Israeli occupation forces demolish home, barn near Qalqiliya

Ma’an – 30/05/2011

QALQILIYA — Israeli forces on Monday demolished a home and a barn in the Bedouin village Arab Abu Farda south of Qalqiliya, locals said.

Forces bulldozed the home and barn of Abdul Qader Farda, village council president Salem Abu Farda told Ma’an.

The local official said officers from Israel’s civil administration claimed to have notified Qader Farda that his home would be demolished. But he never received any notices, the council president said.

Abu Farda said Israeli authorities were trying to force the local population from the area to expand the nearby Jewish-only Alfe Menashe settlement.

He urged human rights groups to visit the area, and said residents would not leave their land.

A spokesman for Israel’s civil administration said he would look into the report.
