BETHLEHEM, Monday, September 7, 2020 (WAFA) - Israeli occupation forces today issued demolition orders against several structures in the village of Kisan, east of the southern West Bank city of Bethlehem, according to local sources.

Ahmad Ghazal, deputy head of Kisan village council, told WAFA that occupation soldiers notified Mahmoud Ibayyat of their intention to demolish his two shacks used as an animal shelter and a tent located near the illegal settlement of Maale Amos, noting that he was given 20 days to evacuate the area or otherwise its forces will carry out the demolition and seize everything.

He added that the village has been a regular target of the settlers and Israeli army, the latest of which was the settlement project in Bethlehem that aims to expropriate about 3500 dunums of Kisan village land.

It noteworthy to mention that the occupation forces demolished several shacks in the village three weeks ago.
