Rasa News Agency reports - According to reports, over a dozen families living in the area have been displaced after Zionist bulldozers destroyed their homes and prevented human rights activists from visiting the area and helping the villagers.

Demolitions are commonplace in the Jordan Valley as the Zionist authorities continue with settlement expansion policies in the area. Over 90 percent of the Jordan Valley is under full control of military occupation.

On January 9, Zionist military forces backed by bulldozers entered the village of Khirbet Ein Karzaliyah and destroyed the entire village, leaving over two dozen locals homeless. They claimed they are destroying houses which have been built without permission.

Rights activists, however, reject the claims, saying the demolitions are part of an ethnic cleansing campaign against Palestinians.
