RESTRICTION SUMMARY: Nablus - 02 February 2023. Israeli bulldozers demolish a Palestinian owned house, built without a permit from the Israeli authorities in the area C which lies under their control since 1967, in the West Bank village of Duma.

STORYLINE:

Israeli forces Thursday demolished two Palestinian-owned houses in the village of Duma, south of the northern occupied West Bank city of Nablus, sources confirmed.

Over the past week, the state of Israel and its armed forces have escalated their violent tactics against Palestinians through various forms of collective punishment, including arbitrary arrests, home demolitions, and attempts to revoke citizenship and residency, all of which are illegal under both domestic and international law. These express policies are coupled with several recent killings by Israeli security forces, tallying over 30 Palestinians killed thus far in 2023, according to Adalah - The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel.
