The Israeli forces, on Wednesday, demolished a Palestinian-owned agricultural storehouse in Husan village, west of Bethlehem in the central West Bank, the Palestinian Information Center reported.

Local sources stated that an Israeli bulldozer accompanied by soldiers stormed the village and destroyed a storehouse used for agricultural purposes, under the commonly used pretext of ‘unlicensed construction’.

In related news, Israeli army bulldozers, on Wednesday, uprooted Palestinian-owned olive trees, west of Bethlehem city, in Husan village, the Palestinian WAFA News Agency reported.
