The Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions issued a report entitled “ July 2020 Demolition and Displacement in the occupied West Bank (including occupied East Jerusalem) and within the state of Israel”. The report showed the number of demolitions carried out by Israel, the number of people affected and displaced from Palestinian families following the demolitions, and the reasons for it. In addition, the report pointed out that in many cases, notably in East Jerusalem, Israeli authorities condition Palestinians to either demolish their properties themselves or have the authorities do so. In an attempt to avoid having to pay the high fee of the Israeli authorities’ demolition operation and additional high fines, many Palestinians are forced to self-demolish.
