IOA orders demolition of Palestinian school

Tuesday 7-March-2023

The Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) approved the demolition of a Palestinian school in the Jub Al-Dhib community near Bethlehem on Monday evening.

Head of the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission Hassan Brijiyeh said that the Central Israeli Court issued a ruling in favor of the demolition of the al-Tahadi 5 School in the southern occupied West Bank village of Tamar effectively accepting a petition submitted by the Regavim settler group to demolish the structure.

Brijiyeh added that the new court ruling gave 60 days for appeal before the demolition is carried out.

On February 27 the court rejected an appeal submitted by the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission and the Society of St. Yves against the elementary school which was previously demolished and rebuilt in 2017.

Along the same line the IOA issued a confiscation order of 300 dunums in Umm Safa town north of Ramallah.

The Israeli occupation forces stormed the town on Monday evening and distributed the confiscation order with the aim of expending illegal settlements built in the nearby areas.
