a Palestinian home in Jabal al-Mukabbir village south of Occupied Jerusalem city.
Israeli special forces and municipal crews escorted by sniffer dogs and bulldozers stormed al-Rebay’iya neighborhood in Jabal al-Mukabbir and cordoned off the home of al-Shaloudi family before they forced all the residents out and reduced the building to rubble.
The house owner Sana Hilseh al-Shaloudi said the Israeli occupation authorities demolished her family home without prior notification.
Sana said that as soon as the Israeli forces showed up at her home she contacted her lawyer. The latter managed to obtain an order delaying the demolition but to no avail.
The house owner added that she has been living in the 65-meter-square building with her husband and two daughters for three months.
Her husband Hamza said the Israeli municipal crews refused to adjourn the demolition paying no heed to a court rule obtained by the family’s lawyer to that very end.
