Silent Nakba: IOF demolishes 47 homes in al-Naqab, exiles Palestinians
The Israeli occupation forces demolished 47 homes belonging to the Abu Asa bedouin family in the Palestinian desert of al-Naqab, leaving them in permanent exile.
The supreme Arab guidance committee of the region stated that Israeli occupation forces had planned road closures in the area early in the morning to prevent protests.
According to the committee, this demolition marks the largest single-day home demolition operation in decades.
The Bedouin groups residing in al-Naqab are traditional Arab tribes with a history of cultivating the land dating back to the 16th century.
