Israel military destroys Palestinian school in al-Khalil

Wednesday 11-July-2018

The Israeli army dismantled on Wednesday a Palestinian school in Khillet al-Daba’ east of Yatta in the southern occupied West Bank and seized the caravans that make up the school.

Head of the local village council Mohamed Raba’i said the army rolled into the village early Wednesday a day after declaring an intention to remove the school and took away the caravans that made up the classrooms.

Raba’i said the arbitrary demolition was carried out on the same day as schoolchildren joined a summer camp held by the Palestinian Education Ministry.

On Tuesday Israeli troops stormed the area and took away the school furniture threatening to tear it down under the pretext of unlicensed construction.
