Israeli excavators demolish a house in West Bank village

Israeli forces demolished a house in the village of Bruqin, west of Salfit in the occupied West Bank, citing its construction without a permit. The Israeli army stated that the demolition was part of "targeted searches" aimed at apprehending those responsible for the recent killing of a pregnant Israeli woman in the nearby settlement of Bruchin. 

The operation involved thorough searches of the property. The village has experienced heightened restrictions over the past week, with limited access for residents and controls on basic activities such as selling goods and accessing electricity. Movement in and out of the area has been tightly regulated during this period.
