It is worth noting that IOF also demolished a house under construction near the Aqabat Jaber refugee camp in Jericho this morning under the pretext of "non-licensing".

IOF demolished Ali Karshan's house using five vehicles and a bulldozer, displacing its family members including children.

Throughout June 2022, 40 structures were demolished in the occupied West Bank and adjacent areas; six inhabited homes were among the structures demolished, leaving 26 Palestinians homeless, including 14 children, according to the B'Tselem NGO. In one of the cases, the owner was forced by the IOF to demolish his own home.
