Wednesday 11-November-2020

The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) on Wednesday afternoon demolished a residential building under construction in at-Tur neighborhood east of Jerusalem.

According to local sources Israeli bulldozers escorted by police forces demolished an unfinished building which belonged to Ahmed Abul-Hawwa in at-Tur neighborhood.

Police officers also physically assaulted and arrested Abul-Hawwa his wife and son as they were trying to prevent the demolition measure.

In another incident the Israeli occupation army handed Palestinian citizens demolition and stop-work orders against small homes and wells in the hamlets of at-Tawani and al-Rakeez in the east of Yatta (al-Khalil province).

Local official Fuaad al-Ammour said that Israeli soldiers also stormed different hamlets in the east of Yatta and photographed homes belongings to locals amid fears of intents to displace many families in the area.

Last week the Israeli army demolished a number of Palestinian-owned homes and structures in the same area and distributed demolition ultimatums against others.
