February 2016 recorded the highest number of demolitions in the West Bank since we began recording in 2009.

During the month, Israeli forces destroyed, dismantled or confiscated 235 homes and other structures, displacing 331 Palestinians, including 174 children, and affecting another 740 Palestinians.

The Humanitarian Coordinator recently called on Israel to halt destruction of property in the West Bank and respect international law. j.mp/1pmxklY Show less
