There are four categories of #Demolitions :
Punitive demolitions: Houses demolished as punishment for the actions of people associated with the houses.
Administrative demolitions: Houses demolished for lack of a building permit. This happens in Area C and in East Jerusalem, under exclusive Israeli authority, though prior to the existence of Areas A, B & C it occurred in other areas as well. It is important to point out that in almost all cases, Palestinians have no choice but to build "illegally" as permits are rarely granted
Land-clearing operations/Military demolitions: Houses demolished by the IDF in the course of military operations for the purposes of clearing off a piece of land (for whatever reason), achieve a military goal or to kill wanted persons as part of Israel’s policy of extrajudicial executions
Undefined demolitions: These include mainly demolitions resulting from land-clearing operations and removal of Palestinian populations#maps

Removing Borders, Erasing Palestinians: Israeli Population Maps after 1967
How Israeli population cartography incorporated Palestinians through the very act of erasing them.

#Demolitions
How Israeli population cartography incorporated Palestinians through the very act of erasing them.
The borders that intrude into the bedroom also split towns in half and sever them from their surrounding regions. The construction of the infamous Wall within the West Bank has created enclaves in Barta’a and western Bethlehem. Despite officially being part of the West Bank, these Palestinian towns are left on the Israeli side of the Wall, which functions as a de facto new border on the ground. The border has literally moved around them. It is as if Canada built a wall around northern Vermont and then told the residents that they were all now illegal squatters on Canadian soil.#history #cartography #maps

Israel's Apartheid Regime and the Policy of Home Demolitions
Al-Haq video - July 2023
#Apartheid #Palestine #Demolitions #Dispossession #colonisation #AlHaq
Israel’s discriminatory planning and zoning regime has been designed, from the beginning, to facilitate Israel’s land appropriation and dispossession of the Palestinian people. This regime has enabled the appropriation of Palestinian land through various methods, which have prevented Palestinian urban development.Al-Haq video - July 2023

Israel deports human rights defender documenting Palestinian home demolitions – Mondoweiss – 27/11/2023
Alison Russell was detained by Israeli forces while documenting home demolitions in Masafer Yatta in the occupied West Bank. She was deported following a perfunctory hearing where Israeli police accused her of "supporting terrorism."
In the case of human rights defender Alison Russell, the far-fetched charges of “supporting terrorism” or “keyboard terrorism” cover up the real reason for her detention and deportation. In court, the state asserted that “she had many times disrupted the activities of the #IOF troops, whenever she came in contact with them”. Indeed, it is highly disturbing for the troops to have outside #observers and witnesses present where acts of oppression take place, which often constitute blatant violations of International Law.

🇵🇸 “We are now going to enter a long period of concentrated effort in enforcement and #demolitions. We are going to return the situation to the way it was.”
Israel's far-right Finance Minister, Bezalel Smotrich, has launched a campaign to demolish structures and expel Palestinians from ‘Area B’ of the West Bank.
Smotrich, who heads a pro-settler party and is himself a settler, accused the Palestinian Authority of investing significant resources to create territorial contiguity in the region, which he claims threatens Israeli control and causes environmental damage.
Under the 1993 #OsloAccords, it was agreed that the area Smotrich is referring to would be controlled by the Palestinian Authority (#PA).
