Israeli authorities demolish al-Araqeeb village for 192nd time

Thursday 2-September-2021

Israeli authorities demolished on Thursday the al-Araqeeb village in the southern Negev for 192nd time.

The Bedouin families of al-Araqeeb rebuild the village every time the Israeli authorities demolish it to protect them from the heat of summer and the cold winter.

The Israeli authorities aim at forcing the residents of the village to leave it a thing which the families absolutely refuse.

Al-Araqeeb is a village located in the southern Negev and contains almost 40 houses mostly made of tin where around 300 people live.

Al-Araqeeb is one of 45 Negev villages that the Israeli authorities do not recognize and deprive them of basic rights and services such as health education and power and water networks.
