Details:
 
On May 6, 2013, a large Israeli force broke into Abu al Ajaj area in the eastern side of Jiftlik village where they handed 12 families stop-work orders for their agricultural and residential structures. The orders said that the structures that are located in area classified ‘C’ according to Oslo Accords were unlicensed. A hearing session will be held on august 2, 2013 in Beit El Military Court in regard to the structures.
 
Omar Id’es, one of the victims, said: "we have been living in the area since 1979, long before the establishment of the nearby colony of Miswa; despite that, the Israeli measures of demolitions, arrests, harassments were unstoppable. The area suffered from four demolition campaigns in recent years."
