The recent orders shall render 11 bedouin families homeless; a total of 85 people including 40 children will be without a home. The order will affect 26 other structures.The Israeli attacks on al Maleh have been intensified in recent years, rendering the primitive structures in the area under constant threat.
Meanwhile, the surrounding colonies are expanding on an unprecedented rate while knowing that every aspect of these colonists lives is being facilitated to encourage them to stay and attract more colonists. Furthermore, the Israeli Occupation has converted more than 70% of the total area of Wadi al Maleh into military zones and mine fields ripping the nomads gathering apart. Numerous casualties have been recorded during the past 5 years; casualties occurring due to random shootings and mines. The most recent victim was a boy who stepped on a mine while helping his father in herding.
7 military encampments and colonies spread all around Wadi al Maleh obstructing the expansion, natural growth, and development of 5 nomad gatherings spreading in the area. The Israeli colonies are slowly devouring what remains of Wadi al Maleh whereas Palestinians are deprived from their basic rights, rights that were granted by the International laws and conventions. 460 structures, serving around 2700 Palestinians, are about to become completely abandoned, if they remained, as a result of the Israeli measures.
More than 10000 dunums of lands are about to be captured to serve colonial purposes; all of this is happening under the nose of the international community which is standing still.
