Bethlehem: Israel demolished manufacturing facility in Al-Khader village

Israel yesterday demolished a manufacturing facility for the repair of vehicles at Al-Khader village in the Bethlehem province, south the occupied West Bank.

The coordinator of the National Committee Against Settlements, Ahmed Salah, told Quds Press that the Israeli occupation demolished an 80 square metre garage for repairing vehicles.

Salah noted that the facility demolished by the Israeli forces was owned by a Palestinian citizen, Gamal Al-Abed, and it was his only source of his income. It was demolished allegedly for being built “without a permit”, which is the pretext usually used by the occupation to justify the demolition of Palestinian property.
