Israeli military bulldozers demolished sections of a residential house in the village of Aqraba, south of Nablus, after the structure sustained damage from "Energa" artillery shells, the Ma'an news agency reported. The demolition followed a strike on the building during an ongoing Israeli military operation in the area.
The incident marks the latest in a pattern of property destruction in the northern West Bank village. Israeli forces have conducted repeated operations in communities near Nablus in recent months. The full scope of damage to the house and surrounding properties remained unclear from initial reports.
