BETHLEHEM, March 15, 2017 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation forces ordered on Wednesday a halt on the construction of two Palestinian homes in the town of al-Khader, south of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank, local sources said.

Ahmad Salah, who monitors Israeli settlement activities, told WAFA that IOF forces, accompanied by staff from the Israeli Civil Administration, raided the area of Um-Rokba and handed over a notice to Amr and Khaled Abd al-Salam, two brothers, to halt the construction of the two homes, under the pretext that they are being built without a permit.

Nine days ago, Israeli forces ordered a halt on the construction of a Palestinian family‘s home in the village of Beit Marsam, southwest of Hebron, despite being located within the community’s structural plan.
