Israeli army displaces families from homes for military drills

Saturday 12-November-2016

The Israeli occupation army on Friday night ordered the Bedouin residents of a-Ras al-Ahmar hamlet east of Tammun town in Nablus to evacuate their homes in order for its forces to conduct military drills in the coming days.

A resident told the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) that nine families including children would be homeless as a result of these drills that would take place for two days as of Sunday 13 November.

He complained that these military exercises would also destroy their cultivated fields and grazing land and would increase the financial burdens on the residents as a result of their displacement from their area.

He noted that the Israeli army had conducted similar drills one week ago and forced them to leave their homes.

Ras al-Ahmar is one of the most prominent Bedouin hamlets whose residents greatly suffer from Israel’s military drills and activities.
