The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) demolished an agricultural pond in Birzeit town north of Ramallah and stopped the construction of a number of Palestinian homes south of Bethlehem on Monday evening.
According to local sources the IOF troops stormed Birzeit town accompanied by a bulldozer and demolished an irrigation pond without prior notice.
In a related development the IOF issued a stop-construction order against a number of houses in the Al-Masara village south of Bethlehem for being allegedly built without Israeli permit.
In Nablus violent clashes erupted in Beit Ur al-Tahta and Beit Liqya towns west of Ramallah after being violently stormed by IOF.
Also in Nablus a group of Jewish settlers stormed Yatma village and attacked local homes.
More than 700000 Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank make life more difficult for Palestinians living under the occupation.
Under international law all Jewish settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories are considered illegal.
