Israeli occupation forces continue to target the right of Palestinians to housing in an attempt to force them to leave their lands and property. The latest such attempt took place in the village of Al Deirat which is located east of the town of Yatta in Hebron Governorate as Israeli occupation forces delivered military orders affecting houses, water cisterns and agricultural bruxes. Occupation forces issued the orders under the pretext of being built “without a permit”. This is the second time that these structures were targeted during 2010.

In the nearby village of Irfa’iyya, Israeli occupation forces issued in October, 2010, a Stop Work Order against the house of Mr. Basem Mohammad Hussein Al Omoor. The house has one story with a total area of 100 m2 in which 8 Palestinians (including 6 children) live since early 2010.

It has to be pointed out that occupation forces have demolished a house in November 2010 a house that was located close to Mr. Al Omoor’s house while a number of additional Stop Work Orders were distributed throughout the recent years against residential structures in the two communities.
