BETHLEHEM, September 22, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli forces on Monday began bulldozing Palestinian-owned land in the village of Husan, west of Bethlehem, according to a local official.

Rami Hamamra, director of the Husan Village Council, told WAFA correspondent that the occupation forces razed the land in the residential area near the western entrance to the village, estimated at approximately 300 dunams.

In July, Israeli authorities seized a total of 31 dunams land through five military land seizure orders, aimed at establishing  three buffer zones around the Sidi Boaz outpost on al-Khader lands, and another on Arab al-Ta'amra lands in the Bethlehem Governorate.

During the same period. Israel carried out 75 demolitions affecting 122 structures, including 60 inhabited homes, 11 uninhabited ones, 22 agricultural facilities, and 26 livelihood-related structures. These demolitions were concentrated in the governorates of Jerusalem 53, Ramallah 22, and Bethlehem 18.
