Israeli authorities on Thursday demolished a Palestinian home in Lod City in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1948.
Quds Press reported quoting eyewitnesses that large police forces threw a cordon around the area as several bulldozers started to demolish the house over “unlicensed construction”.
Na’im Abed al-Hadi the owner of the demolished house said that Israeli police forces broke into his home without prior notice smashed the doors terrorized his wife and children and forced them all out of the house before the demolition started.
Abed al-Hadi said that the Israeli authorities refused all possible solutions and negotiations and insisted on destroying his house.
Israeli authorities for years have been using “unlicensed construction” as an excuse to demolish Palestinian homes in the territories occupied since 1948 in an attempt to squeeze the Palestinians into small cantons while building new neighborhoods for Jewish settlers.
