Israeli army orders Jordan valley villagers to unfence property

Saturday 10-July-2021

The Israeli occupation army on Saturday ordered a Palestinian family to remove a fence around a tract of land belonging to it in Khirbet al-Hemma hamlet in the northern Jordan Valley.

According to local sources Israeli forces stormed the hamlet and verbally notified the Faqha family of a military decision ordering them to remove a fence surrounding their land.

The piece of land is owned by a local resident from the family called Mahyoub Faqha.

In 2016 a horde of Jewish settlers seized swaths of land near the hamlet where they built an outpost and since then they have been harassing the local residents and preventing them from reaching or using their lands in the area in collaboration with the Israeli army.
