On February 18, Israeli forces demolished a residential complex in the Al-Harayeq area south of Hebron, near the Haggai settlement.

The complex consisted of two buildings (10 apartments total) — one three-storey building with six apartments and another two-storey building with four apartments.

The homes belonged to the Salhab family and housed more than 40 residents (some reports say around 50 people). The buildings belonged to Mohammed Salhab and his brothers. Salhab said the demolition happened despite him having legal documents proving the family’s ownership of the land and an ongoing court appeal against the demolition orders.

The owner said the demolition took place despite legal documents proving land ownership and an ongoing court appel.
