BETHLEHEM: The Israeli occupation forces stopped on Wednesday construction work on the second floor of the Kisan Village Council, east of Bethlehem. The Secretary of the Fatah Movement in Kisan, Ahmed Ghazal, said that an occupation army force stormed the Kisan Village Council headquarters and forced the construction workers on the second floor to stop work and leave the site, under the pretext of not having a license. He added that the occupation forces had notified years ago that the Kisan Village Council headquarters would be demolished. The Council has been a regular target to colonist attacks, involving raising the flags of the occupation state on it. Source: Palestine News and Information Agency – WAFA
