Israeli occupation troops destroyed Thursday morning five Palestinian houses in the refugee camp of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.
According to Palestinian security sources, three Israeli D-9 military bulldozers, backed by several armored vehicles, resumed Thursday morning the tearing down of 5 houses in bloc (O) of Rafah refugee camp, which they partially demolished awhile ago.
Witnesses conveyed that two military bulldozers backed by three armored convoys moved to the area from a military post located at the border line separating Egypt and Gaza Strip deep into block.
In another development, a Palestinian man was transferred from the West Bank to Gaza by the Israeli military troops, Palestinian security sources said.
Moshref Bethor, 26, was expelled from Jenin to Gaza early Thursday. Bethor told the Qatar-based Al Jazeera TV that he had no idea he was being taken to Gaza.
“I am a member of Fatah in Jenin and spent a year at Israeli jail before Israel on Thursday expelled me from the West Bank town of Jenin to Gaza, claiming that I am dangerous to the security of Israelis,” Bethor was quoted as saying.
Also in the Strip, an Israeli incursion took place Thursday dawn in Batten Al Sameen, west of Khan Younis. Israeli troops stormed in to some Palestinian houses, said locals. (Albawaba.com)
