NORTHERN JORDAN
VALLEY, July 30, 2015 (WAFA) – Israeli forces Thursday morning ordered halting
the construction of a water well in Kardala, a village in the northern Jordan
Valley near the city of Tubas, said a municipal source.
Mayor of
al-Maleh ‘Aref Daraghmeh told WAFA Israeli forces raided Kardala, where they
handed him an order to halt the construction of a UNDP-funded water well that
has a capacity of 205 cubic meters.
Daraghmeh added
this was the second time he received a stop construction order for this well in
particular, purportedly for being constructed without proper license.
Khirbet Kardala
is a small locality of 800 dunums. It has a population of 121 persons according
to ARIJ’s 2006 statistics. The village’s population is mainly involved in
agricultural activities.
