Israel closes Palestinian high school in Nablus

Sunday 14-October-2018

The Israeli occupation authorities on Sunday decided to close al-Lubban al-Sawiya High School located south of Nablus city in the northern West Bank.

Local sources said that the Israeli authorities informed the Palestinian Liaison that the decision would take effect starting Monday 15 October.

The same sources said that the Israeli authorities claimed the decision came as a punishment for the Palestinian students’ stone-throwing attacks on Israeli settler vehicles.

The targeted school is the only school built for al-Lubban and al-Sawiya villages in Nablus and it is attended by over 500 students.
