IOF evicts 5 homes in the Jordan Valley for military drill

Tuesday 24-April-2018

The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) Tuesday morning forced five families from the Jordan Valley to evict their homes for military drill in the area.

Local activist Mutaz Basharat said an Israeli army force broke into the village in the morning hours and forced five families out of their homes in preparation to hold military drills in the area.

The families were informed that they would be evicted for two other separate days.

Almost on a weekly basis Israeli army orders Palestinian Bedouins residing in the Jordan Valley to leave their homes to make way for live-fire trainings.

Many Palestinians in the Jordan Valley see military exercises in firing zones as well as repeated house demolitions as an Israeli strategy to empty the land of Palestinians and confiscate it for further settlement expansion and agricultural production.
