RAMALLAH — Israeli occupation forces on Tuesday, September
5, handed out 50 orders to destroy Palestinian-owned property in a village near
Nablus north of the occupied West Bank, said the local council head.
Israeli forces raided the eastern and southern parts of the
village, and their demolition orders included one for the demolition of an
agricultural facility and another for a newly opened road, said Suleiman
Dawabsheh, head of the Duma Village Council.
According to Dawabsheh, the occupation authorities claimed
the land is "state-owned" property, but it is privately owned by Palestinians, who have documents to prove ownership, Jordan News Agency, Petra
reported.
The Palestinian Ministry of Local Government stated that the
Israeli orders are illegal and in violation of international norms and conventions, and it considers the Israeli action "a confiscation of the
Palestinians' right to cultivate their land, build and live on it, which is a
fundamental right guaranteed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights."
