Occupied Palestinian Territories, Demolition and Displacement report June 2018 - ICAHD

This month, 22 structures were demolished in the occupied Palestinian Territories (including East Jerusalem) displacing 13 people – 7 of whom are children – and affecting a further 121 people.

All the demolitions and confiscations but one – a Punitive demolition of a house in Barta’a ash Sharqia – occurred on the grounds of lacking an Israeli-issued building permit. Most of the demolished structures supported agricultural, herding and commercial livelihoods.

Full list of Demolitions :

  • On 2 June, 2018, Israeli military forces ordered a halt on the construction of a school in the village of Mreiha. Local residents reported that Israeli forces confiscated the working equipment from the site and ordered the construction to stop, for allegedly being built without an Israeli buildingpermit.
