Army demolishes room, uproots seedlings in Bethlehem |

On Wednesday, Israeli soldiers invaded the village of Al-Minya, southeast of the West Bank city of Bethlehem, demolishing an agricultural farm and uprooting olive trees.

Zayed Kawazba, head of the Al-Minya village council, told the Palestinian News Agency (WAFA) that soldiers demolished an agricultural hall and uprooted dozens of olive trees.

Kawazba added that the demolished room and uprooted trees are located on private land belonging to a local farmer, Mohammad Mahmoud Kawazba.

It should be noted that Al-Minya, as well as several villages and towns in the Bethlehem area, are subject to frequent violations by Israeli paramilitary settlers and soldiers.

Violations include repeated invasions, demolitions of homes and properties, and the uprooting of orchards and farmland.
