The Occupation authorities pointed out on the possibility “To apply for a License” for the playground. This is part of the occupation’s policies against Palestinians, they allow Palestinians to file for a license and prove owning the plot, and then they reject the application , and eventually issue a final demolition order , on the pretext of building without a license.

People of Sosiya village donated a plot for the playground and got funding from an international institution to level it , and early this year they carried out leveling the plot for the playground , and while they were working at the site , the occupation forces raided the area , confiscated a (JCB) excavator operating at the site and kept it in “Kfat ‘Etzion” colony.
