Israeli forces Wednesday demolished two Palestinian homes, a barn and a shed in Barta’a, a village behind the segregation wall southwest of Jenin, according to the owner of the homes. Ahmad Qabha told WAFA that a large military force raided the town, surrounded it from all sides before declaring it a closed military zone and demolished the barn, the shed and the 170-square-meters homes, which housed seven people. He said that the soldiers threw some furniture out before demolishing them but prevented the owner from removing the rest of the furniture. The army had demolished 11 shops in the area last month under the pretext of being built without permit. Residents also said they had received demolition orders for eight more shops.
