Israeli occupation forces forcibly evacuated a Palestinian family from their home this evening, transforming it into a military outpost in the village of Karma, to the south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank, according to local sources.

WAFA correspondent said Israeli occupation forces stormed Karma village, raided the house of Palestinian citizen Izz ad-Din Awawdeh and forcefully evacuated the family, converting the house into a military outpost.

Awawdeh told WAFA that the occupation forces seized his three-story home while he and his family were engaged in their workplaces. The forces raised the Israeli flag over the house and converted it into a military outpost.

Upon Awawdeh’s return to his home, he was informed of the eviction by the Israeli occupation army, and he and his 8-member family were prohibited from entering their own home. Subsequently, they sought refuge in the home of a relative in the neighboring town of Dura.

This incident is part of a broader pattern of home demolitions and forced
evacuations carried out by Israeli occupation authorities, with the aim of making life difficult for Palestinians in order to press them to leave.
