Urgent appeal as Israel announces forced eviction of entire village

Source: EAPPI UK and Ireland

The Israeli government has announced that the mass forced displacement of the entire community of Masafer Yatta in the Occupied West Bank - more than 1,000 residents, including women, children and elderly people, will happen in the next few days. The Israeli army has already supervised the demolition of hundreds of homes, destruction of wells, olive groves and confiscation of livestock in the area.

Campaigners urge ICN readers to take urgent action to stop the imminent and largest expulsion and forced transfer of Palestinians since the start of the occupation.

This BBC report from Masafer Yatta - here, you see a snapshot of the demolitions, explains how illegal Israeli settlements grow while Palestinians are expelled: https://bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-middle-east-62635675…
