BETHLEHEM, October 24, 2013 (WAFA) – Israeli forces Thursday handed three Palestinians notices to stop construction on their houses in an area south of the town of Taqou, east of Bethlehem, as a prelude to demolish them, according to a local official.
Head of Taqou village council, Taysir Abu Mifreh, told WAFA that forces handed the three Palestinian households, including two brothers, notices to stop the work on their homes under the pretext they were being built without a permit and for being built in Area C, which falls under full Israeli control.
He said Israel has recently escalated its arbitrary security measures against residents in that area, which he said would limit urban growth of the town.
