The Civil Administration's supervision unit, acting on Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich's directive, demolished a series of illegal Palestinian buildings in strategic locations in northern Samaria on Tuesday morning. The demolished structures included a four-story, 800-square-meter building used for industry and housing and a 450-square-meter commercial and industrial building. The enforcement took place near Junction 9 and Route 60, close to the community of Emek Dotan, following recent terror attacks in the area.
The Civil Administration's supervision unit on Tuesday morning demolished a series of illegal Palestinian buildings in strategic locations in northern Samaria, acting on a directive from Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich. The operation targeted structures near Junction 9 and Route 60, close to the community of Emek Dotan, and included the destruction of a four-story, 800-square-meter building used for industry and housing, as well as a 450-square-meter commercial and industrial building. The enforcement follows a directive Smotrich issued over the weekend to map and demolish illegal construction in response to recent terror attacks in the area. The demolition is part of a broader policy to strengthen Israeli settlement and dismantle illegal Palestinian building, as part of what Smotrich described as an effort to return to northern Samaria. As The Zioneer reported earlier at 08:14, the Civil Administration demolished two large buildings in the same area; this update provides additional details on the scale and specific locations.
