Israeli forces tore down a Palestinian resident's home in the West Bank yesterday (January 10).

Footage shows a pair of excavators fitted with hydraulic breakers hammering down the structure in the town of Kufr al-Dik in the Salfit Governorate.

Locals claimed that soldiers forced the resident, Ibrahim Muhammad Naji, out of his property and proceeded to destroy it.

The man allegedly received an eviction notice a week ago asking him and his family to vacate the house.

Palestinians and human rights groups consider the home demolitions a form of "collective punishment" in the disputed territory.

The United Nations said 2022 was the deadliest year for Palestinians in the West Bank, which has seen at least 171 killed, including more than 30 children, in the past year.

Israeli forces have reportedly destroyed around 950 homes along the West Bank and in Jerusalem, the Palestinian Land Research Centre said.
