Israeli occupation forces issued a demolition notice Sunday against Ayman Ajaj, a displaced resident of Tulkarm refugee camp, targeting his home in al-Mahadawi neighborhood in Shuyukha suburb north of Tulkarm, Shehab Wire reported. The notice came without advance warning to the homeowner.
Ajaj had previously been displaced from Tulkarm refugee camp before constructing the residence now slated for destruction. The demolition order adds to mounting pressure on Palestinians in the area, where Israeli authorities have systematically targeted civilian homes for removal. Residents of Shuyukha have faced repeated demolition notices and confiscation orders in recent years as part of broader settlement expansion policies in the northern West Bank.
