A week after the Aqaba summit, in which the two sides (The Palestinians and the Israelis ) committed themselves to the proposed Roadmap, Israel exerted pressure on Palestinians, going on with its policy and heightened activities in the West Bank reflecting the strategy of seizing and deteriorating the initiative in its conflict with the Palestinians instead of reacting to maintain peace.
Last night (June 10,2003), The Israeli bulldozers backed by Israeli Troops and vehicles intruded into Tequa village east of Bethlehem and razed three dunums of agricultural land cultivate with field crops and uprooted more than 15 Olive trees. See Location map
