The small illegal West Bank outpost of Sde Yonatan was evacuated and demolished Tuesday morning by Border Police and Civil Administration forces, the second such demolition of an illegal outpost in the territory in less than 48 hours.

Sde Yonatan, which lies close to the settlement of Michmash northeast of Jerusalem, has been built and demolished several times in the last two years and was most recently reestablished shortly after the beginning of the current war with Hamas.

According to the Civil Administration, the outpost is built on private Palestinian land.

    I am very critical of the Apartheid crimes and genocide being committed by Israel, but I’ll give them a small credit for this.

    They still need to do way more though.

      Yep. Because 1) it will come back like before as stated in the article, and 2) it being declared a closed military zone instead of returning it to West Banker.
