Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) demolished on Wednesday a home of a Palestinian family in Ramle city in 1948 Occupied Palestine. The home was knocked down under the protection of Israeli police and Special Forces at the pretext of lacking a construction permit.
A Palestinian activist in the city Ali al-Qerm pointed out that the home was owned by Mohammad al-Qerm family who has become homeless.
A state of anger has prevailed among Palestinian residents in the city in the wake of the incident as there are dozens of other homes in the town threatened with demolition.
The activist told Quds Press that the house’s owner possesses documents that prove his ownership of the home. The family only renovated parts of their house and did not build a new structure as what had been alleged by Israeli municipality of Ramle he said.
The Palestinian inhabitants in the city charge the municipality with hindering the issuance of construction permits in order to be able to evict Palestinians from the city through home-demolition policy to allow more room for settlers.
