The Israeli occupation authorities on December 02,2014 handed  out " stop-work" notices on residential tents and agricultural structures owned by citizens from Khirbet al-Tabban in Yatta town in Hebron governorate.

The military orders mentioned that the structures were unlicensed construction and compelled immediate termination of work. December 25,2014 was assigned for the so-called Planning Committee hearing session in the court of Beit El to consider  whether to demolish the structure or restore its status quo.

The chairman of Massafir Yatta society Othman Jabarin asserted that a force from Israel Civil Administration accompanied by army troops  stormed Khirbet al-Tabban and handed out the orders to citizens, who in this regard sought help from attorney Shlomo Lecker to object the occupation orders.

The military  orders reached out the following :

  1. The structure of citizen Khalid el-Omor : a residential tent that is a home for five members including 3 minors. The 70m2 structure was built in 2010 using metal arches that are roofed with shade cloth.
