HEBRON, Israeli army demolition this morning of four residential shelters in Shaab al-Batm hamlet in Masafer Yatta in the south of the West Bank led to the displacement of 40 people, according to Fouad al-Imour, a local activist.

He told WAFA that the four shelters were built of brick and tin sheets and dwelled by four families.

The demolition, he explained, was carried out to make room for the expansion of the illegal Israeli colony of Avigal.
