Israeli occupation forces today demolished a sheep pen in Qalandiya village, northwest of Jerusalem, according to local sources.
They said that an army force escorted a bulldozer to the village, where the heavy machinery tore down the Palestinian-owned pen purportedly for being built without a license.
The Israeli occupation refuses to permit virtually any Palestinian construction in Area C, which constitutes 60 percent of the occupied West Bank and falls under full Israeli military control, forcing residents to build without obtaining rarely-granted permits to provide shelters for their families.
In contrast, The Israeli occupation much more easily gives over 700,000 illegal Jewish Israeli settlers in colonial settlements in the occupied territories building permits and provides them with roads, electricity, water and sewage systems that remain inaccessible to many neighboring Palestinians.
The “Civil Administration” is the name the Israeli occupation gives to the body administering its military occupation of the West Bank.
Soldiers in the oxymoronically named Civil Administration determine where Palestinians may live, where and when they may travel (including to other parts of the occupied territories like Gaza and East Jerusalem), whether they can build or expand homes on their own land, whether they own that land at all, whether an Israeli settler can takeover that land among others.
