Israeli bulldozers demolish 45 shacks near Hebron

HEBRON: Israeli occupation authorities have demolished 45 agricultural shacks in the At-Tayyibah area, located northwest of Hebron, according to local reports. Ayman Shalaldeh, a local Palestinian resident, reported that locals were only able to access the area after a week of being barred by Israeli forces. Upon their arrival, they discovered the destruction of 45 agricultural and residential shacks. Shalaldeh explained that one of the demolished structures was a two-story agricultural residence he owned, consisting of a water tank and storage area on the first floor and living quarters on the second, covering an area of 65 square meters and built of stone. He noted that these residences were licensed by the Tarqumiyah Municipality and had access to water and electricity services. Shalaldeh further indicated that Israeli forces consistently prevent farmers from reaching their lands, and that attacks by colonists have intensified since the beginning of the aggression on the Gaza Strip.
