Monday 20-August-2018

Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Monday afternoon stormed Eastern Barta’a town south of Jenin city and distributed notices to demolish the town’s market.

Local sources told the PIC reporter that the IOF raided the market while it was crowded with Palestinian citizens shopping for Eid al-Adha which starts Tuesday.

They added that 10 shops have been notified with demolition so far all of which owned by Palestinian merchants from Barta’a Jenin and Nablus.

Eastern Barta’a is isolated on the Israeli side of the Apartheid Wall and it has a large market frequented by Palestinians of the 1948 occupied territories.
