Date: 18/06/2014

Details:
On June 18, 2014, the Israeli occupation authorities leveled a fodder and grains warehouse, belonging to Muhammad al-Tall, in ar-Rahwa, south of ad-Dhahiriya town of the West Bank governorate of Hebron.
Army soldiers and officers of the Civil Administration riding a bulldozer showed up at noon, circled the area, and allowed the citizen to take the fodder out before embarking on razing the warehouse to the ground.
The warehouse was built with metal slabs and plastic curtains four years ago and was used for storing fodder and grains as al-Tall works in raising cattle and poultry.

The state authorities served al-Tall a stop-work (stop- construction) order on the warehouse two years ago, and a final order two months ago which al-Tall did not object because he was positive the Israeli authorities would not grant him a building permit and because his area is targeted with demolition operations.
