Monitoring settlements in the area, local activist, Ghassan Daghlas told Palestinian WAFA News Agency that the occupation army handed out demolition orders to 15 Palestinian families under the standard pretext of not having permission to build.

In related news, the Israeli authorities, on Sunday, expropriated 19 dunams of Palestinian land from Azzun Atma village, south of Qalqilia in the northern occupied West Bank, Quds News Network reported.
