Israel destroys Arabs’ homes in Al-Naqab

For the second time this month, Israeli forces demolished on Sunday homes Bedouin family in Al-Naqab desert in southern Israel.

Members of a local committee dedicated to fighting Israeli government demolitions of Bedouin homes said that several bulldozers arrived in the village of Bir Hadaj on Sunday morning under heavily armed protection from Israeli occupation forces.

The bulldozers then tore down all the makeshift shelters built by members of the Abu Murayhil family after their houses were demolished on October 9.

Sunday’s demolitions left the family members homeless for the second time this month.

Commenting on the demolition, Said al-Kharumi, secretary of the Higher Guidance Committee of Arab Residents in Al-Naqab, said: “The Israeli occupation insists on targeting simple people, turning a deaf ear to all the solutions suggested by the village’s local committee.”

“This is a desperate attempt to get us to kneel,” al-Kharumi added. “We will be with our people there to follow up with the repercussions of this criminal racist attack.”

Bir Hadaj is one of 35 Bedouin villages considered “unrecognised” by the Israeli occupation state. According to ACRI, more than half of the approximately 160,000 Bedouins of Al-Naqab live in villages unrecognised by Israeli occupation authorities.
