An-Najah News - According to local municipal source Israeli occupation forces today seized a large quantity of construction material from Tuqu town, southeast of Bethlehem.

 These measerments came in order to prevent a local Palestinian from proceeding with building his house.

Director of Tuqu municipality, Tayseer Abu Mefreh said that a large Israeli military force escorted two forklifts into the western part of the town, known as al-Halqum

where they seized 15 bundles of brick and 15 others of building stone intended for the construction of a house purportedly for being built without a license.

Israel demolishes Palestinian houses and structures in Area C of the occupied West Bank, which is under full Israeli military control, as a means to achieve “demographic control” of the occupied territories.
