Thursday 4-February-2021

The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Wednesday evening stormed the Palestinian Bedouin hamlet of Khirbet Himsa al-Fuqa in the northern Jordan Valley once again and removed new tents that were deployed by activists in the morning.

Local official Abdullah Abu Rahma said that the IOF dismantled five tents in the impoverished hamlet and confiscated seven cars belonging to activists.

Earlier the IOF dismantled and confiscated 20 tents and displaced the families in the area. The IOF already destroyed dozens of tents and structures and displaced the families in the hamlet several times before.

85 local residents including 45 children were rendered homeless as a result of this Israeli measure.
