HEBRON, Thursday, June 4, 2020 (WAFA) - Israeli forces demolished today a Palestinian residential tin house in the town of Beit Ummar in the south of the occupied West Bank on the pretext it was built without a permit, displacing a family of 10 members, according to Mohammad Awad, a local anti-settlements activist.

The house owner, Ali al-Allami, built a house of tin on the location where a previous house he owned was demolished by the Israeli army on the pretext it was built without a permit.

Awad told WAFA that the forces demolished the tin house located near the Jerusalem-Hebron road before seizing its contents.

The Israeli army demolished last year the Allami house under the pretext it was built in an area classified as “C”, which is under full Israeli military control, prompting him to build the house of tin on the same site to shelter his family.
