Israeli army demolishes Palestinian facilities in Jordan Valley

Tuesday 19-February-2019

Israeli military bulldozers on Tuesday morning leveled Palestinian lands and demolished structures in Khirebt al-Ras al-Ahmar in the northern Jordan Valley.

Anti-settlement activist in the northern Jordan Valley Mootaz Besharat said Israeli bulldozers knocked down residential and livestock facilities owned by the Palestinian farmer Jihad Bani Oudeh and his mother in al-Ras al-Ahmar.

Besharat said an Israeli patrol and civil administration crews stormed the area and cordoned off Bani Oudeh’s tents and barracks before they ordered the family out to give way for the demolition.

The activist warned that such measures make part of Israeli attempts to expand the nearby illegal settlement outposts.
