HEBRON, Thursday, March 04, 2021 (WAFA) – The Israeli military authorities today informed seven Palestinian families in the south of the West Bank that their homes will be demolished for construction without a permit, according to a local activist.

Rateb Jabour, an activist with the anti-settlement committees, said the military informed seven residents of the village of Maeen, east of Yatta, of its decision to demolish their homes, which each range in area between 130 and 160 square meters.

Dozens of other village homes have already been demolished under the same pretext of construction without a permit.

Maeen is located in what is classified as Area C of the occupied West Bank, which is under full Israeli military control preserved for its settlement activities and where its Palestinian residents are not allowed to build or develop.
