RAMALLAH, The Israeli military government today issued an order for the demolition of a school in the Bedouin community of Ras al-Tin, east of Ramallah, according to local sources.

They said the order, which said the school will be demolished in 14 days, was left at the gate to the school.

There is no court order for the demolition, said the sources, and that lawyers were following up on this issue to prevent the demolition.

About 50 students from grade one until six go to this school, which was built last year and intended to serve the Bedouin communities in that area who lack basic services due to Israeli restrictions and efforts to force them out of their lands.
