Citizen Najajreh asserted that Israel Civil Administration accompanied by a patrol from the army came to the place and handed him out the order.

The order said that the tent is unlicensed construction and compelled immediate termination of work. It also gave the owner  a one week deadline to either  demolish the structure or restore its previous status. Demolition cost will be billed by the occupation  to Najajreh if he doesn’t self-demolish his house on time.

As for the tent, it was established 5 years ago on a cement floor. It totals 25m2 in area and is inhabited by 12 members.
