Report: Israel demolishes Bedouin village for 105th time
Palestinian news agency Ma’an reports that Israel has bulldozed an unrecognized Bedouin in the Negev Desert for the 105th time since June 2010.
Ma’an says al-Araqib village was demolished by officers from the Yoav Unit of the Israel Police. According to the Public Security Ministry’s website, the unit was created in 2012 on the instruction of the Coordination Directorate of Land Law Enforcement in the Negev “to aid in enforcing land laws and building laws.”
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld tells Ma’an that officers were dispatched to the village to carry out demolitions on a “number of buildings,” in accordance with a court order.
