Israeli forces demolish two agricultural rooms, animal shed west of Hebron

Israeli forces today demolished two agricultural rooms and a shed used for raising sheep to the west of Hebron, in the southern occupied West Bank.

Suleiman Jaafreh, an activist in anti-wall and settlement committees, said Israeli bulldozers tore down for the second time in four months a shed used for raising sheep owned by a local resident to the northwest of the town of Tarqumiyah, under the pretext of being located in area C of the West Bank.

Forces also demolished two agricultural rooms belonging to a Palestinian resident in the town of Idna. Forces reportedly damaged trees and land surrounding the rooms.

Israel refuses to permit any Palestinian construction in Area C, which makes up more than 60 percent of the occupied West Bank and falls under full Israeli military rule, forcing Palestinians to build without a permit.
