Occupation authority serves demolition notices to five Palestinian families
The Israeli occupation authority has served five Palestinian families from the village of Yatta to the south of the southern West Bank city of al-Khalil with demolition notices at the pretext that their homes were built without permits.
Sources active in resisting Jewish settlement told PIC that the IOF ordered the five families to leave their homes immediately because they are residing in them without a legal permit from the occupation authority.
The sources said that the demolition orders affected the families of Yousef al-Najjar, Ezzat al-Najjar, Muhammad al-Najjar, Hatem Ejbareen and Ishaq Jibril, adding that the real aim behind the demolition orders is to confiscate the land and use it to expand three nearby Jewish settlements.
