BETHLEHEM, November 11, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces issued demolition orders on Tuesday for seven agricultural structures in the town of Nahalin, west of Bethlehem, continuing their pattern of violations against the town's residents and their property.

A local source told WAFA that the forces raided the areas of Khallat al-Adas, Wadi Salem, and Banias, and delivered demolition orders for agricultural structures belonging to the following residents: Mansour Khader, Dheeb Abdul Hamid Najajra, Ahmed Ali Salah Fanoun, Khalil al-Sheikh, Majdi Jamil Shakarna, and Zakaria Ahmed Fanoun.

For years, the residents of Nahalin have been subjected to a series of violations, including land confiscation, the establishment of settlement outposts, theft of agricultural crops, and attacks on farmers on their land. The town has also witnessed repeated closures of its entrances since the Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, preventing residents from accessing their lands. Wastewater from settlements has been pumped into the lands and water springs, in addition to ongoing arrests and raids.

The policy of demolitions and demolition orders against the town continues. In recent years, dozens of homes have been demolished, and hundreds more have received demolition and stop-work orders, reflecting the occupation's ongoing efforts to tighten its grip on the residents and displace them from their land.
