The targeted residence is a two-storey building with a total area of 280 m2. The first storey is used to store grains while the second is used as a residence inhabited by the 16-member-family. Jibreel also pointed that his brother built the first storey in 1988 while the second was built in 2003. He said that his brother prepared a file and handed it to the ‘Society of Saint Yves’ to defend his case in Israeli courts.
It must be pointed that ad Deirat have been targeted a lot recently by plowing lands, uprooting trees, and numerous demolition threats for various structures.
