It should be marked that Karmel colony is founded on confiscated lands few meters from the hamlet's tents and basic structures. Colonists carry out various attacks to push people out of the area to take it over for the sake of colonial expansion.
Colonial groups such like " Reghafim" incite the so-called Israel Civil Administration to target Palestinian structures and quicken the process of demolishing structures served with military order. Such group is active in the areas of West Bank.
