Occupation forces start demolishing homes near Bethlehem
Today, the Israeli occupation forces began demolishing two inhabited houses in the towns of Nahalin and Zatra, in Bethlehem Governorate, after they were previously notified to evacuate. This occurred despite the Palestinian court's refusal to halt the demolition process. The two homes are owned by Khaled. One of them, a two-story, level house with a total area of approximately 220 square meters, was demolished; it sheltered seven people. The other house is occupied by five individuals. In the first half of 2026, the occupation authorities carried out 341 demolition operations, resulting in the destruction of 740 structures and the displacement of 923 civilians, including 546 children and 431 women. Additionally, demolition orders have been issued for 254 other structures under the pretext of lack of building permits.
