"Israeli" endless series of aggressions against Palestinians has no ends.

In details, an "Israeli" court approved that 1,500 Bedouin residents of Sawah are to lose their homes that are soon to be demolished by the Zionist entity's authorities.


’Israel’ to Demolish Homes of 1500 Palestinian Bedouin In July, an "Israeli" court in Ber Sebaa rejected an appeal to delay the court-ordered demolitions, which are expected to take place in al-Naqab village on Thursday.
"We are waiting for our houses to be demolished, leaving us in the open between earth and sky," Nayif Khawatra, a resident of Sawah, stated.

He further asked for a delay until the Palestinian Bedouins arrange to move into a neighborhood in the nearby village of Hurah which is being expanded.
However, the "Israelis" refused.

Residents say their families have been living in the village since before the establishment of the Zionist entity in 1948, and they were not ordered to leave the village until 2007.
This comes after the so-called "Israeli" planning and construction authorities asked the residents to evacuate the village in 2007.

The "Israeli" army also declared the area a military zone.

In July 2011, "Israeli" forces placed cement barricades at the main entrance to Sawa with signs reading "Danger! Military zone: entry is forbidden."
Residents say they have been negotiating with Israeli authorities since 2007 to regulate Bedouin settlement. However, nothing was resolved and they only managed to delay the demolitions.

The residents appealed a court's order to demolish their homes by March 1
The judge postponed the demolitions until Aug. 15.
