Israel threatens demolition of 50 Palestinian homes in Qalansuwa

Wednesday 11-July-2018

Tension has been running high in Qalansuwa in territories occupied in 1948 after Israeli forces notified the demolition of 50 Palestinian homes under the pretext of unlicensed construction.

The High Follow-Up Committee for Arab Citizens said in a statement that Israeli forces tear down houses under various pretexts across 1948 occupied territories.

Qalansuwa mayor Addul Baset Salama said the Palestinians have been seeking ways to respond to the demolition threat.

Salama said no serious actions have been made in response to Israel’s demolition policies in the area.

He said the fact that six Palestinian homes were demolished in one week is just “unbelievable”.
