Previous violations:
It is worthy to mention that Al Ras al Ahmar, along all the other Palestinian communities in the Jordan Valley have been set as a target for the Israeli attacks and aggressions.
Most of the structures in the village have already received demolition orders in addition to numerous demolition campaigns that hit the area in recent years.
The village was forcefully evicted on November 31, 2013 by the Israeli Occupation Army who claimed the need for performing military skirmishes in the area. The dwellers were left shelter-less in the cold.
