IOF besieges Jubbet ad-Dib school after being reconstructed

Saturday 9-September-2017

Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) besieged on Saturday Jubbet ad-Dib school which is located to the east of Bethlehem city and was reconstructed earlier on Saturday days after it was demolished by the IOF.

Representative of the Wall and Settlement Resistance Committee Hasan Breijia told Quds Press that the activists managed to rebuild five classrooms using bricks in defiance of the Israeli unjust measures targeting Palestinian schools and kindergartens.

Breijia said that IOF soldiers broke into the area and fired flares tear gas canisters and rubber bullets at the activists in an attempt to force them to leave.

He added that several hours later the soldiers withdrew since the Palestinian activists refused to leave the place and persisted in rebuilding the school.

In August and few days ahead of the first day of school Israeli occupation forces (IOF) seized caravans used as classrooms at Jubbet ad-Dib school on the grounds that they had been built without permission.
