Nablus – Ma’an – Israeli soldiers distributed warnings of house demolitions on Wednesday to three Palestinians from Ad-Dayheh, near the city of Nablus.
Palestinian Authority official Ghassan Doghlus, who monitors settlements in the northern West Bank, stated that Israeli soldiers administered the notifications to Hazem Nather Kathem Antar, Abdel Qader Ahmad Hashem and Majdi Shukri Khalil Asi.
Doghlus highlighted that house demolitions in the area work in tandem with settlement expansion and called for an immediate end to “such harassment.”
The news of further house demolitions in the West Bank appears as UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon issued a statement on Wednesday calling for the end of house demolitions and evictions by the Israeli military in East Jerusalem.
