JENIN, Monday, March 22, 2021 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation authorities informed a Palestinian resident of its intention to demolish his privately-owned car repair shop in the town of ‘Araba, south of Jenin, in the northern West Bank, according to the owner.

The owner, Husam Abu Salah, told WAFA Israeli forces handed him a notice to demolish the car repair shop within 72 hours, citing unpermitted construction as a pretext.

"Israel’s planning and building policy in the West Bank is aimed at preventing Palestinian development and dispossessing Palestinians of their land," said the Israeli information center for human rights in occupied territories, B'Tselem.
