Israeli occupation forces demolished a residential structure in the al-Hijra area of Dura, a town south of Hebron, the Ma'an news agency reported. The operation targeted a single-family dwelling in the densely populated Palestinian neighborhood.
The demolition adds to a pattern of home destructions in the southern West Bank, where Israeli authorities cite zoning violations and lack of building permits as justification for removals that Palestinians say are part of systematic displacement policies.
