An EU official called on Israel to stop the demolition of Palestinian homes in the areas he described as “marginalized areas”. in the West Bank. Sven Kühn von Burgsdorff, the European Union’s representative in Palestine, said in an official statement that the European Union is concerned about the risk of displacement of Palestinians and the demolition of their buildings and facilities. Burgsdorff delivered his speech during a joint visit with 20 European diplomats to two “neglected” villages near the city of Yatta, south of the West Bank city of Hebron. Burgsdorff and European diplomats spoke with Palestinian residents of the two villages, as Israel threatened to demolish their homes and displace them.“The displacement of Palestinian communities contradicts international law, and is an Israeli violation of their obligations as an occupying power under international humanitarian law,” Burgsdorff said.
