Israeli municipality has razed down a Palestinian-owed house in the occupied West Jerusalem under the pretext of unauthorized construction.

They said that the bulldozers began in the morning tearing down a two-story house owned by the Tawil family in Silwan neighborhood.

Israeli police, providing protection to the municipality staff, closed off the area of the house and prevented people from reaching it as the bulldozers proceeded to demolish the house.

Palestinians in the city are forced to build on their lands without a permit because getting one is an almost impossible task from a far-right Israeli municipality that openly discriminates against the city’s 350,000 indigenous Palestinian population and favors settling it with Jews.

Israeli authorities also issued orders for demolition of three Palestinian constructions in South Hebron Hills, local activists reported.

Usama Makhamreh, an activist, said the so-called Israeli military government’s Planning and Administration Authority, accompanied by an army force, stormed an area of al-Karmel and handed demolition orders to three local residents against their houses.

One order affected a 160-square-meter house that is still in the construction phase, a 70-square-meter house where seven people live, and a 100-square–meter where a family lives.

The forces also handed a demolition order against an agricultural shed, as well as a recently paved road that serves the area communities.
