France says slated demolition of Bedouin village a source of ‘deep concern’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleFrance expresses “deep concern” over the demolition of the Bedouin village of Khan al-Ahmar slated to take place next month after the High Court of Justice rejected an appeal by residents to void the evacuation.
The French Foreign Ministry says in a statement that the razing of the West Bank town outside the Israeli settlement of Kfar Adumim violates international law and “constitutes an immediate threat to a very vulnerable Palestinian community… located in a strategically important area for a two-state solution.”
The statement calls on Israeli authorities not to carry out the demolition and “refrain from taking measures aimed at expanding and perpetuating the settlements.”
